Fuck AIPAC

They welcome the fascist Trump and provide him a platform and microphone to spread hatred and violence toward Muslims, Hispanics, women, and anyone else he pleases.

Just like the mainstream media did, they are legitimizing him and would have no problem working with him if he gets elected president. All this while brave protesters have risked their safety to disrupt the Trump and call out his bigotry.

It really tells you something about AIPAC and their real priorities: Keeping the military-industrial-security gravy train rolling, defending the illegal occupation and further theft of Palestinian lands, and maintaining an apartheid society in Israel.

They don't deserve to hear from Bernie Sanders anyway and I'm glad he's not going.

They let Mitt and Newt teleconference in 2012 but not Bernie. Vested interests?

The Bernie campaign should simulcast a LIVE EVENT near by of Bernie giving his 'exposè speech' without restrictions just as if he attended AIPAC.

It will be interesting to see what he says.

My guess would be they didn't want him to attend because we would speak some difficult truths.

I see an attempt to overthrow our elected officials.

What else can I take from these actions?
