(JNS) Mitchell Bard - AIPAC's United Democracy Project contributed more than $14 million to support George Latimer's defeat of Rep. Jamaal Bowman in the Democratic primary. Supporting candidates aligned with one's values is a cornerstone of democratic participation. There was nothing new or illegal about AIPAC or other lobbies contributing money to the candidate that best reflects their views. For example, Emily's List is "a political action committee that supports Democratic pro-choice women candidates for office" that has spent $43 million in this election cycle. Do you hear any complaints about an organization supporting pro-choice women? After months of looking weak and fearful, it is past time for Jews and other supporters of Israel to exercise their muscles. No other group apologizes for using whatever power they possess to advance their interests. In this case, the interests of the pro-Israel community coincide with those of most Americans and the U.S. government. The upcoming elections present opportunities to reinforce bipartisan support for Israel and send a clear message that antisemitism will not be tolerated in our political discourse or policies. 2024-07-07 00:00:00Full Article
