Now, the state of Israel – not AIPAC, to be clear – is running television ads in Iowa, a key Senate battleground state that may only be in play for Democrats thanks to the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran.
In one TV ad, Israel specifically touts its willingness to wage war. “Israel confronts Iran and its network of proxies directly, addressing those dangers at their source,” the ad says, claiming that this helps “deter aggression” and “stop a wider conflict” – as if America isn’t currently at war with Iran.
“For Americans, the benefit is straightforward,” the ad claims
US law strongly needs an enema.
Until the criminals are out of the justice department, or the executive thereof, no one is receiving justice.
Because Israel has taken over our government through blackmail and bribery.
Not quite. Israel was allowed to act like it took over your government due to its interests aligning with those of your ruling class. The Musks and Zuckerbergs of America would be acting very differently if they didn’t like what they were seeing.
But the USA has always been a willing participant, one could even say it started the other way round.
Israel has less money than California alone. Don’t be silly.
USA founded Israel as our base of operations in the middle east. It’s our baby, and it wouldn’t last long without US support.
Our government has been taken over, you can tell who took it over quite easily. They’re international interests that control our monetary system, who control all of the wealth. Look at who “serves” at the Fed, and who they work for before and after their term.
JP Morgan Chase. Goldman Sachs. Vanguard. BlackRock. There’s a reason Amazon pays no taxes, and it’s not because they’re Israeli.
We give billions of dollars to Israel for defense and grants. They in turn funnel that back us via AIPAC.
USA founded Israel
No, the UK did that.
No names of the people who agreed to run the ad, I’m sure.
Because dollars are free speech
Apparently foreign countries have more free speech than Americans do in america
May Anthony Kennedy be remembered for this treason.
I fully expect Chuck Schumer to use this as a reason why the Democratic Party needs to be more visibly friendly to Isreal. Something like, “If we don’t want Isreal to give money to MAGA, we have to support their genocide.”
It’s not even like a Democrat admin would do things much differently. Israel is just maximising profits.

Most powers try to influence elections for various reasons its just part of the game
I mean, source? What’s France doing to influence US elections?
Hate to be that guy, but do you recall that little war they helped us win about 250 years ago?
I don’t hate to be that guy, but I said “doing,” not “did,” so it needs to something happening in the present.
Good point. I’m sure they have far too much going on right now to care.
France isn’t dependent on US aid for survival, why would they bother?
Israel is another thing. US aid is vital to their survival.
Russia and China have other motivations, but do what they can.

Also, note that OP said “most powers” and “various reasons”, which doesn’t mean “France is trying to influence US elections”, so your response is… well. You know.

Well clearly it’s causing trouble for them to have Trump around.

But “most powers” means more than just Russia and China; by sheer numbers it should include a good chunk of US-aligned powers. France was just the first example that came mind; you can replace it with Germany or Italy or what have you. The point is: What Israel is doing is in no way typical; most countries don’t try to manipulate their stronger allies’ political process (because usually they’d get shut down hard) and most countries don’t allow their weaker allies to manipulate their political process.
