Text: Mearsheimer and Walt interview There is no question that the book has been savaged in the mainstream media in the United States, which is to be expected. But one should also recognize that we have travelled widely in the United States to talk about the book, and everywhere we go, we find that the audiences are clearly on our side, although there are always a few people at each event who harshly criticise us.....The bottom line is that I think a huge number of Americans agree with what we have to say.

Classes too pro-Israel? GWU instructor quits amid charges of bias toward Jewish state "It became more of an Israeli politics class," said Berlin, noting that while understanding Zionism is important to studying the Arab-Israeli conflict, he wondered why they were they spending half of the semester learning about it....Kamens said she was "a little surprised" that the latter book was selected for an upper-level political science course because of the book's structure.
