AIPAC AND OTHER FRIENDS OF ISRAEL
For years we have been told by donkeys of various leadership levels that the fate of Israel is dependent in great measure on Jewish groups and support in the United States. And the name of AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee) always led all the rest. For this was the mysterious, powerful (all-powerful?) Israel lobby that both anti-Semites and Jews spoke of in terms of supernatural powers. Who can tell the wonders of AIPAC? It controlled Congress (and let us overlook a few minor defeats such as F-15 planes and AWACs to Arabis). It helped determine U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East. Indeed, it was one of the basic reasons against Jewish aliyah, for if AIPAC and friends went to Israel, who would be here to save the Jewish state…?

And then Tom Dine and AIPAC announced that they supported Reagan over Begin – and in the name of good Israel-American relations. And AIPAC walked in the path of not a few other major Jewish organizations. And the Israel lobby was suddenly no longer the comfortable salon it had always been.
Let the donkeys learn two lessons from this.
One: Israel has no need of “lobbies,” but of a home. Jews in the United States will not save Israel. Jews who do G-d’s will and leave the accursed Exile, will.
Two: The lobbies have lost their alleged strength and they, themselves, know it. A strong President can blow away the Israel lobby and its corridors. The American people and Congress are turning on Israel, and the impotency of AIPAC and all the other illusions will be clearly seen.
Three: They themselves know it, and that is why they not only shrink from battle but leap to support the programs that are disastrous for Israel. Its fear of anti-Semitism growing out of a conflict between Israel and America is greater than its support for Israel. Because of this, it will move to pressure Israel to be more “moderate” and “flexible.” It will pretend to love Israel to the death and only oppose Begin. But the truth is, it lives in horror of anti-Semitism and will sacrifice Israel to try and avert it. Let AIPAC and all the others become Jewish.
Leave the lobby and enter the Jewish home, Israel. STOP EATING WITH THE GENTILES, TOM DINE, AND INSTEAD EAT WITH YOUR FELLOW JEWS IN THE LAND OF ISRAEL!!!
