Wäre der Zentralrat der Juden doch mehr wie AIPAC
AIPAC, die pro Israelische Lobbygruppe, die Amerika so gut wie regiert, hatte am 7.März ihre Tagung. Es scheint man versucht nicht mehr zu verschweigen wie mächtig man ist, man trägt die Macht zur Schau, nach dem Motto:"Na und, wir wissen das die Welt sich nur für uns in den Irakkrieg und wahrscheinlich bald auch Irankrieg stürzt, aber wir haben die Macht und ihr könnt nichts gegen machen".
When the thousands of lobbyists descended on Capitol Hill, they were greeted by nearly every U.S. senator and more than half the members of the House of Representatives — approximately 500 meetings were held between AIPAC representatives and members of Congress on Tuesday alone. In addition to pushing for the sanctions plan, the goal was to showcase the strength of AIPAC and establish more ties for future communication and lobbying.
The AIPAC activists were aided in their mission by some members of Congress themselves, who advised them how to reach out to their colleagues.
“Our commitment to Israel defines us as a nation,” said Republican Norm Coleman of Minnesota, a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, adding that the AIPAC lobbyists “help make sure that we don’t forget.”
Fast alle Senatoren und die meisten der Abgesandten im Congress machen keinen Hehl draus das die Lobby sie kontroliert.
he closing gala dinner on Monday night was attended by a who’s who of Washington’s A-list. At that event, AIPAC’s executive members…read what they excitedly referred to as “the roll call” of those in attendance. It took 13 minutes and included the bulk of Congress, as well as high-ranking officials from the White House, the State Department and the National Security Council. Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert…waded into America’s debate over Iraq in a manner that the Israeli leadership has avoided until now. He openly urged AIPAC delegates to push Congress to support the Bush administration’s current strategy in Iraq…
Joe Biden made sure his presence was registered. “Hi, I’m Joe Biden!” he said repeatedly, adding several times, “I’ve been hanging out with AIPAC for years!” …
Clinton and Obama held competing dessert receptions in the conference center…both eager to highlight their pro-Israel credentials… “I can’t decide,” one AIPAC delegate said. “I’d really like to see Obama in person, but Hillary is better for Israel”…
Obama had recently said, “Nobody is suffering more than the Palestinian people” at a recent event in Iowa — a statement that served to anger some AIPAC delegates.
Während President Bush verhaßt ist unter den Amerikanern, bei AIPAC ist er noch beliebt:
Whose President?
Bush’s popularity ratings have recently dropped to record lows. The overwhelming majority of Americans seem to detest him. Is there anyone who still supports this man?
During the opening night’s events, large video screens behind the speaker’s podium showed a chronological slide show of U.S. presidents and their Israeli prime minister contemporaries, and when the display eventually reached George W. Bush, the room erupted into applause — far more applause than the crowd had given for Reagan, Kennedy or even Truman. And when Cheney first appeared on the stage on Monday morning, the crowd immediately rose to its feet and filled the room with loud applause…It seemed a remarkable contrast to the currently dismal public opinion polls regarding Bush and Cheney. As one delegate standing nearby commented during the vice president’s speech, “This has got to be the last crowd that still greets him this way.”
Die einzige Opposition kommt von den orthodoxen Juden
HIS week saw yet another reminder of the awesome power of “the lobby”. The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) brought more than 6,000 activists to Washington for its annual policy conference. And they proceeded to live up to their critics’ darkest fears.
They heard from the four most powerful people on Capitol Hill—Nancy Pelosi and John Boehner from the House, Harry Reid and Mitch McConnell from the Senate—as well as the vice-president (who called his talk “The United States and Israel: United We Stand”) and sundry other power-brokers…The display of muscle was almost equalled by the display of unnerving efficiency…The only discordant note was sounded by a group of a dozen protesters—Orthodox Jews in beards, side-curls and heavy black coats—holding up signs saying “Stop AIPAC”, “Torah forbids Jews dictating foreign policy”, and “Judaism rejects the state of Israel”.

Wäre es nicht schön wenn wir in Deutschland auch einfach der Macht des Zentralrates der Juden Hulde bringen wenn wir der Politischen Korrektheit Lippendienst erweisen, statt scheinheilig einander zu belügen?
