Patriotic Americans vs. Israel

[pbel]

Thunderbird, et al,

OK, it is true that Israel a big recipient of Aid from the US (so what).

Israel is the largest cumulative recipient of U.S. foreign assistance since World War II. From 1976-2004, Israel was the largest annual recipient of U.S. foreign assistance, having been supplanted by Iraq. Since 1985, the United States has provided nearly $3 billion in grants annually to Israel.

Almost all U.S. bilateral aid to Israel is in the form of military assistance. In the past, Israel also had received significant economic assistance. Strong congressional support for Israel has resulted in Israel’s receiving benefits not available to other countries. For example, Israel can use some U.S. military assistance both for research and development in the United States and for military purchases from Israeli manufacturers. SOURCE: CRS Report RL33476​

Since 1948, the aid given to Israel evolved from helping preserve the original intent of a Jewish Nation Home, to much more. In recent decades, probably the 1970's onward, the purpose of the aid has further a strong bilateral arrangement which reflects are shared values in government and culture; not to forget the great concern that both countries hold in the matter of strategic goals in the Middle East (concern over Iran, Syria, Islamic extremism).

(COMMENT)

There have been at times, when the two counties have experienced some political and diplomatic differences discord. But of the many security and defense agreements the US has entered into since the end of WWII, only the Five-Eyes (the US + Canada, UK, Australia, New Zealand) has proven as durable, successful and reliable as the one between Israel and the US.

Congressional Research Report 10 JUNE 2015 US Aid to Israel
Though aid to Israel has detractors as well as supporters, overall U.S. public support for Israel remains strong. According to a February 2015 Gallup poll that measured Americans’ sympathies toward the disputants in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, 62% said their sympathies lie with the Israelis and 16% said their sympathies lie with the Palestinians. According to a February 2015 Pew Research Center poll, “48% of respondents say that the level of U.S. support for Israel is about right; 29% say the U.S. is not supportive enough of Israel, while 18% say it is too supportive.” Neither of these surveys explicitly examined public opinion regarding U.S. aid to Israel.
SOURCE: CRS Report RL33222 & CRS Report RL33476, Israel: Background and U.S. Relations ​

Over the last 7+ decades, each of the successor Presidents (and Administrations), and Congressional Lawmakers have "considered Israel to be a reliable partner in the region, and U.S. aid packages for Israel have reflected this sentiment."

Israel is not an "Apartheid" country. It doesn't even come close to the definition by the International Criminal Court. It is merely a anti-Israeli Humanitarian claim to put forward an inflammatory language. Who betrayed "America" and put Israel first." Again, this is inflammatory language designed to incite a hostile image of Israel in the minds unfamiliar with the Jihadist and Fedayeen activity in the Region and the International Threat they have posed since the 1972 Munich Olympic Games (Palestinian attackers—Afif, Nazzal, Chic Thaa, Hamid and Jamal—killed during the Fürstenfeldbruck gun battle were delivered to Libya, where they received heroes' funerals and were buried with full military honors). {Rule 2 Article 51(2) of Additional Protocol I prohibits Acts or threats of violence the primary purpose of which is to spread terror among the civilian population are prohibited.}

Let's put this in perspective before we get all excited. Yes, annually we will give Israel about $3B. The Program cost for the F-22 Raptor is $66.7 billion. It is much better to insure that Israel has a Qualitative Military Advantage in equipment and technology, then to give the advantage in numbers by the Arab Countries still hostile; unable to make peace.

Most Respectfully,

AIPAC controls our government through a cabalistic campaign donations against American Interests...

Yet the islam lobby is spending 10 times what AIPAC is spending on buying politicians in the US. Why do you think that Pakistan can afford a space programme while US vets are homeless, because they gat massive amounts of US aid. Who pays the most into the UN coffers that goes to fund terrorism and violence in gaza.

