Yes. Susan T. Human nature being what it is. Better put, how it has now become.

Too many years have these conditions been in force for 460 AIPAC sponsored members in the USA, knowing their future in political circles depended on the monitoring (and approval) of their statements by the AIPAC bunch of 'non-American foreign operatives', neocons, fellow-travellers, all part of the non-American mix which enables them all to maintain their grip on power and a very acceptable standard of living as a USA-style respected politician. Wow! What other country has such a great system.

I mean to say...'I'll just say how much I support those Israeli genocidists and my salary and conditions will continue. I mean 'who gives a damn in my electorate what I say. I'm popular, surrounded in the House and Congress by other graftees and we all know the signs of success.......continued employment and approval by our party leaders. I mean we are told that this is the current climate , and as our leaders keep saying when we meet, it will continue on for some time yet, so let's keep up the charade.

A great life being a sponsored -by-Israel member of government in this corrupted miitaristic country, far, far away from any war. And the election......? Just another necessary temporary hurdle, (who wins...who cares), but whatever the result, it's back to the good life in January.

Hope it continues. Yes ,perhaps it is is sad about Palestinians and their thousands of deaths. But then again, , all that stuff is a long way away. Not my concern.

I don't see greed as necessarily a part of human nature. People learn to be greedy.

Yes. Thank you for your comments.

The Israeli tail has been wagging the US pitbull dog, the British bulldog, and the German rottweiler since the 1920s, determining the US, UK, and Germany's policies in regard to Israel's genocidal policies from the very beginning of the Zionist settler colonialist project.

But the Zionist project is now coming to an end according to professor Ilan Pape, prominent Israeli historian and chronicler of Israel's distortions and lies about the establishment of the Israeli state and its genocidal policies.
