AIPAC denies link to group that ran anti-Sanders ads

Pathetic! AIPAC is cowering again. If the folks at AIPAC had even an ounce of courage, they would be publicly (and proudly) leading the charge against the anti-Israel bigot Bernie Sanders. They would also be exposing the dozens of Jew-haters that Sanders has brought into his campaign. What a stark contrast from the way Britain’s Jews courageously attacked Jeremy Corbyn. A strong pro-Israel Jewish organization in the United States is urgently needed. An organization that knows how to fight a war. An organization that has some pride.

AIPAC is not and has not been involved in the ad campaigns of any political action committee. The accusation that AIPAC is providing benefits to members for donating to fund these political ads or this political action committee is completely false and has no basis in fact. https://t.co/NyiGTGRLkM

AIPAC denies link to group that ran anti-Sanders ads

The American Israel Public Affairs Committee distances itself from a political action committee that has run ads against Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders.

By World News, February 16, 2020:

The American Israel Public Affairs Committee is distancing itself from a political action committee that has run ads against Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders.

The political action arm of Democratic Majority for Israel, formed last year to bolster the party’s support for Israel, ran a six-figure ad campaign in Iowa last month that questioned Sanders’ health and his ability to defeat President Donald Trump in November.

Those ads prompted pushback from Sanders’ campaign, and a Friday report from the left wing website The Intercept asserted that the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) was helping Democratic Majority for Israel by allowing its donors to get AIPAC benefits from contributing to the group.

AIPAC spokesman Marshall Wittmann denied any such arrangement, saying by email that the organization “is not and has not been involved in the ad campaigns of any political action committee. The accusation that AIPAC is providing benefits to members for donating to fund these political ads or this political action committee is completely false and has no basis in fact.”

Rachel Rosen, spokeswoman for Democratic Majority for Israel, said the group is “completely independent” from “any other organization.”

AIPAC, founded more than six decades ago to support strong U.S.-Israel ties, opposed former President Barack Obama’s nuclear agreement with Iran, among other positions, due to the imminent threat Iran poses to Israel and its pursuit of nuclear weapons, financial support for terror groups, and its campaign to destabilize the region.

An alliance of liberal advocacy groups is leading an effort to push 2020 Democratic presidential to boycott AIPAC’s annual policy conference next month after mounting a similar effort last year.

OKAY, what is wrong with questioning Sanders’ health and his ability to defeat President Donald Trump in November???????????????? SANDERS and all other DEMS will never be able to defeat Trump. I DOUBT AIPAC IS COWERING TO ANYTHING.

PATHETIC? REALLY? Maybe it’s true? Maybe they do NOT have a link, as you claim. CAN YOU PROVE OTHERWISE, MS. GELLER or are you just ‘ASSUMING’?

I WILL CONTRIBUTE TO AIPAC IF THEY CONTINUE RAISING MONEY IN SUPPORT OF STRONG TIES WITH AMERICA.

Hey ‘Geller Report Staff’: maybe you should be questioning the proof your staff has of this allegation instead of assuming something without proof. We all saw that crap with the Trump impeachment.

I AM GETTING A BIT DISAPPOINTED IN THIS WEB SITE, MS. GELLER. Please tell us you are not approving of this SLOP, Ms. Geller?

FISH ROTS FROM THE HEAD.
SANDERS IS THE MOST DESPICABLE ANTISEMITIC COMMUNIST IN THE LEFT AQUARIUM.
HOWEVER – HE ALREADY IS SMELLING BAD.
AIPAC MAY BE ONE OF THE WATER SUPPLIERS…

I wonder how much Bloomberg will pay for Sanders’ delegates?
