Caught between their principles and their...rabbis? Are the rabbis being mean to the Squad? Did AOC switch her vote because she was afraid she'd get in trouble and miss Shabbos Party? She was supposed to be the ima this week!
Amazing stuff
NYT weird "blame the beardlings" for AOC crying aside, the whole premise is off anyway. AOC isn't afraid of "lobbyists" or "rabbis," it's that she realizes it's unpopular among NY *voters* that she opposes saving the lives of Jewish children from terrorist bombs. Poor AOC!
AOC's enemy is Big Voter. She wants to oust the highest-ranking Jewish lawmaker in a state with lots of Jewish voters and dropping bombs on preschool kids is unpopular among our community, hence her dilemma. She worries she has to choose between more power and child sacrifice.
There really aren't "influential pro-Israel" figures in the Democratic Party aside from *Democratic voters.* AIPAC is long over. ADL on its hands and knees. Halie Soifer's group is out to protect the Squad at all costs. The RAC doesn't care. Etc.
The harsh reality for the antisemites in the West today is that the leaderless Jews will not dig their own graves.
Hand us a shovel and see what we do with it.
