If for some reason you still give to #AIPAC: time to find a better use for your pro- #Israel dollars. They lost me years ago, but now. . . WTF exactly is going on over there?
AIPAC has simply lost the plot.
The community desperately needs a moderate lobbying organization. With AIPAC falling into right-wing advocacy, and #JStreet still too aligned with the far left, there's nobody doing the really important work of trying to restore the consensus on Israel in Congress; at least, not with the impact AIPAC once had.

On Wednesday, #JStreet, a liberal pro-#Israel Jewish advocacy group, called the #ADL tracker “alarming” & criticized a statement by the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, a coalition of dozens of Jewish leaders, that referred to Mamdani’s election as “a grim milestone.” J Street argued that the groups taking aim at #Mamdani had not applied the same scrutiny to #Trump, “despite his long record of using #antisemitism & #bigotry for political gain.”

A political realignment??
After years of close ties to AIPAC, Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, House Democratic leader, has for the first time accepted an endorsement from J Street—a center-left group critical of Israel’s current government and supportive of a two-state solution. The move signals shifting dynamics in Congress, as J Street gains clout and AIPAC’s dominance is challenged by voices pushing for new approaches to U.S.-Israel policy. Jeffries’ step, once unlikely for a leading Democrat, reflects a broader change in how lawmakers engage with Israel-focused advocacy. What does this shift mean for Middle East policy on Capitol Hill?

#JStreet lobbying to stop arms sales to #Israel is everything wrong with that organization. Just when you start thinking that maybe they’ve grown up a bit and could find a way to support Israel without supporting the #Jewish state’s current right-wing psycho government, they pull crap like this.
Rule #1: We do not use the US government as a club with which to beat Israel into submission. Sadly that’s J Street’s entire playbook.
#AIPAC and J Street have both gone over their respective edges. 1/

Why are #Liberal #Zionists Cheering as #Harris Echoes #Biden on #Gaza?
by #AbbaASolomon
August 28, 2024Hours after #KamalaHarris gave her acceptance speech at the #Democratic convention, the president of the “pro-#Israel, pro-peace” organization #JStreet took a victory lap in an effusive e-mail to supporters. “Wow,” Jeremy Ben-Ami wrote. “What a week! As J Streeters leave the #DNC fired up and ready to go, it’s clear we’re having a greater impact than ever.” He added that “the vice president’s remarks on Israel- #Palestine were perhaps the clearest articulation of J Street’s values from a presidential nominee.”

Senator Schumer's comments on Israel & Gaza were spot on, in my opinion. And I've just signed the #JStreet letter/petition thNking the Majority Leader for his clear statement calling out both the #NetanyahuAdministration & Hamas for their abhorrent actions.
I encourage you to sign as well, and maybe even contribute a bit to J Street if you can. J Street has long been a constructive voice in Washington with respect to Israel and Palestine.

There is NO moral ground for #Israel to stand on. I don't understand why they continue to make themselves an international pariah while also guaranteeing the future of conflict and violence in the region. Who do they think they are serving?
It's clear that #Netanyahu is a vile, bloodthirsty racist and needs this war to justify his genocidal policies.

https://jewishcurrents.org/j-streets-pro-war-stance-prompts-staff-departures'They also pointed out that the war was likely to further radicalize Palestinians in #Gaza and that “Hamas can only truly be defeated by giving the #Palestinian people a true political horizon.” The employees underscored that J Street’s stance was damaging the group’s credibility among onetime allies: “Each day, we are losing the support of younger generations, Jews and non-Jews, who once saw J Street as an essential player in US politics and as the only viable left-leaning organization with sway in Washington over Israeli policies and practices.”'

A spokesman for #JStreet, accused Aipac of attempting to impose a narrow definition of what it is to be pro-Israel:
“#Aipac may hope to silence and intimidate political leaders who believe that settlement expansion, endless conflict and permanent occupation are harmful to Israel, the Palestinian people and US interests. Ultimately, however, these common-sense views are too popular, widespread and important to be suppressed.”
