Why do Americans tolerate letting Israel dictate our Israel policy?

30. Very Simple

Can't believe most people's naivety on this subject. It is very simple and the root of it as most things is the corruption in the political system. Most important factor for all politicians in their positions is MONEY.

1) AIPAC is very powerful and buys both parties. Going against this lobby is very dangerous for any politician especially when there is little to gain (not going principle which has no currency in DC). Most politicians stay quiet and avoid any attention, and being the lone voice would be suicidal.

2) Less known and talked about is rich Jewish donors on both political parties. Right wing are always for more war but the left's donor base consists of large Jewish faction who support Israel unconditionally even despite their liberal politics. As dem politician without this base + AIPAC attacks it is almost impossible to win local elections yet alone national election as most politicians aspire to.

You get rid if money in politics and Israel would become irrelevant to US policy
