Edward Said oppsummerer om Oslo-avtalene, om Camp David, og ikke minst om AIPAC sin tyngde i USA's politikk.
En av hans konklusjoner:
"Since the mid 1980s I have
tried to impress on the PLO leadership, and every Palestinian or Arab I have
met, that the quest for a protector in the White House is a complete chimera,
since all recent presidents have been devoted to Zionist aims, and that the
only way to change US policy is through a mass campaign on behalf of
Palestinian human rights, out-flanking the Zionist establishment and going
straight to the American people."
Og videre:
... "unless American Zionism is taken on in its homelands, all
attempts to parley with the United States or Israel will lead to the same
dismal and discrediting outcome."
