No dims Going To AIPAC

[Tehon]

As for AIPAC, it has no influence at all on US policy.

Yeah, that's why it is news when presidential candidates don't prostrate themselves in front of AIPAC.

Nothing to see here.

"No dims going to AIPAC"

FAKE NEWS!

The silence of the hypocrites is deafening.

The OP shouldn't have posted "No Dims" are going, but clearly the heat is on them to stay away.

Several 2020 Democrats to skip AIPAC conference after call to boycott
Liberal group MoveOn.org asked all 2020 presidential candidates to steer clear of the event.

Several Democratic presidential candidates will skip the American Israel Public Affairs Committee's policy conference this year after a prominent progressive group called on them to boycott the event.

Sens. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., Kamala Harris, D-Calif., and Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., will all ditch the conference, the Associated Press reported, and a spokesman for former Rep. Beto O’Rourke, D-Texas, told NBC News that he also will not attend.


Pete Buttigieg, the mayor of South Bend, Indiana, will not be going, The Jewish Week reported, and former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Julian Castro also won't show, according to HuffPost.

Former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz, who is considering running for president as an independent, will also skip the conference, the Associated Press reported.

Josh Orton, a policy director for Sanders, told NBC News that the senator is "concerned about the platform AIPAC is providing for leaders who have expressed bigotry and oppose a two-state solution.”

Of course it's news because it hasn't happened before except for Sanders in 2016. It tells us that there has been such a great change in the Democratic Party that the candidates do not believe they can get the nomination unless they show hostility towards Israel.

It's news because it gives the appearance that Israel is losing its grip on the Democrat party.

No one should have to pay fealty to Israel in the land of the free.

The fact that you think not prostrating oneself before AIPAC is an act of hostility towards Israel is a perfect illustration of my point.

The fact that you use terms like "prostrating oneself before AIPAC" or "have to pa fealty to Israel" indicates you have no point but only a bias.
