He concludes that not only do America and \u003cbr\u003eIsrael not share any core values, but their principles are inherently incompatible. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePaone suggests that Jewish Americans are the only ones with the capacity to deflect Israel from its present self-destructive course, because the U.S. government has lost all control over its creation. Though, Paone also notes,\u003cbr\u003eit may already be too late. The coalition of \"know-nothing\" \u003cbr\u003eultra-orthodox, settlers and right-wing nationalists from the former Soviet Union are getting close to running \u003cbr\u003eIsrael on its own, including, and this is most worrisome,\u003cbr\u003eits nuclear arsenal.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arthur J.
