And you’re part of it

While we have always tracked the entire Israel lobby, we have always based our red and green graphics on both the individual's donations *and* their legislative record (if available) and/or public statements/policy positions. We hear the critique that this part (funding + policy) is not as clear to people. And that's fair. So we are working on a new graphic design that will more clearly reflect both and address this concern.

Highlighting Mallory McMorrow and not Haley Stevens — who, using data from your own site, has more than 90x more donations from the “Pro-Israel lobby groups & their donors” than her, and actually has received from money from PACs, including AIPAC — is really telling on yourself.

In the first 17 days after Israel's attack on Iran (Feb 28–Mar 16), 170 separate incidents of settler violence against Palestinians in the West Bank were reported (an average of 10 incidents per day). The incidents took place in 85 Palestinian communities and included shootings, physical assaults, property damage, and threats. Six Palestinians were shot and killed by settlers in the West Bank during this period. At least three were shot by settlers in uniform. To the best of Yesh Din’s knowledge, none of the shooters has been arrested. Five more Palestinians were shot and killed by soldiers. *The data is based on cross-checking public reports and publications from various sources. These are figures that Maj. Gen. Avi Bluth (Commander of the Military Central Command) should be familiar with. The power to halt the rampant violence and its deadly consequences lies in his hands. However, instead of taking action, he opts to write letters whose only goal is to create positive headlines and conceal the fact that he is failing in his duty and abandoning Palestinians instead of protecting them from their attackers.

Cuba's dictatorial regime is far more responsible for the impoverishment of the Cuban people than America is.

We must lift the US oil blockade on Cuba. This is economic warfare designed to suffocate an island. Food is spoiling. Water supply is compromised. Healthcare services are disrupted. End the blockade now. Grateful to all those helping deliver humanitarian aid!

Angry Cuban man goes to the hotel where the Code Pink communists are staying in Cuba. They get to enjoy electricity thanks to a generator but 99.9% of Cubans are without electricity tonight after the nationwide blackout 🇨🇺
