Also it was written well before Israel was at the forefront of politics in the US. The relationship has been there for decades, but took a back burner to well everything else the US was doing at the time. Like the 20+ year misadventure to Afghanistan/Iraq.
Which don't get me wrong the whole political situation even then was at least influenced by the formation and continued support for Israel, but it was definitely less obvious to the average person then.
