Journal Collapsing Empire's Journal: Jewish Liberals to Launch A Counterpoint to AIPAC
Your politicians and their foreign policy are being sold to alien interests. Am I the only one who remembers what Thomas Jefferson said about entangling alliances?
Some of the country's most prominent Jewish liberals are forming a political action committee and lobbying group aimed at dislodging what they consider the excessive hold of neoconservatives and evangelical Christians on U.S. policy toward Israel.
The group is planning to channel political contributions to favored candidates in perhaps a half-dozen campaigns this fall, the first time an organization focused on Israel has tried to play such a direct role in the political process, according to its organizers.
Again I ask, how would it be viewed if say, the French (or a more obvious example: the Chinese), were a little more politically active and tried to bribe congressmen for more aid to France? Of course it wouldn't go over very well. It would be seen for what it was - bribery of politicians for the sole benefit of an ethnic minority. Yet with Jews and Israel, there is a double standard.
