At the risk of stirring up a big bees nest here....there's some six million Jews in the US. Now that isn't a huge percentage of 300 odd million, but I am ASSUMING that there is a relatively large percentage of those 6 million that have either family, friends, or financial interests in what happens in Israel. I am also ASSUMING that a relatively large percentage of those with interests are fairly powerful people with strong political influence, whether it be monetary or otherwise.
