Using Israel's logic for attacking Iran (to protect itself from (non-existent) Iranian nuclear weapons), every country in the Middle East (and beyond) would be justified in attacking Israel and destroying its (still undeclared) arsenal of 90 nuclear warheads. Trump’s assertion that if Iran developed a nuclear weapon, it would automatically use it against Tel Aviv, is preposterous, since Iran doesn’t want to be annihilated and surely would be if it did so. Israel, on the other hand, could nuke Iran and get away with it, as the US did Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Well, yeah. Saying anything contrary to Israel’s declared narrative, would cost them all that AIPAC money…and AIPAC would most likely fund a primary challenger to run against them.
Just look at what happened to Jamaal Bowman and Cori Bush.
Which is exactly why they should all be coming out against it. Take genocide money out of politics. Just like trump, with all republicans, the pressure to follow the singular narrative disappears when they all work together. It’s the point of having a party. Work together for the party good, not whomever lords over the party.
