I am speaking of - systematic, well funded, well organized manipulation and control -- and frankly hat tip to Israel for their influence in America.

For years, maybe decades, I have been observing how most candidates for POTUS make their pilgrimage to AIPAC to pledge fealty to Israel. Apparently, AIPAC money is starting to become toxic.

Rep. Seth Moulton (D-Mass.) said Thursday he will not accept further donations from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) and will return donations he has already received from the group.

“I support Israel’s right to exist, but I’ve also never been afraid to disagree openly with AIPAC when I believe they’re wrong,” Moulton said in a statement he posted to the social platform X.

Calling people "antisemitic", to shut them down, does require the person to say something critical of Israel. Now, I see the regime is going back to #43's tactic of proclaiming that all critics "hate America". Much more versatile than "antisemitic", or Hillary's favorite, variations on "they hate women".

Cenk insists the invasion of Iraq was at Israel's behest. I still think it was about controlling Iraq's oil. US intervention in Syria, however, I agree, it was all about helping unhorse the Assad family, that had been an irritant to Israel for decades.
