  • Israel, the Pro-Israel Lobby, American Jews and the Iran Deal
    Jonathan Rynhold Israel, the Pro-Israel Lobby, American Jews and the Iran deal American Jews were deeply divided over the 2015 Iran deal. Such divisions over Israel-related issues were nothing new. But this time the argument was not only particularly vitriolic, it was also especially significant because those in favor of the deal were confronting an Israeli consensus on an issue considered to be vital to Israeli security, a commitment to which was shared in principle by the overwhelming majority of American Jews who were skeptical of the agreement’s efficacy, even as they approved of it. This paper seeks to explain the cause of these divisions over the Iran deal and their political significance for Israel’s relations with American Jewry. Contrary to the terms of the core debate about the relationship of American Jews with Israel, which centers on the extent of American Jewish attachment to Israel, it argues that the key struggle was over the power to determine the political meaning of ‘pro-Israel’ in this critical context and that the divide was primarily a part of a wider partisan divide among Americans in general. In theoretical terms, “the authority to determine the shared meanings that constitute the identities, interests and practices… is perhaps the most subtle and most effective form of power because it encapsulates the institutional power to include or exclude, to legitimize and authorize”1. Strong and resilient shared meanings function as cultural ‘containers’ that serve as an important resource for mobilizing political support. The more robust the cultural container the more the political struggle is likely to be focused on interpreting and appropriating it to advance and legitimize a political agenda, rather than seeking to challenge it head-on.2 The pro-Israel orientation in American political culture is one such shared-meaning and it is centered on the American commitment to Israeli security.
