Two dueling congressional letters on Palestinian statehood reveal how toxic Israel has become among Democrats and show just how far AIPAC’s influence has fallen in Washington.
Democratic candidates who take even one dollar from pro-Israel PACs must be confronted, challenged, and exposed as loudly as possible.
Breaking AIPAC’s hold in Washington is on the horizon, but it is only the first step in changing long-entrenched U.S. policy toward Israel. Still, it’s a big step, and we already have the advocacy tools we need to do the rest of the work. Justice is possible, but the road is long. We’ve come farther than many may think.
