AIPAC

According to some people the reason why the US continues to support Israel as much as we do is because of AIPAC. Considering the damage our support for Israel has done to our reputation and image in the Middle East its a wonder and a show of how powerful AIPAC is that we continue to hold the same policy towards Israel and the Middle East.

Also considering the fact that we've caught several Israeli spies in the US sending over confidential military information and technical information and yet our support and money continues to flow shows just how deeply entrenched AIPAC is. They've got spies in our country stealing our technology and yet we still call them allies (oh and not to mention at one point Israel was about to sell sensitive US military technologies that we gave to them as aid to the Chinese). Hilarious.

While I'm not anti-semitic I am however against our current policy in regards to Israel at the moment. We seem more contempt to just continually dump money into Israel, incur the wrath the Palestinians and Arabs worldwide than to actually cut our support to Israel to bring them to the bargaining table and actually try to create a stable and lasting environment in Israel/Palestine. And while I'm sure there are several forces at work here to makes things the way they are but the idea of a shadowy super powerful political body lobbying for these ideas is just too good to pass up as something I can just point to and blame.

How ya doing, buddy?
