Pro-Israel Lobbyist Hits Back at Prosecutors
[AP/Washington Post] Mark Lavie - A pro-Israel lobbyist cleared of espionage-related charges by a U.S. judge lashed out at his accusers in an interview broadcast Wednesday in Israel. Steven Rosen, formerly of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, told Israel's Channel 10 TV that the charges against him were part of an anti-Israel, anti-Jewish search for Israeli "spies under every bed." "I did nothing wrong," he said. "Who did something wrong is the people who brought this case, not just that they were incorrect, but that the attitude they had about Jews, Israel, AIPAC, was completely false, and unfortunately, a lot of that nonsense is still out there."
