US Department of Justice Asked to Regulate AIPAC as a Foreign Agent of the Israeli Government


www.foxbusiness.com
The US Department of Justice has been formally asked to begin regulating the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) as the foreign agent of the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs. A 392 page legal filing presented by a four person IRmep delegation in a two hour meeting with top officials of the Internal Security Section substantiated the following case for AIPAC's immediate registration:

This from origin of piece:

AIPAC is a spinoff of an organization already ordered by the DOJ to register as an Israeli foreign agent. In November of 1962 the American Zionist Council was ordered by the Attorney General to begin filing disclosures as an Israeli foreign agent under the 1938 Foreign Agents Registration Act. www.IRmep.org... Six weeks later, former AZC employees incorporated the American Israel Public Affairs Committee in Washington, DC, taking over the AZC's lobbying activities. www.IRmep.org... AIPAC did not register as a foreign agent.

Not too long ago I read another lay-out of the case with extensive quotes from the 1938 Foreign Agents Registration Act. To any rational mind familiar with the law it would be open and shut. AIPAC is a foreign agent. Building, personnel, computers all shared with the registered agency.

The question is: Does rational legal reasoning prevail in the US or does political financial and PR clout?

Funny, most of the American donations from Christian groups in support of Zionism goes right through AIPAC for illegal settlement construction. Official US policy against illegal construction VS unofficial shadow controllers of US politicians, who will prevail? Bets any one?

Verint Systems is a Iraeli company that supplies the US with all its security equipment for Home Land Security and in the clause of the contracts Israelis run the equipment due to infrigment on the software and hardware. So they run the world of airport security in over a 150 countries including the US.

I'm so uneducated when it comes to Israel and US relations.
First; I thought it was Britain that helped the Israelis form a government in the holy land back after WW11.

The first history I actually heard wasn't until 2002 on a National Public Radio series, The Mideast: A Century of Conflict A Seven-Part Series Traces the Israeli-Palestinian Dispute
www.npr.org...
Until then I'd never heard of Theodor Herzl, First Zionist Congress, Der Judenstaat, The Balfour Declaration, the 1922 British Mandate, The November 1947 U.N. proposed partitioning. It's a bit informative to read the actual documents, available here: avalon.law.yale.edu...
The 1922 British Mandate provided "in favor of the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, it being clearly understood that nothing should be done which might prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine". In other words, 'the indigenous' 92% just live in British controlled Territory while the British Crown helps establish a semiautonomous 'nation' for Jews to immigrate into from all over the world.

No established borders. In essence an apartheid state. Citizenship for Jews, paternalistic 'protection' of the 'natives' fairly standard British Empire type colonialism. After 1948, US took it over. Not exactly. Independent "Jewish state" controls everything including paternalism toward non-Jews, US backs it financially, and protects it from international criticism for what seems to some as crimes against humanity.

Why is the US playing as the appeasers to the Israelis, why don't the US put it's foot down when Israel misbehaves? Or better, why is the US and Israel so "tight?" I don't get it. Why does Israel get so much help from the US? And, why doesn't Israel even get a slap on the hand when it has been caught with it's hand in the cookie jar? Such as not obeying regulations as put forth in the OP's thread? Or better, having obtained WMDs without signing the NNP Treaty?

The basic answer of why is Religion especially American Dispensationalism, steadily increasing in US political power since 1930s. 'help Israel=god's blessing, oppose Israeli =god's curse.' Simple as that. Fear of a god of questionable moral standards. Seems a bit UnAmerican to me.

Why the hell not! They are part of the foul cabal that is running the rest of the damned world. How long until they burn through all of the good will they believe they have? I think they might just come up short when it really counts.

Why even call AIPAC, AIPAC. I know many jewish folks and they are usually bluntly straight forward.

I motion to simply call AIPAC a division of Mossad. Which is bluntly straight forward.

No mystery here.

You're welcome. It's about where I started. You should read source materials without relying completely on some one else's interpretation.
