RW Christian support in the US for Israel is solid and growing. There are probably more Christian Zionists in the US than Jewish ones. Republicans can now use the IP issue as a wedge.
US liberals/progressives are continuing to embrace non-interventionism for various reasons, the first being the iraq/afhan wars, which are being viewed incorrectly as American Imperialism - that is an invention of the far left and Russia. The second reason is the Russian and libertarian influence, who have successfully argued on social media to liberals that the US and Israel are evil and need to mind their own business.
The truth is that Israel doesn't need US support, which says a lot more about the US than Israel.
The Arab spring brought us more failed nations, so the apathy you refer to isn't going to affect Israelis, it's going to affect the 6 million+ Palestinian "refugees" we help subsidize and the aid we pay to third world countries like Egypt and Afghanistan.
The world is moving past the IP conflict.
Eta I think the authors point is that the business of anti-israelism is fading, and the websites and writers are moving on to other things.
You know, the modoweisses, memos, ei, whatreallyhappened, ifamericanskbew, rense, prisonplanet, veteranstoday, aljazeera, alarabya, al manar etc etc.
