But enacts corporate policy.
A manager of a Kroger in a metro area is pulling above 6 figures after their quarterly bonuses are added in.
The guy who thinks it is un-American for minorities to have political action committees thinks my beliefs are twisted?
I'm happy about that. Because I think your belief on the subject is un-American, and honestly, weird.
I never said being Jewish was a requirement. But it's a political action committee representing the interests of Jewish-Americans.
And by the application of US law, and AIPAC's observing of US law, it is an American organization. You can disagree, but you are literally arguing against US law here, not me or my opinion. It is your opinion that is not reflected by reality here. Which you are American as well, you are allowed to hold these opinions and in many ways I would agree the law is wrong here, but facts are facts, and they say you are wrong.
Given the context that you are responding to a previous conversation, arguing with me doesn't really make sense unless you were defending the other position.
So if you aren't defending them, what is it that you are trying to do?
100% of their funding is what the person you are defending said.
AiPAC is American through, as are its members... who are Jewish.
We gotta be careful when we start saying politically organized minorities who hold citizenship aren't American enough. It doesn't sound good, and maybe you aren't intending that, but that is how it comes off.
The person you are defending doesn't believe the 3 million members of AIPAC are donors. They stated that Israel is funding the entire operation.
When I told them that was not the case, they stated I was brainwashed into holding antisemitic beliefs by AIPAC, and therefore by Israel.
Quick question, my maggot friend: why are you defending somebody if you don't even understand what it is they said?
The laws of the US state that money is speech and Americans are allowed to use their speech to support political causes.
But if the argument is that 3 million American Jews aren't American enough, I am going to hold your feet to the fire on that.
I understand the confusion now.
If you scroll up you will see the other person referred to AIPAC as the Israeli government and claimed they were funding the whole operation.
I pointed out that what they were saying was incorrect. It appears you and i are in agreement here and your comment was meant for the person you thought you were defending.
I would also point out that the 3 million members of AIPAC are not donating to Israel, they are donating to AIPAC.
Unless a lobby group has been sanctioned, all Americans can donate to whatever PAC they see fit. That's called the first amendment.
