The article caused an uproar and was called anti-Semitic in many US newspapers and magazines. The London Review of Books debate took place at Cooper Union in New York City and was captured by ScribeMedia on their behalf. The panelists were John Mearscheimer, Shlomo Ben-Ami, Martin Indyk, Tony Judt, Rashid Khalidi and Dennis Ross.
