Tom Friedman again condemns AIPAC with observations that were, just a short time ago, taboo and which provoked immediate accusation of anti-semitism:

"Add on top of that, the increasing role of money in U.S. politics and the importance of single donors who can write megachecks to 'super PACs' — and the fact that the main Israel lobby, Aipac, has made itself the feared arbiter of which lawmakers are 'pro' and which are 'anti-Israel' and, therefore, who should get donations and who should not — and you have a situation in which there are almost no brakes, no red lights, around Israel coming from America anymore.

"No wonder settlers now boast on op-ed pages that the game is over, they’ve won, the West Bank will remain with Israel forever — and they don’t care what absorbing all of its Palestinians will mean for Israel’s future as a Jewish democracy."
