In reply to the discussion: Hundreds of rabbis accuse Mamdani of fueling antisemitism over 'monsters' comment [View all]Intractable
(2,574 posts)19. Your supposed "truth" is irrelevant and is a feeble distraction from the main point.
AIPAC is not 100% successful. You said that already. You seem stuck on this point.
AIPAC lobbies for weapons and money for Israel. I am against it.
>> It rhymes with the oldest antisemitic trope there is: that Jews quietly run the world.
I do not accept your inference. I am against Israeli aggression, not Jewish people. Like Bibbi, you can try to blur the difference, but that's another strawman from you.
Like all other lobbies, AIPAC does its best to influence how the world is run.

So, for you, the problem is not the ideology of AIPAC. It's just that it's not 100% successful.

Oh, how is it not the case? I see no argument here. Just a vacuous statement.

You keep pointing at who is funding it when many people other than Jewish people fund it also.

Sometime, probably soon. The rabbis will learn the US ain't taking it so much anymore.

I am well aware of the expulsion of Palestinians as well as their leaving voluntarily during the 1948 war.

Mamdani accused AIPAC of pouring "millions of dark-money dollars" into efforts to turn the public against itself.

What fuels antisemitism is people like them conflating Jews and Israel/AIPAC
