Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

I'll take a short break from insulting everyone in sight and ask a legit question

I'm curious about what the naysayers would consider to be an allowable level of criticism of AIPAC as a lobbying entity specifically and Israel in general as a nation-state. Money talks in the United States Congress, so if it's anti-Semitic to talk about the money that they spend to influence Congress because of historical caricatures about Jews and money, how does one even broach the topic? AIPAC is the largest foreign policy-related donor to congress at $3.5 million in 2018 (UNICEF is next at 744k), and they also pay for members to visit Israel. Is Bernie Sanders an anti-Semite for being critical of the way Israel treats the Palestinians? Does someone need to be Jewish in order to criticize Israel's government?
