I don't know or care if Mossad has anything to do with their positions, that wasn't my point. My point was that Israel doesn't even need to blackmail or bribe politicians when they already have some allegiance to Israel (ie. being Jewish).

I mean, if there was an ethnostate for my people, and I happened to be in an influential position in a foreign superpower, you'd better believe I'm taking every opportunity to fleece the foreigners to send resources to my family, friends, and people back home. I don't know how you could live with yourself if you didn't do this.

Jewish politicians in the US certainly seem to see it this way in any matter regarding Israel or the Jewish people.

It's important to note that there are very many Jews in the world who are not Zionist and many Jews in Israel who disagree with the Palestinian genocide.

They're not the majority, but there are still a lot of them.

They are a lot but they're a small minority overall.
