Michael
Oren’s account of his years as Israeli ambassador to the United States
is the gift that just keeps on giving. We have already seen how the
memoir (Ally: My Journey Across the American-Israeli Divide) reveals just how ultra-sensitive Israel’s elite is to American opinion, but also how contemptuous he is of Jewish Americans.
But there is even more in the book, and here at the site we are
delighted it reached the best seller list briefly, and sorry that it has
now slipped off. Ally is a valuable look at what Israel is
really like in 2015. - See more at:
