Of course Israel is setting US foreign policy
Notice that in the last election you couldn't get any candidate to speak about Sharon's plan to seize the West Bank and Gaza?
Getting a straight forward answer was like pulling teeth, and if you even bring the subject up you get accused of being anti-semitic.
It's all very convenient - the manufacturing sector trashed, the military industrial complex being the only thing keeping the economy up, naturally you need a "security threat" - which is not to say that they don't hate us and wish us harm, and do threaten us, it's simply to explain how things work.
The root cause of this is our tolerance of Israel's expansion. Rabin told Sharon what was going to happen, and it is.
