AIPAC's Latest 'pro-Israel' Political Stunt Endangers America
Why is AIPAC, which condemned Trump's incitement of violence on Jan 6th and the assault on America's democratic values, endorsing 'pro-Israel' candidates who align with insurrectionists and white supremacists?

In early March, the newly-created American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) political action committee (PAC) announced political endorsements, the first time it had explicitly backed candidates in its 70-year history.
Astonishingly, these endorsements include 37 Republicans who refused to certify the 2020 presidential election and, among them, two members of Congress who refused to testify before the January 6th Committee about their role in the Capitol insurrection.
AIPAC PAC’s endorsements are profoundly troubling because they suggest that, at times, one must compromise support of America’s democracy to support Israel. This is a patently false dichotomy rejected by the overwhelming majority of American Jews.

AIPAC has been punching above its weight for years in influencing Congress-persons and Senators by fair means or foul. Most US politicians declare love for Israel while actually fearing the Israel lobby.
Well, they've succeeded in weakening the Constitution and STILL get groveling support from brain-scrubbed Americans. Now that they've come out- how many blind Americans are there ?
