AIPAC certainly is. There is something quite humiliating about the AIPAC conference- even senior US Politicians who quite publicly espouse the cause of justice for the Palestinians effectively stand in line to prostrate themselves before this Lobby group.

Why doesn't someone with balls just stand up there and say 'We will continue to be the worlds biggest donor for you, we will continue to guarantee your existence, as long as you vacate the occupied territories".

Considering the Israeli government itself has verbally accepted this position, whats anathemic to standing up and saying the Truth? The US is quite willing to stand up to the UN and anyone else, and put things on the line- why not tiny Israel, the beneficiary of so much of your taxpayers money?
