The only "points" that mean anything are facts. The major fact here is the humongous list of US Jewish political organizations in the link I gave you that are funded to the levels of billions of dollars by the US Jewish community and Israel. It's the leaders of these organizations that make up the US Jewish Lobby. Interestingly, you avoid even mentioning or discussing this major fact. Why?
But I can't really criticize you for that. I don't know who you are or what capacity you have for analysis and rational thought. Without knowing that, I cannot pass judgement on you. I can only conclude that for some reason you don't acknowledge the significance of important and relevant facts and incorporate them in a fact-based rational discussion. I thus ask you, what benefit is there in me continuing a discussion with someone who acts in such a way?
>>"that are funded to the levels of billions of dollars by the US Jewish community and Israel."
(1) Do you understand how Global Capitalism works?
(2) Do you follow (or are aware of) the flows of capital between US corporations and Israeli corporations?
(3) Are you privy to (or have knowledge of) the geopolitical arrangements between the US and Israeli Governments?
(4) Are you aware of $350 billion USD given to Israel by the US over the last 75 years? (and this is the official count)
(5) Do you know/understand how shadow banks and the shadow banking system works?
(6) Do you understand how global investments are structured and diversified? (for example: hedge funds, pension funds, mutual funds, etc. investing in Israeli corporate entities)?
(7) Are you aware of unstructured finance deals and quid-pro-quo arrangements (in trade and other areas) between the US and Israel?
(8) Do you know that most of Israeli Govt. assets are held overseas in various institutions?
(9) Are you aware of the "foreign reserve assets" of Israel? (and the fact that official US payments to Israel pale in comparison to those assets)?
(10) I could go on, but I'll stop here.
I'll ignore your ad hominem assumptions about me, and state the following: do you understand how magicians perform their tricks? They distract you with "facts" (illusions) while they perform their tricks. Similarly, you don't seem to get that:
(a) The official funding on your article ("facts") are a "drop in the bucket" compared to the REAL flows of Capital between the 2 countries
(b) the way global capitalism works and the flows of capital
Without understanding global capitalism, you will be mesmerized and misled by the "facts" (official funding). Capital and capitalism trumps religions. Do you think all this money is being spent on Israel because of something to do with "Jews" or "Jewishness" or "Judaism"? Some of it for sure, but these Capitalists are NOT STUPID.
Your sources of "Jewish" funding is but a drop in the bucket for Israel. But you won't be able to comprehend that unless you understand a bit of the inner workings of global capitalism.
Like I said before (and on multiple occasions), the MAIN REASON the US supports Israel is because it is "in the interest" of the US Empire (not the common American people but the Empire Managers, power elite, etc.) - NOT because of Jewish billionaires or Judaism or Zionism (those are secondary and tertiary reasons).
When it comes to Empires and Oligarchs, think MONEY (not ideology).
You said: "You seem to miss the point."
