AIPAC Is a destructive lobby group with a disproportionate amount of power and influence. I think well of Omar too, and what she said NOT antisemitic. It was honest. I wish she'd been rewarded for that honesty rather than castigated.
Her apology pointed at an important direction: lobbies, in general, are problematic. There is danger in singling out Jewish control over our politics because unfortunately many people hear Jew when they hear AIPAC.
It’s fine to criticize AIPAC, but in context, and with acknowledgment that antisemetic tropes around Jewish control (of banks, of media, of government) has been used to devastating effects.
So she has to add an extra disclaimer in this case of making a factual statement about a pro-Israel lobby because some people may infer she is repeating stereotypes about Jews?
