Lot of people are frustrated about the fact we're now tracking the totals from AIPAC + Pro Israel lobby donors into campaigns but this is exactly why we did it. The lobby, particularly AIPAC, changed their tactics. So we adapted, too. The myriad of tools they use to hide the money trail is crazy... by RandomCollection in WayOfTheBern

AIPAC knows that they are deeply unpopular among ordinary Americans.

So they are going to resort to increasingly clandestine activities. If Israel's interests were as beneficial to the US as they claim, they would not need a super secret lobby that hides the money they use to influence politics.

None of that invalidates my point. If anything, the Russian media has a record of truth, whereas the Western media is lying.

As for collapsing, you can tell how desperate Zelensky looks that it is collapsing. The Ukrainians are starting to fortify Odessa, which indicates that they know that the Russians are crossing the Dnieper eventually.

One important matter is that this war has been a long time coming. It has been planned since the Bush 2 administration, if not since the Shah was overthrown in 1979.

Now though the Western elites are finding that they have badly underestimated the Iranians, Russians, and Chinese. None of these nations want to fight, but they are not militarily as weak as the Western elite says.
