Author Walter Russell Mead joins David M. Rubenstein once again to examine the connections between Israel, the Jewish people, and American political history. In this conversation, they dive into the history of Jewish people in America, including their experience of the Civil War and World War II, and discuss the rise of an Israel lobby in US politics, the influence of the Cold War, and the role of evangelicals in American support for Israel.
