Mamet is one of the people who wrote a short bit for the Alan
Dershowitz edited book "What Israel means to me" (other authors in the
book - Christina Applegate, William Bennett, Pat Robertson, Paul
Buhle, Ed Koch).

It's been a few months since I read Mamet's 2-3 page essay in the
bookstore.  One part I remember - he said he was walking around some
liberal yuppie neighborhood in New York or Boston or somewhere, when
he saw a bumper sticker that said "I$rael out of the territorie$".
Mamet said the real meaning of this bumper sticker was "Hook-nosed
Jews die".  Mamet then went on to bash Noam Chomsky, something I
understand he does with more verbiage in this new book.
