Israel has enormous leverage over the US administration, through the AIPAC, a money laundering operation disguised as political lobbying, ensuring a steady flow of money from the US treasury to Israel govt. and right back to the Congress.

From AIPAC themselves: (https://www.aipacpac.org/)

> Being pro-Israel is good policy and good politics.

> %98 of AIPAC-backed candidates won their general elections.

> $70M contributed through AIPAC to support pro-Israel candidates.

> We helped defeat 24 candidates who would have undermined the US-Israel relationship.

Democracy anybody?

Now imagine Russia had a similar organization, what would the reaction be? Yet when it's Israel, it's somehow fine.

From Wikipedia: (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AIPAC)

> AIPAC was founded in 1954 by Isaiah L. Kenen, a lobbyist for the Israeli government, partly to counter negative international reactions to Israel's Qibya massacre of Palestinian villagers that year.
