I doubt that the protagonists are going to speak openly about their relations with the Israel lobby, but in the event that Mr Synder has access to the details, I’m sure other readers will be as interested as I am....
Worse, he characterizes it and the actions of the Israel occupation as a “virulent spiral of vengeance” instead of Palestine’s resistance to the virulence of the Israeli occupation’s imposed terror and suffering.
The recent resolution that was passed in the House of Representatives supporting Israel in their fight against Hizbollah by a 410-8 margin, clearly shows that the Israel lobby has a level of influence unmatched by any foreign power.

 The London Fog: July 18, 2004
Speaking at the former Nazi military headquarters in Berlin where the leading plotters were executed after Hitler survived the July 20, 1944 coup attempt, Schroeder cited their courage as an emphatic example of why Germany belongs in the European community.
Schroeder said July 20 is a reminder to Germans to ``defend again and again the values of freedom and tolerance that we consider so self-evident today.'' A recent poll of Germans age 16 indicated why that is important, finding 39 percent of them couldn't say why July 20, 1944, was a significant date.
Martin defended the gender balance of his cabinet by saying that of the 33 female Liberals elected three weeks ago, "18 are being sworn in as either ministers, ministers of state or parliamentary secretaries." That amounts to about 55 per cent, he pointed out.

 Bush Says He'll Fire Any Aide Who 'Committed a Crime' - New York Times
WASHINGTON, July 18 - President Bush said today that he would fire anyone in his administration who has broken the law in the unmasking of a C.I.A. officer two years ago.
In the months after the name of the officer, Valerie Plame Wilson, was made public in July 2003, White House officials have said they believe that no one working for the administration was part of the disclosure, and that anyone found to have been "involved" in the disclosure would be dismissed.
Wilson's husband, former ambassador Joseph C. Wilson IV, has asserted that his wife was unmasked, and her career consequently damaged, in retaliation for his criticism of the Bush administration's policy toward Iraq.
