    Really, though?

    Glenn,

    Do you really think that "accusations of antisemitism" are the only reason for the lockstep ideology of Congress on Israel issues?

    If that's all it is, you would think that would be a fairly easy obstacle to overcome -- the Congresspeople who would otherwise seek to act more evenhandedly would simply find some easily available Jewish cover.

    I think that at this point one has to concede that it is simply a question of entrenchment -- they really believe what they're saying.

    S
