In Congress today, the war criminal who has starved, killed and maimed tens of thousands of Palestinians was given standing ovations and 70 applause breaks.
It wasn’t the only thing that happened. Over 100 Democrats boycotted the address and thousands protested outside. Still, I think this cartoon captures the spectacle of what happened inside the building.
Name these profits Israel protects for the US lol.
Man again another fake news spread as gospel
Aipac is a split off from

They did it to avoid registrations as foreign agents
"If we look at the Middle East, I think it’s about time we stop, those of us who support, as most of us do, Israel in this body, for apologizing for our support for Israel.
There is no apology to be made. None. It is the best $3 billion investment we make.
Were there not an Israel, the United States of America would have to invent an Israel to protect her interest in the region; the United States would have to go out and invent an Israel.
I am with my colleagues who are on the floor of the Foreign Relations Committee, and we worry at length about NATO; and we worry about the eastern flank of NATO, Greece and Turkey, and how important it is. They pale by comparison…
They pale by comparison in terms of the benefit that accrues to the United States of America."
Joe Biden, 1986.
You didn’t name the profits israel protects… I am assuming you can’t.
Citing an AIPAC hoes speech from 30 years ago aimed at bolstering the propaganda you are repeating is support for the initial claim.
Again, US doesn’t benefit front this genocide or support of Israel.
This support is detrimental to the US geopolitical position. If US cut Israel off tomorrow, nothing would change for the US like
Israel would be fucked tho. 🐸
What profits do I “name?” That Israel protects US access to oil, ergo profits?
You genuinely have no concept of geopolitics.
Lol what?
Said a guy who doesn’t understand current global oil market lol
JFC. You are spouting Israeli propaganda without even understanding it. Do some basic due diligence on the topic please.
What don’t you understand about the US maintaining a loyal military powerhouse in the Middle East to force negotiations in their favor? Bringing a gun to the table when making a deal makes it go smoother for the Genocidal US Empire.
I don’t quite follow how pointing out that the US has and will always maintain support for Israel to protect US economic interests is Israeli propaganda, I am directly calling out the Genocidal Empire and its leashed dog.
US has minimal economic interest in the middle east, look at the US trade flows. No country is the middle east is threat to the US in any meaningful sense.
Also, we are a net exporter of oil for at least a decade now.
You spouting Israeli propaganda to justify US support for their clown regime and genocide.
This relationship is a huge negative for the US geopolitical interests and the world order we maintain. And it appears like the normies don’t even understand these risks because “empire needs military bases” we have bases in many countries without a genocide lol and “economic interests” that nobody can articulate
AIPAC really got the entire country by the balls it seems sniffing israeli farts
Just because YOU don’t understand why the US maintains a foothold in the middle-east, doesn’t mean we don’t. Nor is the US state and corporations that massively benefit from keeping their “unsinkable aircraft carrier” (Israel) ignorant of it.
yet neither of you is able to produce an example of a single tangible benefit either US state or corpos get here…
Maintaining control on the supply and flow of oil is one of the more important tasks on the US Empire’s list.
Doesn’t matter, the US needs to maintain control so the world has to trade in US Petrodollars.
Nope, I want the American Empire to collapse and Israel to be abolished into a One-State Solution. That Solution starts with recognizing why the US supports Israeli genocide.
Oh, I think I get it, you support the US Empire and want it to succeed, that’s why you call it “world order.” Additionally, the purposes of those bases are of course maintenance of Empire.
Partially true, but the US needs Israel if it wants to maintain the Petrodollar standard.
