🚨 Thread: Debunking the latest viral smear against AIPAC because facts matter more than fearmongering.

This post calling @AIPAC “evil” and accusing it of “buying politicians” through “hidden sites”?

It’s textbook anti-Israel propaganda. Here’s why, broken down step by step.

◾𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗺: AIPAC allegedly uses “opaque portals” for anonymous donations to hide its influence.

𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆? AIPAC’s PAC bundles individual contributions, totally legal and transparent under FEC rules. Over $51M tracked in 2024 by OpenSecrets. Not “hidden,” just standard lobbying like the @NRA or @SierraClub does.

🤦‍♀𝗡𝗼, 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘆 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲.

◾𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗼 𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗨.𝗦. 𝘁𝗮𝘅𝗲𝘀 “𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗱” 𝘁𝗼 𝗜𝘀𝗿𝗮𝗲𝗹 𝗳𝗼𝗿 “𝗮𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀,” 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗜𝗣𝗔𝗖 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹𝘀 “𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘁𝗹𝗲𝗱” 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘆

This ignores decades of bipartisan U.S.-Israel aid ($3.8B/year, mostly military) as a security partnership not AIPAC’s doing. Its policy critique twisted into demonization.

◾𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗶-𝗜𝘀𝗿𝗮𝗲𝗹 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮?

It exaggerates AIPAC’s role to paint Israel supporters as shadowy puppet-masters. This fuels anti-Israel narratives by omitting context:

AIPAC advocates domestically for a U.S. ally, just like lobbies for Ukraine or Taiwan.

😳 𝗦𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘁 𝗼𝘂𝘁? That’s the bias showing.

◾𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘀𝗲𝗺𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀:

Words like “entitled” and “buying politicians” echo old tropes of “Jewish control.” Even if not explicit, it’s a dog-whistle in anti-Israel circles.

𝗟𝗲𝗴𝗶𝘁 𝗰𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗶𝘀𝗺 𝗶𝘀 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗲, 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗼𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗱𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝘃𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗲.

🤔 Bottom line: Don’t fall for viral outrage. Check sources and demand balance. AIPAC isn’t perfect, but this post? Pure propaganda pushes an anti-Israel agenda. Share facts, not fiction.
