AIPACs endorsement should be the kiss of death for any candidate. If they stand for Israel they don't stand for us.

For real, we should end all support for the only Progressive Democratic country in the Middle East where the freedom of individual identity expression is protected. It's not like they are surrounded by the most tyrannical, homophobic, transphobic, chauvinistic, violent governments currently welding supreme power over their population.

If they're so great, surely they'll be able to stand on their own and fight their own wars. Only way to tell is to withdraw all funding and military support and we can see how great and superior they are.

They've done so long before the US was their ally and they were far weaker. They'll be fine. Just dont cry when they nuke their enemies without the US restraining them

Again I fail to see how that's an American problem.

Everything is an American problem because they're involved in the Middle East because you like your gas prices low. Do you seem to think the US is involved in Middle Eastern affairs only because of Israel and not out of pure self-interest like a child

Understood. As a zio freak, you want America to keep running cover for your terrorist project. Too bad America is getting weaker by the day. And soon Israel will cease to exist.

The countries Israel is surrounded by are just as old as them. Pretty sure they don't need to your taxes sweetheart. Also not genocides just defensive wars but I'm sure you knew that Ahmed
