Irreconcilable Differences? - Steven T. Rosenthal
(ISBN-0874518970)
Each of the ten chapters in Rosenthal's (history, Univ. of Hartford;
The Politics of Dependency) study touch on key issues, such as the
Pollard affair, the intifada, and the "Who Is a Jew?" controversy, in
the relationship between American Jews and Israel. The author examines
the evolution of the relationship over the decades, arguing that the
unquestioning support American Jews once had for Israel has eroded and
that crucial tensions exist today. Israel, now a modern power rather
than a fledging nation, is no longer dependent upon the unblinking
support of American Jews, who are consumed with immediate concerns
(such as the issues raised by the high degree of intermarriage) at
home. Many readers might nevertheless argue that the American Jewish
community still plays a powerful role, however, and its support, while
evolving, remains essential. This clearly written, if controversial,
book, will best be appreciated by informed readers who have background
knowledge of the subject.
