    You are just digging in deeper and admit that you read a book and bought it hook, line, and sinker.

    I see that you are already immersed in this realm that Jews are the puppeteers of the world. I don’t care to discuss this as this brainwashing has already cost me one dear friend. You are welcome to support the Palestinians and Muslim extremists all you like; but please done expect clear thinking individuals to join you at that trough.

    I've never read any book on 9/11 conspiracies or any book on Jewish conspiracies. I do think Israel has incredible influence on US foreign policy in the Middle East and AIPAC has tremendous influence over US politicians. So do many super-smart people (many of them are Jews).

    Again, you've failed to show that any fact I've introduced is incorrect or any argument I've made is illogical. If you could you would imo.

    Here's Jeffrey Sachs saying the same exact things I said in a Tucker Carlson interview. Sachs is Jewish and a professor at Columbia

    Professor John Mearsheimer on the Israel Lobby and US foreign policy. Mearsheimer is the R. Wendell Harrison Distinguished Service Professor at the University of Chicago. He is Jewish.

    There are kernels of truth in most of what you have said. It is a reach however to put those kernels together in the way these people do and draw their conclusions.

    Thomas Massie recently disclosed that almost every member of Congress has an “AIPAC minder” to keep them in line.

    If they don't pledge allegiance to Israel representatives and senators are likely to find that AIPAC will help find their replacement. Sometimes AIPAC will take out an ad in the NY Times to help ruin your chances to get re-elected. Congressmen are reluctant to say this publicly of course.

    Edit: As an example AIPAC spent $9M to oust Rep Cori Bush

    If AIPAC spending bothers you, would you favor a Constitutional Amendment allowing the regulation of campaign spending especially considering that while AIPAC spent around $100 million supporting dozens of candidates during the last cycle a single donor spend $277 million supporting a single candidate.

    Well, Netanyahu called for the US to help topple the governments of 7 countries in 1996 and Amrrica has intervened in 6 of them (the exception being Iran).

    Not a coincidence imo. I respect your position and enjoy reading your posts (especially the ones involving gator_jo).

    It's not so much tjlhe spending as much as what the money is for. I oppose dumb wars that produce mass casualties and bankrupt our economy

    Never mind sources - I don’t take kindly to Shooting the Messenger Fallacy - is it really a stretch to suggest that Israel wields an outsized influence on US foreign policy ?

    Wielding an outsized influence is probably a fair assessment. Running our foreign policy is an overstatement.

    At some point that becomes a difference without a distinction. Witness Trump’s cabinet. He’s even elevated a former IDF officer to his administration.

    Would you suggest that Musk is running the Trump administration ? Asking for another poster on this thread.

    Not saying how long the situation will persist but for now when Elon says "Jump!" Donnie responds with "How high?".

    Probably true. Also [insert X country running US foreign policy]. Also stands as evidence that our ‘democracy’ is presently instructed to naturally allows you to buy influence.

    Is it just me or does it seem like Vegas has too much time on his hands?

    Probably wouldn’t be a bad idea.
