"*Support Please note that centrist newspapers (see my remarks above)  such as the Washington Post and New York Times do not print the phrase Israel lobby except in opinion columns.  They regularly use the phrase pro-Israel lobby to discuss organizations including but not limited to AIPAC.   William Safire, a nationally respected expert on word usage, has written that Israel lobby is a partisan phrasing. (see section in article).  And even Walt and Mearsheimer characterize their use of the phrase as questionable because not mainstream.  A careful perusal of the hits that the phrase gets on google or google books or google news will quickly reveal the anti-Israel slant of those who use ithe pharse ""Israel lobby.""  By heading an article with a phrase clearly linked with mild or strenuous opposition to Israel Wikipedia is promoting a POV position.
