ㅤ: The Jewish Lobby

'It's not like a bunch of people meet in a smokey room somewhere...'

''muh, Qatar lobby'' - When contending with criticism of Zionist influence, the establishment's go-to move is to point to Qatari donations to elite American universities or Saudi oil money flows into patronage networks connected to the Trump family. First of all, Saudi and Qatar are Israel's bitches, so anyone making that argument is shooting themselves in the foot. The difference with Israel is that anyone else acting on behalf of another country has to register as a foreign agent, while the Israel lobby camouflages its billions in expenditures as domestic political activity—the last two people who tried to stop this when it first started happening were JFK and RFK...

Israel is the only country on Earth whose lobbyists aren't required to register as foreign agents. They claim to be Jewish lobbies, despite the fact that groups like AIPAC literally have 'Israel' in their name.

Coordination

Jewish Agency - The Palestine office was established in 1908 as the operational wing of the World Zionist Organization in Ottoman Palestine. It was later designated as the Jewish Agency for Palestine, provided for by the League of Nations per Britain's promise of a Jewish state. Future PM David Ben-Gurion was selected as its chairman.

One of the JA's chairmen was the richest man in Israel, Eitan Wertheimer, who sent the dancing Israelis to New York, according to Paul Kerzberg, who is one of the dancing Israelis.

World Jewish Congress - Gave the Theodore Herzl Award to Jacob Rothschild in 2018.

Conference of the Presidents of Major Jewish Organizations - They take the leaders of Israeli affinity groups and have conferences where they set policy.

Heritage Foundation - Project Esther is a policy initiative launched in 2024 by the Heritage Foundation, designed as a "National Strategy to Combat Antisemitism". It is largely recognized as a strategic blueprint intended to dismantle the pro-Palestinian movement in the US by re-branding it as a "Hamas Support Network".

AJC (American Jewish Committee)

UJA (United Jewish Appeal)

Zionist Organization of America - Spawned AIPAC in 1954.

Lobby Groups

Ryan Dawson: ''These lobby groups finance politicians, media outlets and universities to be favorable to Jewish interests. You can't give millions to politicians, but you can divide it up to a bunch of people who donate it on your behalf. It's called bundling and it's illegal but they do it anyway.''

This was heavily exposed by a series called The Lobby by Al Jazeera, which was pulled and later leaked online. The version on the lobby in the UK is still up, but the 8 part addition focusing on America is still only available as an archive.

AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee) - Robert Kennedy supported an investigation aimed at registering the American Zionist Council (AZC) under the Foreign Agents Registration act, which would have hindered its efficiency significantly, given that in 1963 the AZC was revealed by the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations to have laundered $5M into lobbying activities. To get around this, AZC moved its major functions to a former unit of theirs, the Kenen Committee, later renamed AIPAC, which is now the largest lobby group in America, despite the fact that it's technically illegal. The World Zionist Organization and the American Zionist Council avoided FARA seven times with excuses and requests for extensions. After RFK's death, allegedly at the hands of a Palestinian, the case was buried by Nicholas Katzenbach, the new head of the Department of Justice.

In Illinois alone in 2024, AIPAC funneled its money through other PACs with names like Elect Chicago Women, United Democracy Project, and Affordable Chicago Now to conceal the true source of the funds. AIPAC lawyers have also strategically refrained from filing legally required donor disclosure forms for these pass-through PACs; AIPAC uses this loophole to anonymously funnel millions of dollars to their chosen candidates. Whereas historically, AIPAC relied on mobilizing donors to spend on campaigns, AIPAC now does so directly through their AIPAC-PAC and their super PAC, the United Democracy Project.

These funds were documented by the Federal Election Commission in 2024: "Of the 469 seats up for reelection this year, AIPAC has spent money on more than 80%. 389 races in total. AIPAC has sought influence over 363 seats in the House and 26 in the Senate."

AIPAC suffered a scandal in 1992, when Heim Katz, a prospective donor, taped a phone-call with an unwitting David Steiner, AIPAC's president at the time: ''I have friends on the Clinton campaign, close associates. Gore is very committed to us. I've known Bill for seven, eight years. I know him on a personal basis. I have friends. One of my friends is Hillary Clinton's scheduler. One of my officers' daughters works there. We gave two employees from AIPAC leave of absences to work on the campaign. I mean we have a dozen people in that campaign in the headquarters... I met with US Secretary of State, Jim Baker and I cut a deal with him. Besides the $10B due in loan guarantees, which was a fabulous thing, $3B in foreign in military aid, and I got almost a billion dollars in other goodies that people don't even know about.''

Steiner wasn't lying. Martin Indyk, co-founder of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy and former deputy director of research at AIPAC, earned a seat at Clinton's National Security Council and went on to become the US ambassador to Israel and assistant Secretary of State. WNEP's other co-founder, Dennis Ross also served prominently as Clinton's special envoy to the Middle East; these were Clinton's advisers for the 2000 Camp David Summit.

Former AIPAC president, Howard Khor in 2006: ''AIPAC meets with every candidate running for Congress. These candidates receive in-depth briefings to help them completely understand the complexities of Israel's predicament and of the Middle East as a whole. We even ask each candidate to author a position paper on their views of the US Israel relationship, so it's clear where they stand on the subject.''

