What is AIPAC and what does it do? | Al Jazeera Newsfeed
Despite recent signs of strain over the Gaza war, the US remains a firm ally of Israel and one of the biggest reasons for that is AIPAC - the biggest pro-Israel lobby group in US politics. Here’s a quick rundown of who they are.

@@aboucard93 Western Democracies are similar to Dictatorships. They control where your money is spent and the policies that affect your life. They only allow you to insult them on social media and protests. But now they’re banning your TkTok and censoring your other social media. They fire you from your job , raid your home and unleash their mainstream media to smear you.

@@MeikaiXlobbying in itself is not bad. It originated from the practice of standing and walking in the LOBBY of courthouses and parliament to present your need to the rulers and representatives as they're walking in and out, and try to convince them. What we are doing to push the humanitarian cause is also then lobbying. The problem is the bribery, monetary or otherwise.

how did Palestinian conquer the land? Israel conquered the land from the Canaanite’s. The land is Israeli ancestral land, Israeli truly have the right of return. It’s clear that the British and Americas recognize and wanted to restore the land back to Israel. In 1948 Israel achieved its independence and in 1967 Usrael defeated the Syrian, Jordanian and Egyptian collective armies regain its ancestral land. Therefore, the West Bank borders is irrelevant and the Romans given name PALESTINE is obsolete. Romans do not rule any more 😂 Get over it. You are an Israeli citizen. Any jihadist must be deported to countries of origin Syria Jordan or Egypt. The end.

As an American mama THANK YOU!!!! I was wondering how they are so steadfast and strong in their aiding and support of genocide when most Americans are like me, desperately needing us to call for an immediate cease fire and stop aiding this genocide with our money, chemicals, and weapons. Blood is on my hands and I would do anything to stop it. My government doesn't care about Americans either. My family and I almost died from contamination from a natural gas facility. High levels of gases, hundreds of fracking chemicals, we lost everything and our health and my government has only lied and protected the corporations not the people. My government is OUT OF CONTROL and I'm working every day to change it so the world may be safer someday.

@@MENADEL361 you think? Everyone I know is for an immediate cease fire but I don't know many Republicans. I went to a town hall with my senator, Ron Wyden. We all asked repeatedly when will we call for an immediate cease fire and stop funding and sending our weapons all he could respond to was oct 7th. Even with repeated questions about the Palestinian people he didn't mention them once. At the end we all chanted no ceasefire no vote. His attitude was a stark difference compare to the American people in the croud. I live in a pretty progressive area though. You're probably right. So much is wrong with my country.

Trust me, they don't care in the least what we the people want. More of us than not, want a permanent cease fire and for Palestinians to be free to control their own destiny. We want to be able to control our own destiny, they rule us without representing us or our wishes at all. It's only when they think it will affect their power, that they may concede to our wishes by throwing us a few crumbs, in a way that benefits them too. But none of us is free if all of us are not free. 🇮🇱 may rule our political class, but not the good people who live here. Viva La Resistance ✊️🇵🇸 Free Palestine❤

I don't think spending money on ads or politicians is the most important. Most important is influencing public opinion and that works by influence in the media. I think the influence of 'AIPAC' in the media is what really counts.
@mayibuye2908
2 ай бұрын
Ads are part of the propaganda which influences the public, and the politicians are very important. It is the politicians who make the laws, create foreign policy, decide whether America should send military aid to Israel or not, veto UN resolutions or not, vote for a ceasefire or not, and so on and so forth.
Many European countries provide politicians with funds from the budget (taxes) so they don't have to be bought by lobby groups or corporations. The federal government should outlaw lobby groups and fund politicians directly so they actually work for the people as intended.
