AIPAC controlling everything...
(lemmy.world)
Context:
Rep. Jamaal Bowman loses New York primary to pro-Israel George Latimer, most expensive primary race ever
Not that I disagree but can someone explain how one congressperson losing takes the percentage control from 85-90% to 98%…?
It's a chilling effect on anyone who might criticize Israel.
The same thing Trump does to disloyal Republicans. "Won't toe the line? We'll primary you."
So now when deciding on whether genocide is bad, the cowards in congress have a foreign controlled organization breathing down their necks.
Go read the AIPAC wikipedia. Between actively spying for the Israeli Government (Lawrence Anthony Franklin, Air Force Colonel, passed classified info to two AIPAC officials and an offical of the Israeli government. He got 13 years. Charges were dropped against AIPAC), and financially supporting 37 Republicans that voted against certifying the 2020 election, AIPAC is a right-wing organization designed to turn the US political establishment against the beliefs of the majority of US Jews in favor of a Trump/Netanyahu flavor of crony government.
Oh so it’s not meant to be quantitative but instead is meant as “most” to “almost everyone.” Makes sense, I thought he was doing the math and I was very confused lol
