DESCRIPTION:Grant F. Smith is the author of seven books about the Israel lobby, and 
 research director of IRmep.  His most recent books are "Big Israel: How 
 Israel's Lobby Moves America" (2016) and "The Israel Lobby Enters State 
 Government: Rise of the Virginia Israel Advisory Board" (2019). 
 \n\nContinuing an election year tradition, Smith will present his most 
 recent research findings about Israel affinity organization legislative, 
 executive agency and state government lobbying initiatives. He will discuss 
 in depth the trajectory, roles and relative importance of Jewish 
 establishment lobbying (such as AIPAC and the Zionist Organization of 
 America) vs. relatively more recent Christian Zionist lobbying.\n\nSmith 
 will also explore the Israel lobby's latest major program—importing and 
 subsidizing Israeli companies to compete with domestic U.S. companies.  As 
 a case study, Smith will give an update on recent initiatives and the cloud 
 of corruption enveloping the Virginia Israel Advisory Board.\n\nSmith's 
 2016 election year roundup has more than 37,000 YouTube views. A 
 presentation of key findings from his book "Big Israel" is now approaching 
 100,000 YouTube views.\n\nAccolades for Smith's 2016 election year 
 roundup:\n\n"Every American needs to watch this. Well done!" X., 
 2017\n\n"...a history of American politicians' traitorous actions since 
 1948. I blame them as much as the Israeli lobby." J. Malokas, 
 2018\n\n"Thank you for all the information. I will look for Big Israel - a 
 must read." N. Khan, 2018\n\n"....he absolutely 100% predicted the future!"
