@timnitGebru AIPAC is primarily a product of evangelical american christian funding? Why would it be a foreign agent?
@thufie because it’s working on behalf of the interests of a foreign country’s government. Why would you have to register yourself under FARA as such if you do that for China or Russia, but not Israel?
re: uspol, well here's what I think about it
@timnitGebru Also I would like to add that I do not like any possible implications that Israel is directly calling the shots here with American lobbyists. It's the other way around and a message to the relevant powerful parties in the Knesset (like Likud), American interests setting the tune for them to dance. Convenient kinds of Israelis (like very racist IDF chuds) get brought in as showpieces for what are fundamentally American (nation-state) interests. Whether they be financial or apocalyptic.
