It's completely appropriate when AIPAC is spending millions of dollars to influence elections. I don't understand why you are being so dismissive of brazen interference by a foreign entity. The US is both a perpetrator and a victim. Is the wound self inflicted? Absolutely, but that doesn't make it not interference.

    THE US GAVE THAT MONEY TO AIPAC IN THE FIRST PLACE. AIPAC spending money is not foreign influence, it's domestic influence. Israel is a domestic policy issue, not a foreign policy one. Israel is far closer to the status of Puerto Rico vis-a-vis the USA than it is to say France or Australia. It's literally a vassal and a proxy without any possibility of existing independently of the USA. It's a subdivision of US interests, not outside of US interests
