Mearsheimer/Walt research paper

The controversial academic paper with the title, The Israeli lobby and U.S foreign policy(even the title might be viewed as provocative by some people), has been the focus of much debate,for instance, it prompted the distinguished Harward law professor Allan Dershowitz to write a 15000-word response.

I haven´t had the time to read it in it´s entirety yet, so i will not even try to comment on the paper for the time being. The Christian Science Monitor has a nice roundup of the debate though. For those of you, whose definition of a nice weekend dosen´t include reading a 83 page research paper, there is a slightly more digestible version at LRB.
