    The only reason AIPAC isn’t labeled a foreign agent due to it’s ties to the Israeli government, is the majority of people who decides who registered takes AIPAC money.

    It’s been brought up for over 50 years, but no action has been taken.

    Even the FBI investigating them and finding members smuggled classified Intel to the Israeli government wasn’t enough.

    Instead AIPAC offered to pay all legal fees and we dropped the case.

    I don’t see it any different than taking Russian or Saudi money at this point.
