    Ahhhh… the days before AIPAC!

    https://legis1.com/news/susan-collins-2026-senate-race-the-money-behind

    “The single most notable funding source in Collins’ campaign is the American Israel Public Affairs Committee. AIPAC bundled more than $538,000 from 315 individual donors in a recent filing period, according to the Bangor Daily News, and accounted for nearly 20 percent of all money Collins raised in 2025, per Zeteo. Cumulative AIPAC contributions to Collins over her career have been reported at approximately $647,000.”

      Aipac existed during oslo accords and when bush freezed 10 billions of dollars from Israel.

      Aipac is fully funded with american zionists, politician willfully take thr money, americans willfully voted for them for decades. You can’t whitewash american responsibility from the top to the bottom.

          You know it is bullshit but you still want to suck the usa dick and making excuses for it’s imperialism actions. Like i said aipac is funded by americans, politicians willfully accepted it’s money and americans voted for those candidates. The usa can destroy israel economically. Israel can’t.

            Not making excuses for anything, I’m flat out telling you Netanyahu is going to Netanyahu and it doesn’t matter who is running the United States or what they say.

            He made a fool of Biden, he’s making a fool of Trump, and it will continue unless someone steps in militarily, arrests him, and hauls his ass before a tribunal in the Hague.

            Nobody is willing to DO that because of AIPAC money.
