I think that's a pretty bad book. It's big on the line that Israel has hijacked American foreign policy. There's one essay by the obnoxious Jeffrey Blankfort bashing Noam Chomsky for failing to see this, and insisting instead on the usefulness of Israel to Washington. Cockburn has some icky asides about Jewish ownership of the media.

I interviewed Joel Schalit about the book: <http://www.leftbusinessobserver.com/Radio.html#031127>.
