[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And this explains the Iran letter.

Cotton received $700,000 for his senate campaign from the Emergency Committee for Israel.That’s correct -- $700,000! Such an exorbitant amount of money ensures that Cotton is one of the most pro-Israel senators in Congress. During the 2014 Israeli invasion of Gaza, when over 500 Palestinian were killed, Cotton called the Israeli defense force “the most moral, humanitarian fighting force in the world.” In December he said Congress should consider supplying Israel with B-52s and so-called “bunker-buster” bombs for a possible strike against Iran.[/quote]

Yes, everything revolves around Israel.  [/quote]

Actually it was almost $1 million.

[b]According to newly released FEC filings, Cotton received $960,250 in supportive campaign advertising in the last month from the Emergency Committee for Israel (ECI), a right-wing group headed by the neoconservative pundit, Bill Kristol, who infamously predicted that the Iraq war would last two months. At its inception, the ECI was based out of the same Washington office as the Committee of the Liberation of Iraq, a pressure group that lobbied for the 2003 invasion.[/b][/quote]

In addition to the large contributions from ECI, Cotton’s political action committee, Arkansas Horizon, has also taken hundreds of thousands of dollars from pro-Israel groups headed by people such as Paul Singer and Seth Klarman, both of who have been trying to scuttle the Administration’s dealings with Iran over its budding nuclear program. Cotton also received money from billionaire casino magnate Sheldon Adelson.

He could have made it less obvious but apparently that's not how he rolls.[/quote]
