The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy

The Israel Lobby refers to influential groups and individuals in the U.S. that advocate for strong support of Israel. These groups aim to shape U.S. foreign policy to favor Israel’s interests, often by lobbying politicians, funding campaigns, and influencing public opinion. Their efforts can impact decisions on Middle East peace, military aid, and diplomatic relations. While they represent one aspect of U.S. policymaking, their activities highlight how organized advocacy can influence a country’s foreign policy priorities, reflecting broader debates about the balance between domestic interest groups and national strategy.
