In an interview with Politico, Pennsylvania Governor and presidential hopeful Josh Shapiro suggested that some AIPAC criticism is antisemitic.
AIPAC says that being pro-Israel is good politics. But if that is true, why do they have to spend so much money on elections?
AIPAC helped oust Thomas Massie in Kentucky, but Chris Rabb’s win in Philadelphia dealt a major blow to pro-Israel groups and the Democratic Party establishment.
Keir Starmer is facing a political crisis, in part because of his support for Israel, as a rising star in the party calls for sanctions against the “pariah” state. Gaza has altered politics forever, and the shock waves are now reaching the UK.
Chris Rabb’s consistency on Palestine has resonated with voters in the country’s bluest district, who have felt betrayed by the Democrats’ approach to Israel and foreign policy.
In a historic vote, 75% of Senate Democrats backed an effort to block weapons to Israel. The resolutions failed, but the vote was the latest sign of Democrats’ growing consensus against aid to Israel, as support for the country hits an all-time low.
A revolution is underway within the Jewish community as youth abandon Zionism following the Gaza genocide. While the community scrambles to respond, the Israel lobby is being fractured in the process.
Israel is emerging as a central theme in the upcoming midterms, with one of the clearest examples being Illinois’s 9th district Democratic primary.
No matter how desperately our politicians try to convince us otherwise, Israel isn’t good for us. The new U.S.-Israeli war on Iran, which Americans overwhelmingly do not want, is the latest proof of that. It’s time for us to end the relationship.
