October 4, 2006 The government of Poland, moving to avoid getting embroiled in anti-Israel politics, last night abruptly canceled a scheduled speech by a professor at New York University who has become hostile to the Jewish state, just hours before the event was to have taken place at Poland's consulate here in New York.
The decision to cancel the speech, which was billed as being about "The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy," is a signal of the quickening entente between free Poland and Israel, a relationship that is all the more remarkable for the fact that among the founders of Israel were Jews fleeing anti-Semitism in Poland. A Polish diplomat told The New York Sun that the speech, by the NYU professor Tony Judt, would have been inappropriate for the Polish consulate. Comment from Jeff Blankfort: This is how the Zionist NY Sun reported the story. What is clear is that the Jewish establishment/lobby has veto power over not only the US political system on every issue that affects Israel or Jews (which is considerable) but on foreign countries, as well. This situation exists not because of any witchcraft or inherent trickery on the part of the members of the Jewish establishment whose dedication to Israel exceeds any concern for the welfare of their fellow non-Jewish citizens, but because those who pretend to be the guardians of our liberties are not only in denial regarding the lobby's power but they have joined the lobby in its efforts to marginalize those who tell the truth about what has become a veritable Fifth Column undermining what little remains of democracy in America.

October 3, 2006 Last week the London Review of Books did a great service to free speech in this country by enabling Prof. John Mearsheimer of the University of Chicago to have a debate on the Israel Lobby that he thought would never take place. The event was titled "The Israel Lobby - Does it Have Too Much Influence on U.S. Foreign Policy?" and its main purpose was to debate the pros and cons of a paper Mearsheimer wrote with Prof. Stephen Walt of Harvard University called "The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy." It was a perfect opportunity for the much criticized national media to report on a key issue in our foreign policy.