Arab lobby in the United States - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

According to Mitchell Bard in an article for the Jewish Virtual Library, Isaiah L. Kenen, the founder of American Zionist Committee for Public Affairs or "AZCPA" (which became American Israel Public Affairs Committee or "AIPAC"), wrote of the Arab lobby's roots in the 1950s "petro-diplomatic complex" that comprised the "oil industry, missionaries, and diplomats." Bard states that in 1951 King Saud of Saudi Arabia asked U.S. diplomats to finance a pro-Arab lobby to counter AZCPA.[4] Bard in his book The Arab Lobby: The Invisible Alliance That Undermines America's Interests in the Middle East, states that the approach has not changed since the days of King Saud;[5] the basic message, according to Bard, is that the Saudis and the Gulf States have the oil and will supply it to America and its allies on the condition that America keeps the Arab ruling families in power.[6] Bard further states that the subsidiary clause is that the Arab oil states will also purchase arms ($100 billion worth over the last 50 years) to keep themselves in power and able to produce oil.[7]

Bard also alleges "blackmail" . He claims that from time to time the United States criticized the oil states for denying human rights to their own citizens, sponsoring militants who attack Israel, spreading extremist forms of Islam around the world, and supporting terrorism in many countries, but this criticism in rapidly reigned in by threatening to cut off the oil supply.[7]


Many of the players in the Arab lobby are paid directly by Arab governments, the New York Times describes them as an "elite band of former members of Congress, former diplomats and power brokers who have helped Middle Eastern nations navigate diplomatic waters here on delicate issues like arms deals, terrorism, oil and trade restrictions." Powerful lobbyists working on behalf of the Arab lobby include Bob Livingston, Tony Podesta, and Toby Moffett. Arab governments have paid "tens of millions of dollars" to "top" lobbying firms that work to influence the American government.[10] This includes the Saudi Arabia lobby, Egypt lobby and the Libya lobby.

In the wake of 9/11, Saudi Arabia hired the lobbying firms Patton Boggs and Qorvis, paying $14 million a year.[



So you see money talks, but OIL money talks louder

You're a fucking idiot lumping different Arab lobbies together some who are at war with each other Scum Bag ZioNazi nut!

The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), a private Jewish American group that claims to be “America’s pro-Israel lobby,” is considered by The New York Times to be, “the most important organization affecting America’s relationship with Israel.” In 1997, Fortune magazine called AIPAC the second most powerful lobby in America. Since that time AIPAC’s star has risen steadily, and is now widely regarded as the most powerful lobby in America.

I know I said that I would retire from this shark tank, but your behavior is so outrageous that I had to speak up, pbel. You asked Phoenell for a link that there are also Arab lobbies in Washington, and when he does as he's asked, you go crazy. Yes, there are also Arab lobbies, and that can be pointed out, just like you point out AIPAC in every one of your posts. You can debate something civilly, and look at different points of view.

Re-read the post knucklehead...I asked for a link to his claim for saying the ISLAMIC Lobby was 10 times more funded or powerful than AIPAC.

 

[montelatici]

Furthermore, the various political lobbies of the Arab countries register as Foreign Agents, AIPAC does not. As such they have far more strict reporting requirements in terms of who they give money to etc.

The ISLAMOMORON once again uses an oxymoron when he is shown to be uninformed as to the truth. You asked for a link thinking that none would be available and the first one of the page shows just how much control Saudi alone has over US politics. The latest list of lobby influence puts Saudi in the front followed by Pakistan and the NRG with all of Israel's lobby groups coming in at 10th place

The Arab Lobby in America and Influence over the U.S. - The Daily Beast

Oh Alan Dershowitz, there's a neutral source we can take seriously. lol Dershowitz loves Israel almost as much as he hates the USA. Dershowitz is so busy raping little girls, I'm surprised he found time to write lying justifications for Israeli atrocities.

