At the annual meeting of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC,) the powerful American pro-Israel lobby which favors "enshrining" in U.S. law that it is "U.S. policy to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons." OccupyAIPAC held a counter-conference and disrupted AIPAC proceedings with its message "No attack on Iran." At the end of this video the AIPAC delegates, who are American citizens, break out into the Israeli national anthem.
OccupyAIPAC reports:
Four Occupy AIPAC activists voices erupted yesterday inside the AIPAC conference when Representative Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, who is pushing for a resolution which seeks to lower the threshold for the to US attack Iran, took the stage. An AIPAC delegate leaped over rows of chairs to pounce on the activists, choking one with his own tie.
Ros-Lehtinen is a primary sponsor of HR 1905, which seeks to make U.S. military action against alleged Iranian nuclear weapons programs part of official U.S. policy. AIPAC's legislative summary states that HR 1905:
enshrines in law that it is U.S. policy to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons.
A CNN poll last month found that a great majority of Americans oppose war with Iran, saying:
The New York Times reported in "Pro-Israel Delegates Have Washington’s Ear on Iran":only 17% of the public wants the U.S. to use force, with 60% saying diplomatic or economic action against Iran is the right response, and 22% saying no action should be taken at this time.
The NY Times said in the article:This year, for the first time, a counterlobby was set up by Occupy Aipac, a group that also protested outside the conference and made several attempts to disrupt its sessions. Medea Benjamin, a co-founder of the peace group Codepink and an Occupy leader, said about 200 people divided into nine teams and met with Congressional staff members on Friday, Monday and Tuesday, bringing their own talking points.
“It is important for our congresspeople to hear from both sides,” said Ms. Benjamin, “and hear from Americans horrified about the possibility of a war with Iran.”
The Aipac crowd, though, wanted to make sure that members were taking the possibility seriously.
The AIPAC attendees included Sen. Bob Corker of Tennessee, Sen. Lamar Alexander also of Tennessee, and Sen. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky.Andrew Groveman, a real estate developer from Memphis, was leading the group of delegates from an Israel lobbying group, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, through meetings on Capitol Hill. “As you know,” Mr. Groveman said, “we always have three points.”
“I thought this year the three were Iran, Iran, Iran,” said Mr. Corker, a Republican who sits on the banking committee that recently passed legislation tightening the noose of sanctions against Iran.
For three days, Iran has dominated the agenda of the annual conclave of Aipac, a must-have ticket for politicians eager to prove their pro-Israel bona fides.
Rarely mentioned in the media drumroll for war is the destabilizing effect that an attack on Iran would have across the Middle East, including Afghanistan, which borders Iran, and most worrisome, nuclear-armed Pakistan. It is feared that war on Iran would force a coup by the Islamist-riddled Pakistani ISI officer corp, which has already been caught helping the Taliban mount attacks on American troops in Afghanistan. Pakistan is already undergoing a tidal wave of anti-American sentiment as a result of stepped up U.S. drone attacks against purported Al Qaeda targets. Pakistani High Commissioner Wajid Shamsul Hasan has stated that, in the event of an Israeli attack on Iran, Pakistan “would be left with no option but to support Iran if Israel attacks it”.

The sad thing is, those evil people will eventually get America to invade Iran causing more American/Iran death while they sit back and enjoy their Kosher meal.
If Israel could truly take on Iran without US's help, they wouldn't bother and go ahead and attack those Iranian nuclear sites, just like they have in Iraq.

Yes it does WIJG but I'm not going to post proof. You need to do your own researching. Im not going to spend a vast a amount of time posting my sources just for any of you to conclude my sources false in seconds. Most of my sources are not on the internet anyway. Real legit sources are not on the internet.

Zionist-hasbarat scum mangling a saying which he has no understanding of, saying it is "in the Constitution" which it is not, which he has never read. The saying goes "freedom is not free," not "free speech." It is true that freedom is not free. It requires us to be diligent about trolls loyal to foreign governments and their constant lies, half-truths, and distortions. It requires us to think for ourselves, not believe media portrayals of poor Israel a tiny country just trying to exist, rather than stealing more land that doesn't belong to it every day.
They assaulted the old man in the video because he disagreed. The assailants probably were acting instinctively just as they did when they were in the IDF, stomping on the neck of any Palestinian who annoyed you, with the whores in Congress and Obama always ready with a UN veto of any resolution condemning them.
My question is, why were they singing the Israeli national anthem, and does this not fairly expose their true loyalties? Although I am proud of my heritage on all sides, I will never STAND and sing the anthem of any other country but America. I might listen respectfully, but that's not my song. I have one country.
Chances are most of the AIPACers hold dual Israeli-American citizenship. Should that even be legal?
The people in this video do not give a sh!t about America. Fuk America. Dumb cannon fodder. Any proof you need that they think you are stupid is provided by Flairon's and the other hasbarats' mode of argument: logical fallacies they think you won't see, mixing truth with lie, constant derailing of threads which expose truth.

Israeli forces cutting down Palestinian farmers' hundred-year-old olive trees to make way for Israeli settlements:
Here is are top recipients of AIPAC money. COMPLETE LIST HERE. Expose how much your congressman is taking in a letter to local editors, and call for his arrest for treason. American boys die as a result of the decisions made under this influence. Not one more American life, not one more American bomb dropped on Muslim children for Israel. Remember the USS Liberty.

If you don't know what free speech is and the the responsibility that comes with that and every other freedom you have, then take that half a retard voodoo and both of you go read the Constitution together and then go look at supreme court rulings on the 1st amendment, maybe between the two of you it will become clear. Though I doubt it.
