Harper put her on top in Ohio and I suspect if that happened on a push from NeoCons of US or Harper himself didn't like Obama.
It's shameful. They may even kill him the way they killed Kennedy on the same day under the pretext of Palestine ... ]]>
US Presidential Election or American AIPAC Idol?tag:tpmcafe.talkingpointsmemo.com,2008:/talk//17.1988212008-06-05T04:27:11Z2008-06-05T04:27:11Zasemaany
Isn't it unpatriotic to see that a lobby has such a power that all three candidates of the United States enthusiastically appear in front of its judges and try their best to please them?
"In their 2006 working paper The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy, University of Chicago professor John Mearsheimer and Harvard University Kennedy School of Government professor Stephen Walt
accuse AIPAC of being "the most powerful and best known" component of a
larger pro-Israel lobby that, they say, distorts American foreign
policy. They write: "AIPAC's success is due to its ability to reward
legislators and congressional candidates who support its agenda, and to
punish those who challenge it. ... AIPAC makes sure that its friends
get strong financial support from the myriad pro-Israel PACs.
Those seen as hostile to Israel, on the other hand, can be sure that
AIPAC will direct campaign contributions to their political opponents.
... The bottom line is that AIPAC, which is a de facto agent
for a foreign government, has a stranglehold on the U.S. Congress. Open
debate about U.S. policy towards Israel does not occur there, even
though that policy has important consequences for the entire world."" (from wikipedia) ]]>
