Why is the US so handcuffed to Israel's preferences?

This is why. AIPAC Demands Democrats ‘Stand With Israel’

The pro-Israel lobbying group has sent a flurry of communications to members of Congress, citing specific language for them to parrot in support of Israel’s strikes on Iran.

No one wants Iran to have nukes.

Not even the secular educated Iranians in Iran. Nor other mideastern Muslim countries. Or Europe. Or Africa. Or USA.

So everyone is going to keep playing dumb and let Israel take care of it.

Dunno, but they can get Congressmen to do stunts like this in our nation’s Capitol:

The Iranians do not have nuclear weapons, have not been moving forward with development, do not have fissionable material and are willing to negotiate. Israel attacked and failed to do anything but hit civilians targets. Now we are forced to attack Iran because they are not developing nuclear weapons?

This is just Israeli hatred of Iran and manipulating the US.


Great.
Then allow the 20 year backlog of inspections and the b52 bombing of the facility won’t matter. Then move on.
One of those two things will happen within 5 days.

America came in and deposed the Iranians' democratically elected Prime Minister Mosaddegh and then installed a son of one of their military men, named Raza Pahlvai, and named him Emperor (!!) Democracy for me but not for thee!

FYI, Reza Pahlavi's son, also named Reza Pahlavi still lives in Potomac, Maryland and is chomping at the bit to return to Iran and "lead," it because it is his "hereditary" right.

YOU CANNOT EVEN MAKE THIS $hi! up.

Can we explore why Iran has the leadership it has? Did we (the U.S.) do anything that lead to this? Hmm …

Can we explore why countries like Iran are actually hostile to the U.S.? Hmm …

No. Of course not. Of course we can’t.

Of course we can’t have honest conversations based on the historical record and the facts - because we’ve allowed the relentless parasite of Zionism (and its anti-semitism cudgel) to infect our sociopolitical construct.

Pointing an obvious finger at Zionism, whose alien policies and actions in the Middle East have cultivated enmity across the region, is forbidden. Facing facts head-on is also forbidden.

Instead, alternate facts are manufactured by Hasbara and regurgitated by our corrupted political class who long ago traded away their own integrity and America’s interests for a fistful of AIPAC shekels. The ROI on those shekels has been at least 60x over the past 75 years, so our political class also wears a shameful badge of ignominy for failing to understand even the basics of economic return.

Zionist propaganda reigns supreme. It’s gross. But maybe it will fade away one day. We can hope.


This is fascinating and I really wish I knew more, but is it religion or is it money? Or both? Why is the US entangled this way?


Why do stable countries have to “get involved” with supporting a new regime in lunatic, violent, irrational failed states? Hmm. And the alternative is what Biden and Obama did, turn a blind eye and let them do whatever they want? Hmm.

Israel lives in a neighborhood that they created. Israel does not negotiate, does not seek peace, does not abide by signed treaties, etc. Israel’s goal is to keep all neighboring states as failed states and spread pain, misery and death.


Yes this explains why they’ve had a peace agreement with Egypt and Jordan for years.


Yup. Egypt and Jordan and have left Israel alone and vice versa. The Palestinians in Gaza, Syria, and Lebanon, on the other hand don't know when to quit and have reaped their just rewards.


Those three are also funded by russia, China, Iran, Hamas, etc.

That would never happen. Read your history, the middle eastern nations all hate each other too much.

Which is why the terrorist’s exploding pager order from China was such a success.

The United State is not a democracy where one man equals one vote.

Our representatives are beholden to who donates to their campaign coffers the most.

Therefor the biggest donor decides what and how a politician votes.

The group with the largest concentration of wealth that donates actively to political causes also happen to be supporters of Israel so that is what the policy of the United States is.

I have read my history. Ever heard of the Silk Road? Countries in West Asia have not fought more than countries in Europe despite constant incursions from European invaders like the crusaders and now Ashkenazis.

Great another war the US is forced in to by Israel based on lies. Is the stated reason to attack Iran their nonexistent nuclear program or because they said mean thing about Israel?

Israel has become the mother lode of a Jewish Mother Guilting the US into paying for all sins committed against Jews beginning with Jehovah making Jews His chosen people.

It is way past time for Israelis to be wholly responsible for Israel and stop being a US protectorate. The cabal of American Jewish Billionaires can support Israel with the $$$$$$$$$$ trump has given them in tax breaks!

Can they pay us back the 300 billion dollars in aid we give them too? Maybe it's time they give us some aid since they have free healthcare and we don't.
