    AIPAC doesn’t represent the interest of the citizens. But it does represent the interest of the numerous corporations and organizations in the US!
    The military industry complex, fossil fuel industry, churches, corporate leaders want a strong AIPAC! They all benefit with more military spending, high oil prices and evangelical support etc etc

    • @humanforfreedom9583
      @humanforfreedom9583 Před 4 lety +3

      It only represents those churches that have sold out and subscribed to christian Zionism, apart from that theyve done everything they can to destroy traditional christian or catholic values. George soros is a good example of that with all the radical groups he funds who are working for the 1% that they think they are fighting.

    Question : Why should America give/spend billions and go to war for Israel's sake ?
    The following reasoning is forwarded :
    1. We share common values. ..... Which is a very vague statement.
    2. It is the only democracy in the area......... But we still support Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
    Answer : American legislators have been purchased by Israel using the same money that the US gave it.
    AIPAC is the conduit.

    Here in Europe, the word "lobby" has a bad connotation, because... well, it's cartel behavior, it's bribing, it's dirty... hands down.
    The problem with these Americans in this panel, they are so accustomed with this behavior, this culture... they say: in order for us to win against that cartel, we need to build a bigger cartel.
    It's absurd, surreal.
    You guys need to do your homework, raid the bastards, seize their accets... I mean, you do it with the Russians and others, why not with the Jews?

  • @danielmoshejohnson
    @danielmoshejohnson Před 6 lety +1

    I want to first start off by saying thank you for the opportunity to offer a perspective from my angle of this conflict. Each person has an important voice in the world, if it’s positive and adds to peace not war.
    Although, it is written” we fight not against flesh and blood, but against powers and principalities”, the Kabballa calls it the opponent.
    What ever it is, it has many faces, flags, doctrines, ideologies and principles, that all indicate, stagnation!
    Why stagnation in human relations, for earth hovers in full circular space time suspension, which should require all intention,, for this is prevention, from the psychological mental lynching, a reason for the body detention.
    Religious dogma, representatives of free speech, sovereign free will, true purpose documented scientifically in democratic zones and international law must be even and just for all who live ethically.
    This should be the peace plan for any region of this temporal construct we call Earth. We did not build this planet, this makes everything and everyone in potential debt, and that debt payment must resemble purpose, planetary positioning and the process of sharing as one.
    All planet operations should reflect a world from a leaser perspective, where the owners world is treated with respect by the human occupancy, whose lease is temporary.
    Now, we don’t reside in such a world, as of yet, but we do live in a world with great potential. We can nearly reach the next planet, yet we can’t fully make peace among created nation states.
    Peace in the Middle East can only be maintained if the rights of the existence of the state of Israel, already established over 60 years plus, is accepted and respected. One would think that a governing body would help maintain law and member opinions, round table negotiations where all nations who have input can speak and religious opinions should never override the right to exist.
    Since we occupy a planet measured in war capability, economical obtainment, currency and consensus popultation growth and development, war victory in mandating terrortiry must have rules, and where Israel is concerned, rules have been applied, wars have been secured and won, but not respected.
    So the answer is, where lies the biased world governing body or universal planetary order, that can make rulings fairly based upon system rules agreed upon by all participants whose choose to be a member of a nation where each participant can have the opportunity to excel if potential lies in that individual.
    Israel, like any other nation, was recreated based upon, first, the rights of the Allied Powers to so so, after the Ottomans operate a tyrannical empire for 400 years, an empire where a non globally agreed upon ideology was the judge and jury.
    During that empire many people suffered and wete murdered, and there was no one in the region challenging their abusive rulership and ownership of the people. Now today, we have a legitimate Israel, which conducts it’s nation as a member of a plan called democracy, where no Sultan, or Ottoman court or Iman controls your life.
    This thing called democracy, has attracted millions of Muslims to democratic zones, they understand that Islamic States are nor essential in a world where free will is nor something that should take order from a system controller, if you will….
    With an Allied power team that consisted of top world brokers who made an agreement, and recreated nations, then why of all the nation’s recreated and zoned, the tiny Jewish state is not accepted.
    Imagine if the Allied Forces were men who were familiar with the original map of Israel, the border would stem up into modern day Iraq.
    The answer to peace is simple, to clear out, relocate and evacuate all non Jews from the area ordered to the Jewish homeland. And then the neighboring Arab states, whom were recreated on Jewish land apprehended by previous wars, would be told that they should be grateful.
    History is important, but we need a governing body that operates in merit and war rule rules. …..
    Daniel Moshe Johnson

      First Israel was recreated based upon the bombings and atrocities committed by the Zionist terrorists. Secondly it was formed as the last vestige of the former colonial powers imperialism. Nice try though.
