I've got no great objection to citing material from a Democracy Now transcript to make a point, but that isn't what you did -- you interspersed what might be original writing with cut-and-pasted material, and paraphrased those chunks which you didn't copy outright. That's called plagiarism.

A transcript of the August 15 Democracy Now broadcast can be found here: Web Link

You cut-and-pasted:
argued the pro-Israel lobby, American Israel Public Affairs Committee, or AIPAC, has unduly influenced the United States to compromise its own security in order to advance the interests of Israel.

They believe that the end times could come at any moment, and they're looking for signs of that, so they're sympathetic to supporting Israel for these reasons. And so they provide a strong grassroots base. This is the Republican base.


About the only place where you didn't paraphrase or outright copy was where you decided to lie in order to hide the fact that not everybody agrees with the study's authors:
Professor Stephen Walt of Harvard University and John Mearsheimer of the University of Chicago, published a highly acclaimed paper

But the Democracy Now transcript says:
In March of this year, a study on the role of the Israel lobby in US foreign policy caused an uproar in the academic community and in the media. The paper's authors, Professor Stephen Walt of Harvard University and John Mearsheimer of the University of Chicago ...

Uproar isn't acclaim, and you're not being honest with your readers, either about having material you produced yourself, or about what is actually going on.

Sometime in our lives most of us have to learn we can't have everything we want.