In 1990, Democrat, Harry Lonsdale challenged the Republican senator from Oregon Mark Hatfield: ''The word that I was pro-Israel got around.'' He described a visit to AIPAC's headquarters during his campaign. ''It was an experience I will never forget. It wasn't enough that I was pro-Israel. I was given a list of vital topics and quizzed. Read Grilled for my specific opinion on each. Actually I was told what my opinion must be and exactly what words I was to use to express those opinions in public. Shortly after the encounter at AIPAC, I was sent a list of American supporters of Israel that I was free to call for campaign contributions. I called; they gave, from Florida to Alaska.''

Kentucky Rep Tomas Massie to Tucker Carlson: ''Well, I have Republicans who come to me on the floor and say, 'I wish I could vote with you today. Yours is the right vote, but I would just take too much flak back home.' And I have Republicans who come to me and say, 'That's wrong, what AIPAC is doing to you. Let me talk to my AIPAC person.' By the way, everybody but me has an AIPAC person... It's like your babysitter, your AIPAC babysitter, who is always talking to you for AIPAC... And when they come to DC, you go have lunch with them and they've got your cell number and you have conversations with them... I've had four members of Congress say, 'I'll talk to my AIPAC person.' And that's literally what we call them, 'my AIPAC guy.' 'I'll talk to my AIPAC guy and see if I can get them to', you know, 'dial those ads back.' ...Have you seen any other country do anything like this? Like Russia?''

Former Secretary of State Lawrence Eagleburger once told AIPAC's Tom Dine: ''Dine, I deal with you because you could hurt me.''

South Carolina Democratic senator, Ernest Hollings said, as he left office in 2004: ''You can't have an Israeli policy other than what AIPAC gives you around here.''

Former weapons inspector, Scott Ritter noticed, after doing a segment that news personnel and producers had AIPAC cards which they would present to each other.

At AIPAC receptions and political fundraisers, politicians have worn name badges featuring QR codes that attendees or donors could scan with their smartphones to make on-the-spot campaign contributions

AIPAC PAC - Makes donations to congressmen on behalf of AIPAC.

UDP (United Democracy Project) - Super-PAC of AIPAC. 70% of UDP is spent on media. WhatsApp founder Jan Koum gave them 5M$.

Despite being its poster child, AIPAC only accounts for about 1% of the Israel Lobby. AIPAC is an umbrella organization which has a series of super-PACs which donate money on their behalf.

B'nai B'rith - Secret society modeled on Freemasonry set up in 1843 as a fraternal order to protect Jewish ethnic interests in the US by engaging in political lobbying and providing networking opportunities for new Jewish immigrants. The president of the Georgia chapter of the B'nai B'rith was Leo Frank. B'nai B'rith set up the ADL to defend him after he raped and killed a 13-year-old girl working at his pencil factory.

Hillel - Embedded in college campuses; named after Hillel Silver, who was part of the Sonneborn Institute, the gun-running ring which later stole highly-enriched uranium from the US for Israel.

Mercaz USA - Evangelical Christians.

ORT America - They sensor and manipulate school text books.

Doners

The Adelsons - Highest political donors in the US; Sheldon Adelson paid to fly Israeli spy and American traitor, Jonathan Pollard to Israel they lobbied for his release.

Miriam Adelson gave AIPAC more than $5M, and was awarded the Medal of Freedom by Trump.

The pro Newt Gingrich super PAC, Winning Our Future, was backed almost entirely by the Adelsons and was central to the former House Speaker's surge in the South Carolina primary.

Trump privately courted the Adelsons, seeking a meeting and asking for financial support, even as he publicly declared that he did not need or want backing from major donors. In March 2016, Trump gave a speech at that year's policy conference for the American Israel Public Affairs Committee where he promised to move the US Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. After that, the Adelsons donated $20M to a political action committee supporting Trump's campaign and another $1.5M to the committee that organized the Republican convention. After Trump's election, Adeldon donated $5M to his inauguration ceremony, the most anyone had ever donated for the event. According to Trump in his October 2025 speech to the Israeli Knesset: ''Miriam gave my campaign indirectly and directly $250M.''

Sheldon Adelson: "I am not Israeli. The uniform that I wore in the military, unfortunately, wasn't an Israeli uniform. It was an American uniform. Hopefully, my son will come back and be a sniper for the IDF. All we care about is being good Zionists, being good citizens of Israel, because even though I'm not Israeli born, Israel is in my heart.''

Bill Ackman - Hedge fund Manager of Pershing Square, who dropped their assets from $20B to $8.2B in just three years; in 2020, he made the greatest trade of all time with 100 times return by betting against corporate credit on lock-downs, which he then encouraged in media, under the guise of health, by coordinating 50 state lock-downs, which turned his $27M bet into $2.2B.

He went on a witch hunt to take down Harvard president Claudine Gaye by exposing her plagiarism. The twist was that Bill Ackman's wife, Neri Oxman, who was in the IDF, was a professor at MIT, despite being guilty of plagiarism herself.