Note to conservatives: Dershowitz favors Obama

the Saudi lobby has beaten the pro-Israel lobby over and over again in head-to-head conflicts, such as the sale of sophisticated weapons

The American people gain when we sell weapons to the Saudis. The Israelis get billions in weapons for free courtesy of the U.S. taxpayer. See the difference?

"The Saudis have taken a different tact from the Israeli lobby, focusing a top-down rather than bottom-up approach to lobbying.

The Israeli lobby never buys politicians?!

The methodology employed by the Arab lobby is thus totally inconsistent with democratic governance, because it does not reflect the will of the people but rather the corruption of the elite, while the Israeli lobby seems to operate within the parameters of democratic processes.

Fortune Magazine named AIPAC the second-most-powerful group in Washington! They spend millions subverting the democratic process and bribing politicians. Fortunately for America AIPAC's influence may be waning. They are having trouble pushing the U.S. into fighting another war for Israel - this time with Iran.

Poll Right-Wing Pro-Israel Lobbying Group AIPAC Losing Influence - The ITT List

Quote: Forty percent of respondents expressing an opinion felt that AIPAC's influence decreases the chance for a resolution in the Israel/Palestinian conflict, only 27 percent felt that AIPAC increases the chance of a resolution. Seventy-four percent of the respondents who expressed an opinion said they had seen members of Congress vote contrary to the U.S. national interest at least once as a result of AIPAC's influence.

And don't forget the media. Pro-Israel media bosses lie to the American people nonstop, covering up Israeli brutality.

I agree with you that America should not fight Iran for Israel's sake. On the flip side, America should not prevent Israel from fighting Iran on her own.

I deeply resent anyone saying the U.S. and Israel share values. Israel is an apartheid state that discriminates against Palestinians and murders the innocent.

countries hold in the matter of strategic goals in the Middle East

Israel is a liability.

overall U.S. public support for Israel remains strong.

If true only because of the lies of the media bosses.

the International Threat they have posed since the 1972 Munich Olympic Games

The Muslim countries do not possess much in the way of military power. Israel is barely threatened, the U.S. not at all.

