Sadly AIPAC owns our politics... money talks...

AIPAC is only part of the reason, the biggest is that Israel serves as a military foothold in the Middle East for the American Empire.

Touche, but how about not being in the middle east at all? That would be a nice concept...

Would be nice, why would the US pull out? It benefits them to stay.

Military industrial complex sure likes conflicts...
