'Basically,
this pamphlet makes the error of blaming US Middle East policy on the
so-called Israel Lobby, deflecting attention from the oil industry,
letting corporate elites off the hook, and running the risk of
playing into the hands of people who hide behind freedom of speech to
preach intolerance, diminishing our sense of safety and diversity,
and allowing right-wing Zionists to tar all critics of their actions
with the same brush, causing legitimate and necessary criticism to be
dismissed by apologists for Israel, denying it the corrective
feedback that might save it from the worldwide disrespect it now
suffers'
