Re: Forget the Israel Lobby. The Hill's Next Big Player Is Made in India.
While I am a bit happy that Indians are beginning to have some impact in the USA, it is not correct to compare that with that of the Israelies.
More than any organized lobby, Israelis are a lot more integrated into the American population; Jews are in all branches of government and industry and so matters pertaining to Israel many a times don't even seem like they are 'foreign policy'.
India and Indians will never reach that level of integration - which may not be a bad thing by the way.
That is right. Jews are Europeans, just like the ruling elite of America. They are considered kin by most Americans.
