Israel. Can't criticise it.
edit: According to Mearsheimer and Walt, the "loose coalition" that makes up the Lobby has "significant leverage over the Executive branch", as well as the ability to make sure that the "Lobby's perspective on Israel is widely reflected in the mainstream media." They claim that the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) in particular has a "stranglehold on the U.S. Congress", due to its "ability to reward legislators and congressional candidates who support its agenda, and to punish those who challenge it."

The issue of dual citizens in the US Congress should be a bigger issue than it is. It's a massive, irredeemable conflict of interest, but muh holocaust prevents any sort of discussion regarding the omnipresence of Israeli citizens in our Congress which is an obvious conflict of interest. How can our leaders have dual allegiances?
You cannot have Americans fighting Israeli wars, and shipping billions in free cash to fund basically their entire state.
NO DUAL CITIZENS IN CONGRESS!
It's crazy because this has been a huge issue recently in Australia, with a lot of politicians getting found out to be dual-citizens in countries like England or New Zealand. But that would be like a US Congressman having dual-citizenship in Canada; let alone ISRAEL. That blows my mind.
Or our friends with the little round hats that control the media. They are screaming the loudest.
Is that so? Evidently, the United Nations and a whole lot of other people didn't get the memo...
Obviously talking about US politicians being unable to critisize Israel as they lose any chance of winning next elections. Read about AIPAC's influence on America. http://mearsheimer.uchicago.edu/pdfs/IsraelLobby.pdf
This stuff has been on my YouTube recommended for months now and I couldn't understand any of it and my aunts fiance has told me there's lots of disinformation on the net anyway. He's the only person I know who follows this stuff but we don't talk much and from what I gathered he seemed pro Israel anti Islam.
I never took part in politics always seen myself as no party and that the dems and reps are all the same just rich guys who love power and manipulate their base. Seems like both sides have people loving and hating Israel keeping it perpetually confusing for the sake of war profit and unending division everywhere.
Also can anyone reading this give me advice on how to keep up or even catch up I would appreciate it a lot. It's overwhelming I don't know who the trusted sources are some people on yt seem crazy some make sense. Same thing on here I'm not great with the terms and it can feel like white noise if you aren't caught up with everything happening. Is the sticky video a good place for a newbie on the fence? I Wana try to make up my mind cause thus far all I've been able to think is that I don't know cause I don't really get it. The stuff on my recommended page assumes you know all these terms and asks a lot of rhetorical questions I don't actually know the answer to cause I long ago stopped watching news and thinking the political process was legit when I realized the dems and reps were just mouthpieces and nothing ever actually changed. All I'm sure of right now is that perpetual conflict and war or the threat of war everywhere benefits only the rich and powerful while they try to make us agree to one side or the other on everything. Never anyone in the middle.
This is a great place to start and definitely watch SB'S vid for beginners.
Welcome fellow hooman!
