Ruth, the context is the bill giving the executive branch the ability to designate any nonprofit or advocacy group as a terrorist organization. this bill was strongly supported by aipac because they wanted all pro palestinian groups or opinions banned. this law is on its surface completely unconstitutional yet 52 democrats (jewish or aipac recipients) voted for it. it is shameful.
yes i despise the lobbying efforts of all big business; it should not be allowed. we can all write ad nauseum about the corruption therein, especially when they actually write the laws and our "representatives' just rubber stamp them.
and no, I am not anti-semitic. one can be opposed to genocidal actions without being a bigot.
Why single out AIPAC’s lobbying efforts? Why not pharma, oil, or gun lobbies?
