More likely that Israel is the USA's longest and most reliable foothold into the Middle East which is an important ground to repel eastern expansionism from Russia and China in an infinite proxy war. Nobody with half a brain would chose to lose voters for a paltry sum of campaign funds which may or may not attract comparably few voters, the math just doesn't pan out.
You clearly have no idea what you're talking about.
AIPAC was one of the largest outside donors in the 2024 elections, spending $100 million in 389 congressional races (26 in the Senate, 363 in the House). 318 Zionist candidates who received money from AIPAC were elected that year.
The Harris Campaign spent $1,176,074,620.47
The total spending on all campaigns in 2024 was over 21 Billion Dollars.
How many votes do you think $100M in advertisements is going to earn? That's hardly enough money to put an ad in the face of 1 of 3 people in the USA one time.
Apparently 318 seats worth.
Yeah it can't be the military-industrial complex, oil and shipping companies, it has to be the scary Russians.
It can be multiple things but let's not compare filthy Republicans like Bush and Rex Tillerson the Tex Driller-man to the DNC, that would just be disingenuous to its core.
Also, you say "the scary Russians" like they haven't been actively invading and claiming more land for 10 years, now.