Discrimination Against Palestinian Citizens of Israel IMEU

INSTITUTIONALIZED DISCRIMINATION

• There are more than 50 laws that discriminate against Palestinian citizens of Israel. directly or indirectly, based solely on their ethnicity, rendering them second or third class citizens in their own homeland.
• 93% of the land in Israel is owned either by the state or by quasi-governmental agencies, such as the Jewish National Fund, that discriminate against non-Jews. Palestinian citizens of Israel face significant legal obstacles in gaining access to this land for agriculture, residence, or commercial development.
• More than seventy Palestinian villages and communities in Israel, some of which pre-date the establishment of the state, are unrecognized by the government, receive no services, and are not even listed on official maps. Many other towns with a majority Palestinian population lack basic services and receive significantly less government funding than do majority-Jewish towns.
• Since Israel's founding in 1948, more than 600 Jewish municipalities have been established, while not a single new Arab town or community has been recognized by the state.
• Israeli government resources are disproportionately directed to Jews and not to Arabs, one factor in causing the Palestinians of Israel to suffer the lowest living standards in Israeli society by all socio-economic indicators.
• Government funding for Arab schools is far below that of Jewish schools. According to data published in 2004, the government provides three times as much funding to Jewish students than it does to Arab students.
• According to the 2009 US State Department International Religious Freedom Report, “Many of the national and municipal policies in Jerusalem were designed to limit or diminish the non-Jewish population of Jerusalem.”
• In the Spring of 2011, Jerusalem city councilman Yakir Segev stated: “We will not allow residents of the eastern [occupied Palestinian] part of the city to build as much as they need... At the end of the day, however politically incorrect it may be to say, we will also look at the demographic situation in Jerusalem to make sure that in another 20 years we don't wake up in an Arab city.”
• The Nationality and Entry into Israel Law prevents Palestinians from the occupied territories who are married to Palestinian citizens of Israel from gaining residency or citizenship status. The law forces thousands of Palestinian citizens of Israel to either leave Israel or live apart from their families.
• In October 2010, the Knesset approved a bill allowing smaller Israeli towns to reject residents who do not suit "the community's fundamental outlook", based on sex, religion, and socioeconomic status. Critics slammed the move as an attempt to allow Jewish towns to keep Arabs and other non-Jews out.
• The so-called "Nakba Bill" bans state funding for groups that commemorate the tragedy that befell Palestinians during Israel's creation in 1948, when approx. 750,000 Palestinian Arabs were ethnically cleansed to make way for a Jewish majority state.
• The British Mandate-era Land (Acquisition for Public Purposes) Ordinance law allows the Finance Minster to confiscate land for "public purposes.” The state has used this law extensively, in conjunction with other laws such as the Land Acquisition Law and the Absentees' Property Law, to confiscate Palestinian land in Israel. A new amendment, which was adopted in February 2010, confirms state ownership of land confiscated under this law, even where it has not been used to serve the original confiscation purpose. The amendment was designed to prevent Arab citizens from submitting lawsuits to reclaim confiscated land.
• Over the entirety of its 63-year existence, there has been a period of only about one year (1966-1967) that Israel did not rule over large numbers of Palestinians to whom it granted no political rights.
• Former Israeli prime ministers Ehud Barak and Ehud Olmert have both warned that a continuation of the occupation will lead to Israel becoming an "apartheid" state. Barak stated: "As long as in this territory west of the Jordan river there is only one political entity called Israel it is going to be either non-Jewish, or non-democratic… If this bloc of millions of Palestinians cannot vote, that will be an apartheid state."
• Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Nelson Mandela, heroes of the struggle against apartheid in South Africa, have both compared Israel's treatment of Palestinians to apartheid.
• Today, there is a virtual caste system within the territories that Israel controls between the Jordan River and Mediterranean Sea, with Israeli Jews at the top and Muslim and Christian Palestinians in the occupied territories at the bottom. In between are Palestinians with Israeli citizenship and Palestinian residents of occupied East Jerusalem.

INCREASING INTOLERANCE FOR DISSENT & DIVERSITY IN ISRAEL

• In September 2011 a survey found that a third of Israeli Jews don’t consider Arab citizens to be real Israelis.
• According to a February 2011 survey, 52% of Israeli Jews would be willing to limit press freedoms to protect the state's image, while 55% would accept limits on the right to oppose the government's "defense policy.”
• Also in September 2011, Dov Lior, the chief rabbi of settlements in Hebron and Kiryat Arba and head of the West Bank setter rabbis' council, told a conference that Arabs are “wolves,” “savages,” and “evil camel riders.”
• A poll done by the Israel Democracy Institute and released in January 2011 found that nearly half of Israeli Jews don't want to live next door to an Arab.
• In January 2011 the Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper reported that civics teachers around the country were complaining of rampant, virulent anti-Arab racism amongst their Jewish students. One teacher said, "When we have a discussion in class about equal rights, the class immediately gets out of control… The students attack us, the teachers, for being leftist and anti-Semitic, and say that all the Arab citizens who want to destroy Israel should be transferred." Another said: "We're not talking about a minority, or children from families that have extreme political views, but about normal children who are afflicted with ignorance… The political discourse in recent years has given them the legitimacy to be prejudiced."
• In November 2010 the chief rabbi of the town of Safed, Shmuel Eliyahu, issued a ruling forbidding Jews from renting property to Arabs. Eliyahu had previouslyadvocated hanging the children of terrorists.
• In December 2010, dozens of municipal chief rabbis on the government payroll signed a letter supporting Eliyahu and his decree prohibiting Jews from renting property to non-Jews. One of the signatories, Rabbi Yosef Scheinen, head of the Ashdod Yeshiva (religious school), stated, "Racism originated in the Torah… The land of Israel is designated for the people of Israel."
• In December 2010, the wives of 30 prominent rabbis signed an open letter calling on Jewish women not to date or work with Arabs. The letter stated: "For your sake, for the sake of future generations, and so you don't undergo horrible suffering, we turn to you with a request, a plea, a prayer. Don't date non-Jews, don't work at places that non-Jews frequent, and don't do national service with non-Jews.”
• According to a September 2010 poll, half of Israeli Jewish students don't want Arabs in their classrooms, while an earlier survey found about the same number oppose equal rights for Arabs.
• In September 2010, the spiritual leader of the Shas party (which sits in PM Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition government), Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, declared that non-Jews were created to “serve” Jews, stating that: "Goyim [non-Jews] were born only to serve us.

