In reply to the discussion: The deep-pocket groups behind the coordinated astroturf anti-Israel events. [View all]Mosby
(16,707 posts)39. You don't see differences between a terrorist group and a Israeli political party?

Hamas originated from the Muslim Brotherhood, is trained and funded by Iran, started sending suicide bombers into Israel in the 1990s and are directly responsible for thousands of murders of Israeli citizens especially during the second intifada. They have started 5 wars with Israel (2008, 2009, 2014, 2021, 2023) via the Palestinian territory of Gaza, which they came to control after killing off their political rivals and chasing out the rest.
Can you help me understand how you could possibly see similarities with this group and a political party in Israel?

What does that have to do with the funding of pro-terrorist, anti-Biden events?

AIPAC's money goes to US politicians to get them to support Israel regardless

No they're not. They're not promoting and funding pro-terrorist anti-Biden protests.

AIPAC is not doing the same thing. AIPAC does not have ties to terrorist groups.

The fact that so many were out by 10/8 makes we wonder if any of these groups were aware before the attack
