Anyone read the Mearsheimer & Walt Paper?
I'm only 10 pages in (it's about 40 pages, not including 40 pages of endnotes), but I already sense an anti-Semitic undertone, not to mention lots of holes and unanswered questions in the logic. I can't wait to finish it and find out exactly what the point of this paper was, if not to incite a riotous debate amongst scholars.

Just curious if anyone else had read it and, if so what their take on it is.

Also can't wait to read Dershowitz's 40-page response.

The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy

1. Read the whole thing & hurry right back to us
And deliver more of your profound insights please. We're eagerly awaiting a perceptive in depth analysis exposing the shallowness and lack of intellectual rigor on the part of the good professors, obvious hucksters that they are.