• In August 2010, Rabbi Yitzhak Shapira, head of a state-funded religious school in the West Bank settlement of Yitzhar, published a book that condoned the murder of non-Jewish children on the grounds that they may grow up to pose a threat to the state, writing that non-Jews are "uncompassionate by nature" and attacks against them "curb their evil inclination.” Several other prominent rabbis subsequently endorsed the book.

I agree with you that America should not fight Iran for Israel's sake.

I don't see how any non-moron American could disagree.

Americans are deprived of the truth about Israel.

Discrimination Against Palestinian Citizens of Israel IMEU

INSTITUTIONALIZED DISCRIMINATION

• There are more than 50 laws that discriminate against Palestinian citizens of Israel. directly or indirectly, based solely on their ethnicity, rendering them second or third class citizens in their own homeland.
• 93% of the land in Israel is owned either by the state or by quasi-governmental agencies, such as the Jewish National Fund, that discriminate against non-Jews. Palestinian citizens of Israel face significant legal obstacles in gaining access to this land for agriculture, residence, or commercial development.
• More than seventy Palestinian villages and communities in Israel, some of which pre-date the establishment of the state, are unrecognized by the government, receive no services, and are not even listed on official maps. Many other towns with a majority Palestinian population lack basic services and receive significantly less government funding than do majority-Jewish towns.
• Since Israel's founding in 1948, more than 600 Jewish municipalities have been established, while not a single new Arab town or community has been recognized by the state.
• Israeli government resources are disproportionately directed to Jews and not to Arabs, one factor in causing the Palestinians of Israel to suffer the lowest living standards in Israeli society by all socio-economic indicators.
• Government funding for Arab schools is far below that of Jewish schools. According to data published in 2004, the government provides three times as much funding to Jewish students than it does to Arab students.
• According to the 2009 US State Department International Religious Freedom Report, “Many of the national and municipal policies in Jerusalem were designed to limit or diminish the non-Jewish population of Jerusalem.”
• In the Spring of 2011, Jerusalem city councilman Yakir Segev stated: “We will not allow residents of the eastern [occupied Palestinian] part of the city to build as much as they need... At the end of the day, however politically incorrect it may be to say, we will also look at the demographic situation in Jerusalem to make sure that in another 20 years we don't wake up in an Arab city.”
• The Nationality and Entry into Israel Law prevents Palestinians from the occupied territories who are married to Palestinian citizens of Israel from gaining residency or citizenship status. The law forces thousands of Palestinian citizens of Israel to either leave Israel or live apart from their families.
• In October 2010, the Knesset approved a bill allowing smaller Israeli towns to reject residents who do not suit "the community's fundamental outlook", based on sex, religion, and socioeconomic status. Critics slammed the move as an attempt to allow Jewish towns to keep Arabs and other non-Jews out.
• The so-called "Nakba Bill" bans state funding for groups that commemorate the tragedy that befell Palestinians during Israel's creation in 1948, when approx. 750,000 Palestinian Arabs were ethnically cleansed to make way for a Jewish majority state.
• The British Mandate-era Land (Acquisition for Public Purposes) Ordinance law allows the Finance Minster to confiscate land for "public purposes.” The state has used this law extensively, in conjunction with other laws such as the Land Acquisition Law and the Absentees' Property Law, to confiscate Palestinian land in Israel. A new amendment, which was adopted in February 2010, confirms state ownership of land confiscated under this law, even where it has not been used to serve the original confiscation purpose. The amendment was designed to prevent Arab citizens from submitting lawsuits to reclaim confiscated land.
• Over the entirety of its 63-year existence, there has been a period of only about one year (1966-1967) that Israel did not rule over large numbers of Palestinians to whom it granted no political rights.
• Former Israeli prime ministers Ehud Barak and Ehud Olmert have both warned that a continuation of the occupation will lead to Israel becoming an "apartheid" state. Barak stated: "As long as in this territory west of the Jordan river there is only one political entity called Israel it is going to be either non-Jewish, or non-democratic… If this bloc of millions of Palestinians cannot vote, that will be an apartheid state."
• Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Nelson Mandela, heroes of the struggle against apartheid in South Africa, have both compared Israel's treatment of Palestinians to apartheid.
• Today, there is a virtual caste system within the territories that Israel controls between the Jordan River and Mediterranean Sea, with Israeli Jews at the top and Muslim and Christian Palestinians in the occupied territories at the bottom. In between are Palestinians with Israeli citizenship and Palestinian residents of occupied East Jerusalem.

