AIPAC endorsed scores of Jan 6th insurrectionists. They are no friend to American democracy.
They are one of the more racist and bigoted PACs in Congress as well, who disproportionately target members of color.

Certainly, my father was against antisemitism, as am I.
He also believed militarism (along with racism and poverty) to be among the interconnected Triple Evils.

Don't be dejected in thinking that the protests, the letters, the boycotts, all forms of dissent meant to end the genocide of Palestinians aren't working. They are working. Not quickly enough, not as fast as we want or need them to, but they are. The only choice is to continue.
Ante las inaceptables violaciones del Derecho Internacional Humanitario en que ha incurrido Israel en la franja de Gaza, como Gobierno de Chile hemos resuelto llamar en consultas a Santiago al embajador de Chile en Israel, Jorge Carvajal.

“You gonna have conference now?”
“I’m not sure. I’d like a glass of wine. That’s what I’m gonna do,” @NancyMace—one of the 8 who ousted McCarthy—tells me.
Israel's minister of national security, Itamar Ben-Gvir, said the only thing that should enter Gaza until the hostages are released are “hundreds of tons of explosives” from the Israeli Air Force, "not an ounce of humanitarian aid.”
Journalists should remember that Israel's first response after they killed their colleague Shireen Abu-Akleh was to say Palestinians shot her. This is part of a consistent Israeli military information damage control strategy in response to such events.
