"The Israeli people have the right to live in peace and security. So do the Palestinian people. I remain concerned about the platform AIPAC provides for leaders who express bigotry and oppose basic Palestinian rights."
Bernie Sanders
"We don't intervene in the internal American electoral process, which is splendid."
Israeli FM Israel Katz
AIPAC is not required to register as a foreign agent, because technically it doesn't meet the requirements of the applicable rules/laws. But by any stretch of the imagination, does AIPAC benefit the USA? I don't see how.
My personal belief is that Bernie is absolutely right. Unfortunately for all concerned, my beliefs don't count for much. And if Bernie is denied the presidency on this issue, then our "internal electoral process" is a joke.
