We don't have any leverage in the sense that Israel controls the Senate. The Senate is at least...a subservient, in my opinion, much too much. We should be more concerned about the United States' interest, rather than doing the bidding of Israel. This is a most unusual development.” ShouldWellsDoeStatesInterestUnitedPayOpinionUnited StatesToo MuchDevelopmentMajorsConcernedJewIsraelFinanceUnusualSenateBiddingSubservient Author:J.
