A popular liberal group is calling on Democratic presidential candidates to skip this year’s AIPAC conference, citing its links to the right-wing government of Benjamin Netanyahu and alleged Islamophobia
The liberal group MoveOn is calling on Democratic presidential candidates to skip this year’s AIPAC policy conference, citing its links to the right-wing government of Benjamin Netanyahu and charging that AIPAC has flirted with Islamophobia.
But it sets a new marker for Democratic 2020 hopefuls, underscoring that liberal activists are prepared to make support for the government of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, an ally of President Donald Trump, a major issue in the primary race.Sign Up AIPAC is bipartisan lobbying group which says its mission is “to strengthen, protect and promote the U.S.-Israel relationship in ways that enhance the security of the United States and Israel.” It has close ties with numerous senior lawmakers. The group’s annual conference typically attracts high-ranking U.S. members of Congress and administration officials, including presidents.
