    I hate the idea that people throw around that Israel has any influence over the US. They don’t.

    Counterpoint: AIPAC

      The puppet made an advocacy lobby. A way to tell it’s imperial master what it wants. This isn’t influence, this is communication.

        Lobbyists - famous for having no influence.

            As for the US doing something it otherwise wouldn’t do, the US gains nothing from the genocide of Palestine that doesn’t relate directly to Israel. You’ve made two contradictory statements, and they’re both wrong.
