Yes!

And, Yes.
I strongly recommend taking a look at the recent publication by James Bamford entitled "Spy Fail" (Foreign Spies, Moles, Saboteurs, and the Collapse of America's Counterintelligence). It speaks directly to many of the issues you speak of, the reasoning behind them, and exposes some pretty inconvenient truths. Israel has one of the biggest, most successful and most subversive propaganda machines on the planet. Bamford is a total liberal, so for him to write something like that must have been like shitting a pineapple backwards for him. It's a real eye-opener!
Bamford was also the guy who wrote "The Puzzle Palace" back in the 80's which almost landed him in prison for exposing the NSA (which before that was only known as "No Such Agency"). (Ironically, I almost got tossed in the slammer in SE Asia in the mid 90's just for having a copy of the book. Long story.)
FCD!
How YOU doing?
I'll check it out, thanks for the recommendation.
