The British have of course been pretty good at inflicting friendly fire on *each other* in various wars.

At any rate, that's not the real point. The point is that if Congress is 'bought and paid for' by the lobbyists, THAT is the real problem, and can't be blamed on another country.

Britain (and Europaean countries) have enough trouble with bribery and lobbying; but we have many more restrictions on it than the Americans do - perhaps that is the root problem in the American system - not Israel.
