Two Wings of the Same Bird

1 month ago 63

Both parties—Democrats and Republicans—consistently prioritize the interests of Israel over those of the American people. This is evident in foreign aid, military policy, lobbying influence, and bipartisan legislative support that overwhelmingly benefits Israel, often at the expense of U.S. taxpayers and national interests.

  1. Unwavering Bipartisan Support

The U.S. gives Israel over $3.8 billion in military aid annually, with both parties ensuring this funding never stops, even during economic crises at home.

AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee) holds immense sway over both parties, ensuring no major candidate dares to criticize Israeli policies without political consequences.

Both Trump and Biden openly supported moving the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem, a move that served Israeli geopolitical interests while destabilizing relations in the region.

  1. Laws Prioritizing Israel Over Free Speech

Anti-BDS laws in the U.S. punish American citizens and businesses for boycotting Israel, even though boycotts are a constitutionally protected form of free speech.

Many states have passed loyalty oaths requiring contractors to pledge not to boycott Israel—something not required for any other foreign nation.

  1. Wars and Foreign Policy Aligned with Israeli Interests

Iraq War (2003)—Driven by neoconservatives with deep ties to Israel, this war served Israel’s regional security goals by eliminating Saddam Hussein, a major opponent of Israeli expansion.

Syria & Iran Sanctions—Both parties continuously push for sanctions and military aggression against Iran and Syria, two nations that challenge Israeli hegemony in the region.

Gaza Conflict—Both Democrats and Republicans provide Israel with weapons and diplomatic cover, regardless of civilian casualties or human rights violations.

  1. Israeli Influence in U.S. Elections

Major donors on both sides—like Haim Saban (Democrats) and Sheldon Adelson (Republicans)—heavily fund candidates based on their support for Israel.

Candidates who question U.S. aid to Israel or its policies are quickly sidelined or smeared as "anti-Semitic," effectively ending their political careers.

No matter who wins—Democrat or Republican—Israel’s interests remain protected, military aid flows uninterrupted, and U.S. foreign policy stays aligned with Israeli geopolitical goals. The American people, meanwhile, are left with rising debt, endless wars, and a government that serves foreign interests over its own citizens.
