Jewish Power: Inside the American Jewish Establishment, J.J. Goldberg, 1996

Jewish Polemics, Arthur Hertzberg, 1992, p.34, "The change in American Jewish policy had something to do with the increasing power and self-confidence of Jews in American life; but it is undeniable that the worldwide acclaim for Israel in 1967 and thereafter added cubits to the stature of American Jews. The "Jewish lobby" was no longer spoken of in whispers, and its official leaders no longer pretended that they advanced their case only by gentle persuasion. This new forthrightness on behalf of Israel has brought Jews, as a community, more prominently into the American political process than they had ever been before. The Jewish lobby, particularly the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), has fought both Republican and Democratic administrations, not only on behalf of Israel but also against almost every attempt to do something for any of the Arab states. Paradoxically, these very ethnic, parochial efforts by Jewish organizations have served to move their leaders into the main current of American politics. The Jewish lobby, especially when it has been most intransigent, has acquired power enough to place it among the forces with which even the most powerful American politicians must reckon; senators have good reason to believe that they risk their seats if they antagonize AIPAC and its allies, and simmilar fears have been felt in the White House itself."
