Dispatches
Friday, Dec 4, 2009
Dispatches investigates one of the most powerful and influential
political lobbies in Britain, which is working in support of the
interests of the State of Israel.
Despite wielding great
influence among the highest realms of British politics and media,
little is known about the individuals and groups which collectively are
known as the pro-Israel lobby.
Political commentator Peter
Oborne sets out to establish who they are, how they are funded, how
they work and what influence they have, from the key groups to the
wealthy individuals who help bankroll the lobbying.
He
investigates how accountable, transparent and open to scrutiny the
lobby is, particularly in regard to its funding and financial support
of MPs.
The pro-Israel lobby aims to shape the debate about
Britain's relationship with Israel and future foreign policies relating
to it.
Oborne examines how the lobby operates from within
parliament and the tactics it employs behind the scenes when engaging
with print and broadcast media.
