The idea all anti-Israel criticism is driven by antisemitism is as absurd as the idea none of it is
The weaponization of antisemitism is counter-productive
Some of the push back on the right is fueled more by plain old free-speech defiance ("don't tell me who I can criticize") than antisemitism.

"If we do a GoFundMe for the amount you have received from lobbyists, would you work for us? How much would we need to raise?"

The Director of Policy for that real estate lobby group hasn't been indicted by the FBI for handling classified defense documents passed on to the Israeli government though, like AIPAC's former Director of Policy has.
AIPAC is a higher priority, because it's a higher threat.

Whatever you think of Charlie Kirk (I'll resist speaking ill of the dead) this is something he was starting to explore with his mostly young, white, christian, conservative audiences.
It seems *everyone* is sick of the pro-Israel lobby's gaslighting:

"20 years ago" isn't a defense
And yeah, I'll give all the details of AIPAC's FARA controversies; its $100M+ election apparatus and "domestic" influence ecosystem; plus a full comparative analysis with Qatar, in one comment.
Then I'll do the Mueller report and US campaign finance law as a Haiku 🙄

Apparently explaining that some people think AIPAC is acting as an agent of a foreign state because one of its Directors was indicted by the FBI for espionage on behalf of the Israeli government, is too much to cope with.

Here is another anti-Zionist who also happens to be Jewish.
I'm 100% certain people will accuse him of not being a "real" Jew, of not being Jewish *enough*, being antisemitic, maybe even a holocaust denier.
Why? Because he believes Zionism is antithetical to Judaism.
That's it. That's his crime

Be aware, some will accept (reluctantly) Rabbi Weiss is in fact Jewish, but because he addresses holocaust deniers directly, they'll imply he is one.
He isn't.

Like I said, some people will claim Jews who are anti-Zionist are not "real" Jews.
When someone implies a Jewish person is somehow less Jewish because they criticize Zionism, you know they have no credibility.
There's no such thing as the "wrong kind of Jew" . . .

If the "National Association of Realtors" was thanked so many times by the leader of a foreign country, that it made people wonder why it isn't registered under the relevant transparency laws for such lobbying, then I'm sure people would be concerned about that too . . .

If the "National Association of Realtors" start carrying out unregistered lobbying for a foreign country whose former intelligence officers explain how labeling people antisemitic is standard tactic they've used because "that's one stain you cannot wash", then people may be concerned.

When the "National Association of Realtors" has even MAGA Republicans complaining about the fact that "everybody has an AIPAC person" perhaps people will be concerned about the role that organization has in politics too.

But if anyone says (or implies) that anyone who raises concerns about the role of AIPAC in US politics is "antisemitic" don't buy it.

Rabbi Weiss happens to be anti-Zionist
Some people will try to tell you he isn't a "real" Jew (despite his family being killed in Auschwitz for being Jewish) or that he is somehow "antisemitic".
Don't listen. Legitimate criticism is not "antisemitic".

Wait, I thought electing the "anarcho-capitalist" Javier Milei was going to fix the mess them "socialists" made of the economy. You mean that hasn't happened and Argentina needs a $40 billion bailout from the US. Who would've thought!

The idea that all criticism of the Israeli government or AIPAC's political influence is driven solely by antisemitism is as absurd as the idea that none of it is.
Some of those critics are themselves Jewish! Reality doesn't fit into nice neat narratives.

For those who say "yeah but what about Russian lobbying"
AIPAC is more powerful.
Even so, Paul Manafort, Rick Gates, Sam Patten were all charged with with lobbying for Russian interests without being registered as foreign agents.
So lobbyists for Israeli interests shouldn't get special treatment

fyi sources that show only FARA-registered lobbying defeat the purpose, because groups with hugely significant influence that advocate for foreign interests (such as AIPAC) are not registered under FARA.

It's not antisemitic to say:

Some people may claim military aid to Israel isn't really aid because the money is spent in the US.
Don't be fooled.
It's like saying food stamps are not welfare because they must be spent at US grocery stores.
No, wherever it's spent, Israel is still spending $38bn of taxpayer's money.
