AiPAC is American through, as are its members… who are Jewish.
We gotta be careful when we start saying politically organized minorities who hold citizenship aren’t American enough. It doesn’t sound good, and maybe you aren’t intending that, but that is how it comes off.
I never said being Jewish was a requirement. But it’s a political action committee representing the interests of Jewish-Americans.
And by the application of US law, and AIPAC’s observing of US law, it is an American organization. You can disagree, but you are literally arguing against US law here, not me or my opinion. It is your opinion that is not reflected by reality here. Which you are American as well, you are allowed to hold these opinions and in many ways I would agree the law is wrong here, but facts are facts, and they say you are wrong.
I never said they couldn’t donate to it. That doesn’t make it any more American.
The laws of the US state that money is speech and Americans are allowed to use their speech to support political causes.
But if the argument is that 3 million American Jews aren’t American enough, I am going to hold your feet to the fire on that.
Unless “it” somehow means “they”, we both know I’m talking about AIPAC.

Being Jewish is not a requirement. And I contend that any organization operating on foreign interests is foreign. I think that’s pretty clear by now.
