    Alan, thanks for interesting comments.
    Having a strong Jewish or pro-Israel lobby is a good things and American Jews should be proud of it. The lobby does not control the US government or economy; it is just a strong influential voice. Instead of evoking ancient fears and blaming anti-Semites for implying conspiracies, we could do better discussing the lobby’ platform openly and explaining that a strong Jewish lobby is an important part of public forum and policy making. Existence of this lobby, as well as others such as Cuban, Armenian, etc. , does not mean disloyalty to America.