INCREASING INTOLERANCE FOR DISSENT & DIVERSITY IN ISRAEL

• In September 2011 a survey found that a third of Israeli Jews don’t consider Arab citizens to be real Israelis.
• According to a February 2011 survey, 52% of Israeli Jews would be willing to limit press freedoms to protect the state's image, while 55% would accept limits on the right to oppose the government's "defense policy.”
• Also in September 2011, Dov Lior, the chief rabbi of settlements in Hebron and Kiryat Arba and head of the West Bank setter rabbis' council, told a conference that Arabs are “wolves,” “savages,” and “evil camel riders.”
• A poll done by the Israel Democracy Institute and released in January 2011 found that nearly half of Israeli Jews don't want to live next door to an Arab.
• In January 2011 the Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper reported that civics teachers around the country were complaining of rampant, virulent anti-Arab racism amongst their Jewish students. One teacher said, "When we have a discussion in class about equal rights, the class immediately gets out of control… The students attack us, the teachers, for being leftist and anti-Semitic, and say that all the Arab citizens who want to destroy Israel should be transferred." Another said: "We're not talking about a minority, or children from families that have extreme political views, but about normal children who are afflicted with ignorance… The political discourse in recent years has given them the legitimacy to be prejudiced."
• In November 2010 the chief rabbi of the town of Safed, Shmuel Eliyahu, issued a ruling forbidding Jews from renting property to Arabs. Eliyahu had previouslyadvocated hanging the children of terrorists.
• In December 2010, dozens of municipal chief rabbis on the government payroll signed a letter supporting Eliyahu and his decree prohibiting Jews from renting property to non-Jews. One of the signatories, Rabbi Yosef Scheinen, head of the Ashdod Yeshiva (religious school), stated, "Racism originated in the Torah… The land of Israel is designated for the people of Israel."
• In December 2010, the wives of 30 prominent rabbis signed an open letter calling on Jewish women not to date or work with Arabs. The letter stated: "For your sake, for the sake of future generations, and so you don't undergo horrible suffering, we turn to you with a request, a plea, a prayer. Don't date non-Jews, don't work at places that non-Jews frequent, and don't do national service with non-Jews.”
• According to a September 2010 poll, half of Israeli Jewish students don't want Arabs in their classrooms, while an earlier survey found about the same number oppose equal rights for Arabs.
• In September 2010, the spiritual leader of the Shas party (which sits in PM Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition government), Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, declared that non-Jews were created to “serve” Jews, stating that: "Goyim [non-Jews] were born only to serve us. Without that, they have no place in the world - only to serve the People of Israel... Why are gentiles needed? They will work, they will plow, they will reap. We will sit like an effendi and eat.

