Search Tips
In order to get more accurate results, our search has the following Google-Type search functionality:
+
If you use '+' in front of a word, then that word will be present in the search results.
ex: Harry +Potter will return results with the word 'Potter'.
-
If you use '-' in front of a word, then that word will be absent in the search results.
ex: Harry -Potter will return results without the word 'Potter'.
AND
If you use 'AND' between two words, then both of those words will be present in the search results.
ex: Harry AND Potter will return results with both 'Harry' and 'Potter'.
OR
If you use 'OR' between two words, then bth of those words may or may not be present in the search results.
ex: Harry OR Potter will return results with just 'Harry', results with just 'Potter' and results with both 'Harry' and 'Potter'.
NOT
If you use 'NOT' before a word, then that word will be absent in the search results.
ex: Harry NOT Potter will return results without the word 'Potter'.
""
Placing '""' around words will perform a phrase search. The search results will contain those words in that order.
ex: "Harry Potter" will return any results with 'Harry Potter' in them, but not 'Potter Harry'.
*
Using '*' in a word will perform a wildcard search. The '*' signifies any number of characters. Searches can not start with a wildcard.
ex: Pot*er will return results with words starting with 'Pot' and ending in 'er'. In this case, 'Potter' will be a match.

Lobbying for Zionism on Both Sides of the Atlantic
608
At the Israel America Council's national conference in 2018, Nancy Pelosi spoke these words: 'If this Capitol crumbled to the ground, the one thing that would remain is our commitment to...our cooperation with Israel.' That same year, pro-Israel groups and individuals spent over $22 million on lobbying and campaign contributions in the United States. The aim? To influence policy towards the Middle East, and Palestine in particular. But it's not just in the US that this is happening. Though rarely discussed, similar moves are being made in the UK and elsewhere too. Renowned historian Ilan Pappe exposes the methods used to affect political decisions, media coverage, scholarly work and public opinion on Israel and Palestine. In the UK, such efforts have been linked to the debate around anti-Semitism in the Labour Party with respect to Britain's role in, and responsibility for, the Palestine question. By examining the Balfour Declaration, the Suez crisis and, more recently, Britain's blind dovetailing of American policy, Pappe sets present-day events in their historical context, and shows how Israel has come to stifle debate on Palestine - with devastating consequences.
