I think the argument I most frequently see is that Israel is protecting US interests over there.How has united states citizens benefited from israel being over 300 billion of wasted tax dollars?

What makes the AIPAC truly insidious is how they exploit the language of solidarity. They claim a history of Black/Jewish unity at the same time as they are funding candidates who demonize Black people, attack civil rights and displace Black representatives. It's the nastiest kind of manipulation disguised as friendship. I especially hate this, because they openly act to undermine the causes the CBC is supposed to champion, and too many of its members are happy to play along.![]()
The Congressional Black Caucus’s Silent Partnership With AIPAC
The influential group of lawmakers has damaged its reputation as “conscience of the Congress” by staying silent on the Gaza genocide.www.thenation.com
I knew a lot of this, but the rabbit hole runs deep. AIPAC uses a lot of black non-profits to infiltrate and get young politicians on board. Including 100 Black Men. They’ll never get a dollar from me.
I wish they would’ve included some information on AIPAC’s lead c00n lap dog Bakari Sellars.
I noticed you defending Trump using the same racist, anti-Black tropes about crime. What's your excuse for that?Ya notice the progressives in this thread never have smoke for Trump or ANY Republican?
No ones fawning over MTG

Don't twist my words. I criticized a lobbying organization for its conduct, not Jewish people. Weaponizing accusations of antisemitism to protect powerful institutions from scrutiny is dishonest and cowardly. The fact that you're deflecting instead of addressing what's actually being said about how that group funds some of the most anti-Black politicians (while pretending to be friends) really says everything.lmao word they're almost as insidious as the Jews

What Israel has done in Gaza is 100% genocide. No objective or rational person can deny or justify that fact.
The issue is with those who continue to throw their badge of moral superiority in the face of others. Their nobility has shined so bright, that they're blind to a simple fact - "you can't help someone else until you help yourself".
Right now, you can't help yourself because a group of self-serving and hateful people control all the levers of power. And they are spitting on and setting fire to any of the checks and guardrails that were created to prevent the very abuses of power they're currently relishing in. That was avoidable...
When you take a break and come down from the mountain top and realize everything is on fire - Who's going to speak up on your behalf and save you?
Your shadow is not scary. Stop being afraid of it.What Israel did is obviously genocide and Dems (along with anyone who isn't a POS) should be against it on general principle.
But people overrate the electoral importance of this, it's not why Trump won. Dems could've taken any position on Gaza and they still would've lost. Even if it never happened, they still would've lost. Trump's cult is unfortunately too fervent and there are too many people who would simply never vote for a black woman in the current anti-woke social climate.
