(Israel cannot protect US interests in the Middle East). This sentence is the main meaning of the article of two renowned professors, John Marshaymr from the University of Chicago and Stephen Volt from Harvard University in which they have expressed some bold comments about the influence of the Zionist lobby on the foreign policy of the United States. The frankness of this article is unique among the articles of professors of US universities. This article was published in the western magazines that faced with the harsh reaction of several Jewish. They accused the authors of this article to being anti-Semitism. The authors in this article have well explained the role of the Zionist lobby in the regulation of foreign of foreign policy, especially in the war of Iraq and its impact on the universities, academics, the media and urge of US officials to deal with Iran and Syria. This article shows that the Americans policy of pressure on Syria, Iran, Hamas and Hezbollah has a principal element of the Zionist lobby in the US. In a few decades ago and specifically from the 1967 war between the Arabs and Israel, ties with Israel became the fundamental issue of US policy in the Middle East that provoked the anger of Arab and Islamic world and not only on affected the security of the United States the security of the whole world.
This case is unique in the history of the United States, but why the United States wants to hit its own benefits and its allies to improve the interests of another country? Many believe that common strategic interests and moral necessity, has contributed to this issue but neither of these issues can justify the high financial aids of US to Israel. The pressure group of Zionist has such an influence on US foreign policy so that no other pressure is equal to it, since it has convinced the politicians that the interests of both countries are the same. US financial assistance to Israel has been since 1973 up to now, and it has exceeded the volume of all foreign aid to all countries. These aids have been ten million dollars until 2004. US annually pays five hundred dollars to each of the residents of Israel, and against the other countries, gives this money completely at the moment.
Israel has the right to use the money however he likes and without any condition and sometimes Israel uses this money in the opposite direction with US̓ interests. America has ignored the Israeli nuclear issue and he allows this country to be aware of the security ROM files that his NATO allies were not aware of it.
The United States has always supported Israel diplomatically against the UN Security Council condemning Israel's interest and since 1980 US has vetoed more than thirty-two resolutions of this regime, although that figure is more than every time that all member have voted to it.
The United States has stood against all efforts of Arab countries to raise the issue of Israel's nuclear weapons to the IAEA's nuclear issue. During the war of 1973 the main side of conversation of Arabs for stopping the war was the United States and the same thing happened in the Sloe war and the Americans always supported the Israel during the negotiations and even the Americans admitted that in the Camp David negotiations in 2000, the United States has been Israel's attorney.

The heavy responsibility of supporting the Israel
Supporting the Israel has caused an unrest and complicated relations of US with Arab countries and the oil extraction stop (oil shock 1973), is one of the results of these relationships that has caused huge losses on the economy of the West on US interests in the region, for example Washington to prevent the Islamic Republic of Iran did not find the Israel as a dependable point. Persian Gulf War (the oil) also showed that Israel's strategic load is heavy, because the United States has used the base of the Israeli military, prompted a negative reaction of his allies in the war with Iraq, and he was forced instead of using bases of Israel, install the Patriot missile batteries. So this would strengthen the United States to stop Israel, which would like to participate in the war and occupation of Iraq in 2003.
The United States justifies his aid to Israel by saying that this country is cooperating with the United States to fight with the terrorism whose origin is in the Arab and Islamic countries and in dealing with rogue countries that are supporting this community and strives to achieve Weapons of mass destruction, along with the United States. In such a situation, Israel has a huge Freedom extensively in the treatment to the Palestinians and he does not feel any pressure to sign the peace treaty.
And he continues the massacre of Palestinians and arrests whomever he wants and shows the scene as the Americans and they have a common enemy, but the fact is that Israel has become a heavy burden. (Terrorism) is not a single community, but it includes multiple community with different political tendencies, for example the terrorism that threatens Israel does not threaten the United States, except when it stands against it (such as Hezbollah of Lebanon in 1982).
Furthermore, the Palestinians actions is not a useless anti-Israeli violence aimed against the West, but it is a reaction to Israel that has occupied the Gaza Strip, which is an important factor for acts of violence that the United States faces with it, and that is the relationship of this country with Israel, and this victory over terrorism has faced him with a double problem. The violent countries of the Middle East, have no impact on US interests, but they have a negative impact on the interests of Israel, so that even if these countries achieve the nuclear weapon, and a war breaks out, they will face to a costly answer and access to these weapons by terrorist groups probably is very unlikely, because it is difficult to know its origin. The existence of nuclear weapons in Israel, has forced many governments to attempt to achieve this weapon.
In spite of US support for Israel, his behavior does not resemble like the ally of US. Israel always violates all desires and international agreements (such as a settlement freeze and assassinating the Palestinian leaders).
The military espionage activities have been put on the hands of rivals of the United States. Even the actions of Israel are against the United States that will not happen among the allies, like John Bullard, who has told the great mysteries of the case series of the last eighties centuries to Israel or Larry Franklin the employee of Pentagon who has transferred many military and diplomatic secrets through IPAQ To Israel. But the followers of Israel mention some other reasons that approve the funds to Israel for example they say that Israel is a weak country which is surrounded by other strong governments or that Israel is a democratic government or the pretext that the Jews have suffered a lot from the historic crimes, so due to this reasons Israel deserves particular engagements and they also believe that the behavior of Israel is more ethical than the behavior of the enemies, but in a deep look, none of these reasons and excuses are satisfying.

Israel is not in danger The Israelis have always visualized themselves as David against Goliath, but the reverse is true. Israelis against had superior weapons against Arabs, as it became apparent clear in the war of 1947-48 between Arabs and Israel. In 1956 the Israelis quickly won over Egypt and in 1967, they have been superior on Egypt and Syria and it was all thanks to more powerful weapons. Today, Israel is the strongest country in the Middle East and it has some treaties with Egypt and Jordan, and Saudi Arabia has proposed peace agreement to Israel, Russia will not help to Iraq and Syria, and Iraq is and will be in war and Iran is thousands kilometers far from it. The Palestinians are too weak. So strategically, Israel is stronger than all countries in the region and if helping to weak countries is necessary, it is better to help the enemies of Israel.
If Israel has a democratic government, many other countries are democracies too, but they do not benefit from US aid. Moreover, the United States has destroyed some democratic governments in the past, he has appointed some dictators to bring the interests of the United States. After all, some aspects of Israeli democracy are in contrast with the American values in which all citizens, regardless of religion, race and color are equal, because Israel has been built based on Jewish state and its citizenship is defined legal only on the basis of ancestry and blood relationship, so one million and three hundred thousand Arabs who are its residents are viewed as second-class citizens.
Oppression of Jews
A third pretext that arises is due to the story of hardship and misery that the Jews have experienced, especially in the forest generation (Holocaust) so Israel has been established and forming a government for them is safer for them. When expressing this claim surprisingly they themselves have done new crimes against other people who are innocent, specifically the crimes they have committed against the Palestinian people. The First Israeli leaders have confessed to this point. Ben Gurion had told to Goldman, the president of the Jewish World Congress: If I was an Arab leader, I would never t made a peace with Israel and this is normal, because we have taken their country. We return to the old Israel, but such a country existed two thousand years ago. Israeli leaders have always denied the existence of the Palestinian state, Rabin did not propose their sovereignty and even Ehud Barak’s proposal which is said, is a generous proposal, if achieved, would only allow the formation of refugee camps under Israeli control. However the disastrous history of Jews does not allow the United to help Israel.
