so, the lottery does not want people saying that israel and the united states often have different interests. that might undermine the special relationships. instead, what the lobby wants is for everyone to be on the same page. israel is an indispensable ally, and there is virtually nothing that they ever do that is wrong command before the united states should support israel. the argument made in the book is that from israel's point of view this is foolish policy. certainly bullish from america's point of view, but we argue israel is a normal country. like every other country, israel sometimes pursues smart policies and sometimes it pursues foolish policies. we have never seen a country that got it right every time. so when israel gets it wrong we ought to be able to criticize, just like we do the united states when it gets it wrong. but the special relationships prohibits you from doing that. to maintain that a rather unusual relationship, you have to make sure there is no criticism. and this is, i think, what explains why there is hardly any criticism of as well. >> host: in the spinning
