How powerful is the pro Israel Jewish lobby? #israel #geopolitics #news

How powerful is the pro-Israel Jewish lobby in the US? AIPAC, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, is the biggest pro-Israel Jewish lobby in America. AIPAC donated $17.4 million towards pro-Israel candidates running for Congress in 2022. Sounds like a lot but it is less than 0.2% of the total $9 billion that Republicans and Democrats raised for the 2022 election cycle. A drop in the ocean. You should also know that American Jews are as divided as non-Jews when it comes to Israel. Only 17% of American Jews support Israeli settlements in the west bank. The result is that political giving by Jewish Americans with opposing attitudes towards Israel often cancel each other out. For example, the groups behind the recent pro-Hamas Israel-bashing protests in New York received more than $15 million from George Soros, a Jew, since 2016. Jewish Americans are big political donors to the Democratic Party. Yet, you have to be very naïve to think that US policies under Obama and Biden are pro-Israel. Unless of course you think turning over $200bn to Iran, Israel’s arch enemy and the backer of Hamas and Hezbollah, is pro-Israel. David Woo, a former top-ranked Wall Street global macro strategist, tells it as it is. You may not agree with everything he says but he will make you reassess everything you thought you knew.
