I did not know this: AIPAC supports RePukes by more that 2 : 1 over Dems. Sort the linked page by party.

It's fucking ugly.

R's never hold them accountable (and no, I'm not saying this with re: to general support of Israel, but rather everything else).

For example if the governor of Maine wins the democratic nomination for the senate, she is supported by AIPAC as is the current republican senator , Collins

AIPAC buys both and either way they win

Evangelicals believe that all Jews will return to Israel as part of prophecy. At one point, they partnered with Fundamentalist Jews in Israel and helped finance and promote a law in Israel that would have declared that only Jews residing in Israel were actual Jews. They think they can force God's hand through legislation. They've always supported the expansion of Israeli settlements in Palestinian territories. There's also the red heifer belief held by some evangelical Christians and certain Orthodox Jews that finding and sacrificing a perfectly red heifer is a necessary step to usher in end-times prophecies, including the rebuilding of the Third Jewish Temple in Jerusalem and the Second Coming of Christ. Republicans are trying to cause the Second Coming because they believe that despite all of their racism, greed. and lying etc they will be at the right hand of God after the rapture and everyone will look up and say, "well look, there's billy bob seated at the right hand of God".

Their sole purpose is to keep America sending money to Israel!

Israel enjoys many things we don’t get in the US because they are considered “socialist”!!

I don’t want ANY dems taking money from any foreign agent. They will become beholden to what their sponsors want!

Look at what happened to Charlie Kirk when he decided he wasn’t going to be a slave to Israel!
