When one of our Democratic congressmen starts carrying water for AIPAC, which has been involved in extensive espionage cases against the United States employing well known neocons for the past 40 years, it's time for said congressman to go.
Steny Hoyer whipped out the "anti-semite" card on Jim Moran when he conflated "the jewish community" with AIPAC's undue influence. This is exactly what AIPAC does when anyone criticizes them. It's obvious just exactly WHO is under the undue influence of AIPAC: Steny Hoyer.
And so, as I pointed out previously with my article This is to YOU, Nancy Pelosi: Impeach or resign, our Democratic Party finds itself too entangled with AIPAC to effectively lead this nation out of the mess it's in.
Afterall, it was YOU. NANCY PELOSI, that quietly agreed to strip out of the Iraq funding bill the provision that would have required Congressional approval before Boss Bush could launch a war against Iran.
And as I pointed out then, Nancy did it because:
She was "under pressure from some conservative members of her caucus, and from lobbyists associated with neoconservative groups that want war with Iran and the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC)," writes Nichols.
Now it's time to remember come Hoyer's next primary that he stood up for AIPAC and not for America.
Don't fool yourself. This is the same game AIPAC plays.
They told me stories of it being impossible to convene a private meeting of Democrats who would want to challenge the Israel Lobby because when they had tried that they had found that every name of the attendees was in the hands of AIPAC lobbyists within an hour of the conclusion of that meeting and many of the attendees had been subject to immediate and intense pressure as though they had decided to abandon Israel (which they had not, nor is that what Tikkun calls for). And what they told me rang true: that AIPAC and the Israel Lobby had a large constituency of single-issue voters who would support a challenge to them in their next primaries, or possibly even in the general elections, should they not retain AIPAC’s approval. A perfectly legitimate tactic by AIPAC, but used in this instance to support very bad policies.
A perfectly legitimate tactic. And two can play that game. Time to primary Steny Hoyer straight to hell.