Let's ask Daniyel and rylah, who actually live in Israel, if this is true. In the past, these posters have complained that Arabs in Israel get alot of affirmative action rights and privileges that they don't get. I know that Arab doctors and nurses treated my grandmother in Haifa, and I saw alot of Arab students at Hebrew University.
It's important, though, to differentiate between Arabs living in Israel proper, and those living in the Palestinian territories.

Arab lobby in the United States - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

You didn't quote the rest of the article because you want to cover up the truth.

Check this out:

Bard, author of 2010 book The Arab Lobby and a former editor of the "Near East Report", a weekly newsletter published by the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, writes that "from the beginning, the Arab lobby has faced not only a disadvantage in electoral politics but also in organization." Academics Ali A. Mazrui and Nabeel A. Khoury have also written about the virtual non-existence of an Arab lobby in America.

 

[CMike]

The difference is that the Pro-Israel lobbyists have grassroots support, the arab lobbyists don't have grassroots support. t

They just throw their billions of dollars around and buy off politicians.

The Arab Lobby in America and Influence over the U.S. - The Daily Beast

Oh Alan Dershowitz, there's a neutral source we can take seriously. lol Dershowitz loves Israel almost as much as he hates the USA. Dershowitz is so busy raping little girls, I'm surprised he found time to write lying justifications for Israeli atrocities.

Note to conservatives: Dershowitz favors Obama

the Saudi lobby has beaten the pro-Israel lobby over and over again in head-to-head conflicts, such as the sale of sophisticated weapons

The American people gain when we sell weapons to the Saudis. The Israelis get billions in weapons for free courtesy of the U.S. taxpayer. See the difference?

"The Saudis have taken a different tact from the Israeli lobby, focusing a top-down rather than bottom-up approach to lobbying.

The Israeli lobby never buys politicians?!

The methodology employed by the Arab lobby is thus totally inconsistent with democratic governance, because it does not reflect the will of the people but rather the corruption of the elite, while the Israeli lobby seems to operate within the parameters of democratic processes.

Fortune Magazine named AIPAC the second-most-powerful group in Washington! They spend millions subverting the democratic process and bribing politicians. Fortunately for America AIPAC's influence may be waning. They are having trouble pushing the U.S. into fighting another war for Israel - this time with Iran.

Poll Right-Wing Pro-Israel Lobbying Group AIPAC Losing Influence - The ITT List

Quote: Forty percent of respondents expressing an opinion felt that AIPAC's influence decreases the chance for a resolution in the Israel/Palestinian conflict, only 27 percent felt that AIPAC increases the chance of a resolution. Seventy-four percent of the respondents who expressed an opinion said they had seen members of Congress vote contrary to the U.S. national interest at least once as a result of AIPAC's influence.

And don't forget the media. Pro-Israel media bosses lie to the American people nonstop, covering up Israeli brutality.

Shows how much you know then doesn't it as the loans Israel gets have to be spent in America to keep defence workers in a job. Now you can tell those peoples families why you are throwing them out of their homes and destroying their families when the loans to Israel stop

 

[Phoenall]

In recent decades, probably the 1970's onward, the purpose of the aid has further a strong bilateral arrangement which reflects are shared values in government and culture;

I deeply resent anyone saying the U.S. and Israel share values. Israel is an apartheid state that discriminates against Palestinians and murders the innocent.

countries hold in the matter of strategic goals in the Middle East

Israel is a liability.

overall U.S. public support for Israel remains strong.

If true only because of the lies of the media bosses.

the International Threat they have posed since the 1972 Munich Olympic Games

The Muslim countries do not possess much in the way of military power. Israel is barely threatened, the U.S. not at all.

Then produce the link that says this officially.

It only takes on plane and the seat of power in the US could be destroyed
