This graphic provides clarity as to why Joe Biden and other senior leaders in the U.S. government are consistently pro-Israel: Of course, the power of AIPAC and similar interest groups isn’t limited to the money they give in campaign “donations.” If you cross them, they will use their power to denounce you as anti-Semitic and anti-Israel while supporting more tractable candidates against you. You have to hand it to AIPAC and Israel. They basically control much of the U.S. government and for a relatively cheap price. Of course, I’m not suggesting money and intimidation are the only reasons these men support Israel, but they are compelling ones. The Palestinians and indeed the Arab and Muslim world simply have no counter to AIPAC and Israel. Unless you count oil and the threat of turning the taps off. Still, the power of the Israeli lobby in America is staggering. Many members of Congress seem more eager and willing to protect Israel at any cost than America itself. Senator Fetterman of Pennsylvania literally draped himself in an Israeli flag to show his support of that country. To be an ally of a country, you don’t have to be a slavering puppet. Or a groveling puppy. What is wrong with these people?
