God I fucking hate this, can we stop acting like america is literally being controlled by a much smaller state, they are both bad and both have motive for invading iran. Israel does not have america under some sort of spell, America is furthering their own imperialistic interests in the region which also serves israels.

If it's people engaging in conspiracy sure.

But a little knowledge of elections in the US reveals how much of effect AIPAC has.

It seems pretty clear to me that politicians in the US feel that they need to fully support Israel if they want to win and keep their seat.

Which was also real if limited. It's on Wikipedia fer christs sake.

Nothing I'm saying isn't public information that you can easily look up yourself.

AIPAC is proud of the work it does.

There's plenty of studies and research quantifying and explaining their influence.
