Sure, defer until genocide is out of the news or it becomes completely untenable to support Israel

"AIPAC’s influence has become a flashpoint inside the Democratic Party, as leaders struggle to respond to rapidly shifting views about Israel among progressives, especially in the wake of the war in Gaza and amid the current U.S.-Israeli war with Iran."

Just say you're against genocide from any country. Fucking Democrat leadership this isn't that hard.

Yes, Israel is going to say it's not genocide and Trump is going to say he doesn't have dementia. You don't have to agree with either of them.

AIPAC gives them millions every year, that's a lot of money they don't want to miss out on. They don't give a shit about the genocide, beyond what it's doing to the votes they need to keep receiving that money.

Some things never change

Earlier in Thursday’s meeting in New Orleans, committee members approved a broader measure condemning the influence of dark money in the midterms without naming specific groups. They then rejected a separate resolution that singled out AIPAC.

Who’s in your primary?
