AIPAC faces test of its power in Illinois primary as Democrats debate future of Israel relationship The aggressive spending comes after AIPAC put $2 million into a recent Democratic primary for a special election in New Jersey, an effort that's widely considered to have backfired.

Please, anyone, explain to me why Democratic voters should support Democrats taking money from AIPAC which, in part, pushed us into this war with Iran and is spending money AGAINST Democrats.

It’s easy to imagine someone who raped more children than we know about launching an illegal war to keep it hidden.

I understand that. I can see them demanding regime change in the U.S. too. Can’t blame them at all.

It’s not supporting the troops to send them off to kill and die in an illegal war of aggression whose purpose is to make sure that their votes don’t count.

I suspect this war is going to make AIPAC as popular as the NRA among Democratic primary voters.

US strikes against Iran could see oil prices jump $10 to $20 or more with no deescalation After the US and Israel struck Iran with a series of air strikes on Saturday, triggering immediate retaliation, oil prices could jump by $10 to $20 or more.

If creating chaos and war is what makes America great, we are definitely winning the biggest trophy ever....get ready for higher gas prices folks.
