Why Conservatives Should Give AIPAC the Pink Slip by Daniel Horowitz.
The Washington political scene is a landscape riddled with power hungry politicians who place their self-interests over the public principles they espouse. That is why there are so many elected officials, organizations, and pieces of legislation that are often portrayed to the public as something completely antithetical to what they are in reality. Nowhere is this dichotomy between public perception and reality as gravely consequential as it is with AIPAC.
By Janet Levy
AIPAC is an organization that is working COUNTER to its stated mission to support Israel. Just look at the subterfuge they pulled off on the latest bill on nuclear Iran! (See above).
It is wrongly assumed that AIPAC is a pro-Israel organization that is deeply disturbed by the threats from a soon-to-be nuclear Iran and wants to protect Israel’s security.
At its highest levels, AIPAC is a group of active, Left-leaning Democrats committed to SHIELDING Obama and the Democrats in their appeasement of Iran and treatment of Israel. They are MORE concerned with their political connections than PROTECTING Israel.
Recently, AIPAC used its clout to tout the damning-for-Israel Corker-Cardin bill, worked to get congressional buy-ins and advocated AGAINST true pro-Israel conservatives.
AIPAC fought AGAINST those in Congress who tried to add amendments REQUIRING Iran to RECOGNIZE Israel as a Jewish state as a PREREQUISITE to removing sanctions!
In a contingent of “Jewish” leaders that included former presidents of AIPAC (now with J Street) and others who met with Obama, one participant said, “If you decide to go against Israel at the U.N., let us know first and we’ll do the legwork for you in the {Jewish} community…so you’re not going to come in cold.
AIPAC has even FOUGHT conservatives on CUTTING funds for the Arab-Palestines.

The purpose of AIPAC is AIPAC and collecting the funds to accomplish.

I realized years ago that AIPAC is a fraud. This fact became even more clear as I saw AIPAC, incredibly, work on behalf of our current anti-Semitic anti-Israel President. It is incredible that high-ups in AIPAC have worked with the openly anti-Israel J-street, but it is consistent with AIPAC being run by “palace Jews” and gullible fools.
I made this precise point in an essay published last Thursday in The American Thinker.
I quoted an article from the JTA regarding the Gaza withdrawal of a decade ago in which it was noted that the precedent is that AIPAC doesn’t oppose official Israeli policy.
That is why I concluded AIPAC has declared itself to be married to the Dems as OPPOSED to its responsibility not to oppose BB.
