I hope you're right. But the Israel-firsters make a lot of noise, and the America-firsters hang quietly in the back. They don't have allies in academia, in the media, in the think tanks, etc. I just read this incredible account in The New Yorker about one Sheldon Adelson, third-richest man in America and a huge Israel booster. It was pretty disgusting. The article's honesty about him was a nice departure from the crap you get on Fox.
