Did AIPAC reveal a bit too much in its July 30 fundraising letter?
[quote]“AIPAC meets with every candidate running for Congress. These candidates receive in-depth briefings to help them completely understand the complexities of Israel’s predicament and that of the Middle East as a whole. We even ask each candidate to author a ‘position paper’ on their views of the U.S.-Israel relationship–so it’s clear where they stand on the subject.”

“Members of Congress, staffers and administration officials have come to rely on AIPACs memos. They are VERY busy people and they know that they can count on AIPAC for clear-eyed analysis… We present this information in concise form to elected officials. The information and analyses are impeccable–after all our reputation is at stake. This results in policy and legislation that make up Israel’s lifeline.” [/quote]
Yes…Israeli propaganda distributed to American politicians, paid for, in part, by American taxpayers! :bravo:

The author, John Walsh, fails to mention the lawsuits against AIPAC/Israeli spies within the Cheney administration, and the recent decision in the Rosen and Weismann case. :bravo:
