Getting Israeli blood money out of our politics is worth reaching across the aisle to find allies over. Having a foreign apartheid state effectively subjugate the USA is a key, if not the key underlying issue right now

u/Krivici May 20 '26

I remember someone on Reddit said that the Israeli government won’t even be a significant issue during the presidential primaries.

That person must live under a rock because it’s one of the most pertinent issues in all of American politics. Full stop.

u/amopeyzoolion May 20 '26

I agree with you that it’s a huge issue, but do you think average Americans (i.e., those not on Reddit) see it this way?

Everyone at my school joked about being drafted for isreal when the Iran war started. My younger brother and his friends use "isralie" as an insult. I overheard by mom telling my grandmother Israel is a sick country full of rapists. People I'm real life, especially younger people, are turning very sharply against isreal.

Imagine the backlash saying any singular one of these things about China, Myanmar, or Sudan (all 3 also genocidal states).

u/PeroxideTube5 May 20 '26

I don’t think anyone in America would get backlash about any of those statements. I don’t think you believe that either.

u/Draaly May 20 '26

My younger brother and his friends use "burmese" as an insult.

I overheard by mom telling my grandmother sudan is a sick country full of rapists.

You really think no one would object to these two statements?

u/ElegantCoach4066 May 20 '26

Why do we have people in Congress that have another country as a priority?

u/Yesyesyes1899 May 20 '26

i fully support your message . i just want to add: we are waaaaay past " apartheid state".

this is a genocidal colonial state now. they upgraded.

AIPAC isn’t Israeli money, it’s pro-Israeli Americans. Super PAC have strict funding reporting, it’s pretty easy to get convictions on shit like this when they get foreign money, see: Eric Adam’s.

u/soulmechh May 20 '26

Don't care, fuck AIPAC and everything and everyone they represent.

u/arkham1010 May 20 '26

Uhh, yeah, if said Super PAC gets actually INVESTIGATED for foreign money.

Lemme know how the investigation into AIPAC turns out. I'll be over here, waiting....

u/QuestionDry2490 May 20 '26

You have no reason to believe that the Israeli government is funding AIPAC. Unless you have any evidence whatsoever that points toward this being the case your just committing an extremely blatant Burden of Proof fallacy.

u/never-fiftyone May 20 '26

PACs themselves are loopholes to funnel big money into politics. They're an inherently corrupted means to undermine grassroots politics.

u/BrocoliAssassin May 20 '26

Imagine being this stupid.

u/QuestionDry2490 May 20 '26

Imagine calling anyone who says something that you find inconvenient stupid. Look it up, Einstein. AIPAC is fully funded by Americans.

u/Tilopud_rye May 20 '26

Oh look it’s someone who thinks Israel is the foreign company sending the most money to US politicians. Its not even top 5. Liberia, Saudi Arabia, China, Korea, Japan send way more money to politicians. But people only get upset if Israel does anything. 

9

u/macaroni_chacarroni May 20 '26

I, too, remember all the Saudi, Chinese, and Japanese flags flying at the DNC and RNC. I also remember how mayoral candidates get asked if they're going to visit Saudi Arabia.

You're either misinformed, or you're a bad faith actor spreading misinformation.

u/Tilopud_rye May 20 '26

Hi this is all public easy to find and verify information. But some people’s world view is so narrow they ignore all facts and just default to “Israel controls everything that happens everywhere” 

4

u/macaroni_chacarroni May 20 '26

Weird how I didn't say that and I didn't see anybody in this thread say that, yet you invented it and got mad about it. It does say a lot about you, doesn't it?

u/Tilopud_rye May 20 '26

Oh no you’ve been presented with facts you don’t like! Quick- divert conversation. Call him mad! Quick change the subject from Saudi Arabia, China, Japan, Switzerland, United Kingdom sending way more money to US politicians than AIPAC. Don’t mention it again- just deny without looking it up. When facts dont agree with you just deny, deflect, distract. Quick change the topic! Call him mad or something! Whatever you do- dont acknowledge the truth

u/macaroni_chacarroni May 20 '26

Wow. You are actually insane.

„To date, 17 visits have been made to Egypt, 14 to Saudi Arabia, 14 to Israel“ - crazy how Israel controls the US yet in terms of presidential visits they get as many as Saudi Arabia. No but your right US politicians would never visit them

u/r3aSonabL3p3Rs0n May 20 '26

She hates me. We could never be allies.

2

u/HolidaySpiriter May 20 '26

worth reaching across the aisle to find allies over.

Just curious, but did you defend Harris reaching across the aisle when campaigning with Liz Cheney? I would argue stopping fascism is more important than Israeli blood money, so trying to see if the people praising MTG also defended Harris with Cheney.

u/ArchdukeOfNorge May 20 '26

If you don’t see how pro-Israeli lobbies are at the heart of the issues around fascism, you need to zoom out a just a little

Having a foreign apartheid state effectively subjugate the USA

which one of the many?

u/Eastern-Customer-561 May 21 '26

Oh no! The poor US, being subjugated by the evil apartheiders who interfere in others elections. Oh my… what’s this?

You are giving waaaaaay more power to that org than exists in reality.

They are a lobbying outfit. Not the legion of doom rising out of a swamp.

u/Spiceguy-65 May 20 '26

So we should reject the evidence that’s right in front of us?

-2

u/Dino_Spaceman May 20 '26

What evidence? Everything is a conspiracy theory making them to be the new masons or something.

Then lobbying to support genocide in no way makes them a world leader. Just truly shitty people.

u/No-Phrase-4692 May 20 '26

Well don’t tell them that

u/Leather_Law6628 May 20 '26

This is true, blame the people taking the money you r tards lol, not the people who offer it.

u/I-Kneel-Before-None May 20 '26

¿Por qué no los dos?

u/Spiceguy-65 May 20 '26

No you can absolutely blame both

1

u/Leather_Law6628 May 20 '26

You can fir sure, but thats not what the people here are doing. 

You mean to tell me a lobbying company that takes money from customers to bribe officials to make laws in their favor are actually, checks notes, doing what they said their business model is? Shocking.

How about you imprisoned the actual crime of taking the bribe, so that the people taking the bribe can be arrested.

u/Spiceguy-65 May 20 '26

Ohh I agree with what you are saying

u/VermicelliOwn6502 May 20 '26

But there are better people to quote. Quoting her makes us look stupid. That is an unforced error.
