John, just when
we thought the Democratic establishment finally found the spine to call a
genocide a genocide... they backtracked.

First, Rep. Katherine Clark — Democrats’ second-in-command in House
leadership — admitted that Israel is committing genocide against
Palestinians in Gaza.

Democrat in the House of Representatives behind Hakeem Jeffries, just
admitted Israel is committing “genocide” in Gaza.

Then, just three days later, Clark walked back her comments.

‘genocide.’ “I want to be clear that I am not accusing Israel of
genocide,” House Minority Whip Katherine Clark told JNS. Jonathan D.
Salant.

This is pathetic, John, but it’s
not surprising. We can guess that someone from AIPAC complained about
this. Clark herself has received almost $703,000 from the Israel lobby
throughout her political career.

If AIPAC can demand Democratic leadership retract their words and
whitewash a genocide — they have too much power in the Democratic Party.

Their organization is funded primarily by pro-Trump far-right
billionaires, and they’re the biggest source of Republican money flowing
into Democratic primaries – using GOP megadonor cash to defeat progressive
members of Congress like former Justice Democrats Cori Bush and Jamaal
Bowman, and now targeting leaders like Summer Lee and Ilhan Omar.

Far too many Democrats are either silent on this issue or openly defend
genocide because they are in the pockets of AIPAC. If we want a Democratic
Party that actually stands up for human rights and opposes genocide, we
need them to stop taking checks from this corrupt lobby group ASAP.

[ [link removed] ]Bernie Sanders was right when he said, “NO Democrat should accept money
from AIPAC.” Add your name now to demand your representatives choose
American values over right-wing billionaire influence by rejecting AIPAC
money.

Add Your Name

In solidarity,

Justice Democrats