In 2017, she excepted money from Epstein as a donation for her lab, even though emails show she knew Epstein was weird. She even forced her students to sign a thank you gift for Epstein, even though many of them brought up the fact that they weren't comfortable with it because, even back then, they knew he was a pedophile.

Wexner Foundation - Les Wexner, Epstein's boss, created the Wexner Foundation. The first president of the Wexner Heritage Program was Rabbi Herbert Freedman, who came from the UJA, which came out of the Sonneborn Institute, which trafficked weapons to Haganah and eventually highly enriched uranium to Israel. Wexner's mentor was Max Fisher, affiliated with the Jewish organized crime group known as the Purple Gang, and a member of the Sonneborn Institute. Wexner put Epstein on the board of trustees of the Wexner Foundation; and on the board of Reporty, (now Carbyne) something Epstein invested in on behalf of former Israeli PM Ehud Barak. Barak received $2.5M from the Wexner Foundation and 204K for research which has never been fully explained.

The Mega Donors - Les Wexner started the Mega Group, a clique of Jewish billionaires such as Charles Bronfman, Michael Steinhardt, Spielberg and Edgar Bronfman... The purpose of the clique was to influence policy on behalf of Israel.

Michael Steinhardt has been accused of sexual harassment by seven different women.

Charles Bronfman was the chairman of United Jewish Communities, which incorporated the Council of Jewish Federations and United Israel Appeal.

Edgar Bronfman Sr. was the president of the World Jewish Congress and ran liquor giant, Seagram. Edgar's daughters, Sarah and Clare Bronfman gave millions to Keith Raniere's NXIVM cult, which literally branded women as sex slaves with a hot iron. Mega doner, Ronald Lauder became President of the World Jewish Congress and has been a large donor to Netanyahu's Likud party.

The big stein - Epstein donated to various Jewish groups through his C.O.U.Q Foundation: $25K to Friends of Israel Defense Forces; $15K to Jewish National Fund; $50K to Hillel Foundation; $5K to National Council of Jewish Women.

Sonneborn Institute - On July 1 1945, future PM, David Ben-Gurion asked a small gathering of American-Jewish activists at Millionaire oil executive, Rudolf Sonneborn's apartment to send supplies to the Jewish community and its military force, Haganah. The group became a secretive, nationwide organization led by Sonnenborn, known as the Sonneborn Institute, which covered as a charity for Holocaust survivors.

United Israel Appeal took tax dollars from the state department's Refugee & Assistant account for resettling Jews to Israel, and gave the money to the Ben-Gurion's Jewish Agency.

Those present at the meeting were: Henry Montor, (director of United Jewish Appeal) Abba Hillel Silver, (chairman of the US section of the Jewish Agency) Teddy Kollek, (executive secretary of the Jewish Agency and future mayor of Jerusalem) Yehuda Arazi, (Haganah's chief arms producer and purchaser) Leonard Weisman, (Jewish businessman who set up front companies for transportation, including Minirals Redistrebution co., Paragon Design and Development corp, and the Prat Steam Ship Line) Nahum Bernstein, (set up the Foundry Associated Corporation, which only existed on paper) Sam Sloan, (a scrap metal deal networker who had scrapyards across the nation) Eli Schalit, (removed arms form NY to Palestine) Sam Zemmury (had contacts in Latin America, and was the largest shareholder of United Fruit) and Reuven Dafni (Haganah's liason to organized crime in the US).

They later ended up smuggling highly enriched uranium to Israel for their nuclear program.

The Bronfmans - Samuel Bronfman got rich during the prohibition era, selling alcohol as medicine with the help of gangster, (((Moe Dalitz))).

From there, his sons Charles and Edger Bronfman Sr. founded liquor giant Seagram; then started buying up pre-existing businesses which were already successful. The Bronfmans financed Senator John McCain, Kemper Marley of United Liquor and John McCain'e father in law, Jim Hensley.

Charles Bronfman was the chairman of United Jewish Communities, which incorporated United Jewish Appeal, the Council of Jewish Federations and United Israel Appeal. Charles Bronfman sold a house to (((Robert Miller))), the richest man in Quebec, later exposed as a pedophile.

Charles founded Birth-rite Israel, the purpose of which is to prevent intermarriage between Jews and gentiles.

Edgar Bronfman Sr. and Jr. are both Epstein clients. Edgar Bronfman Sr. was president of the World Jewish Congress; the Bronfmans in general were and are part of the Zionist mega donors, headed by Epstein's boss and Victoria secret owner, Les Wexner.

Edgar Bronfman Sr.'s daughter's (((Sarah and Clare Bronfman))), gave millions to Keith Renier's NXIVM cult, which literally branded women as sex slaves with a hot poker. Clare received 81 months in prison, Sarah got off entirely. The US government is illegitimate.

Mark Rowan - Co-founded Apollo Global Management with Leon Black, one of the world's largest private equity firms; donated a million dollars to Trump's 2020 campaign and the president at one point considered appointing him as Treasury Secretary. Trump's pressure campaign against American universities over pro Palestine activism was largely based on Rowan's crusade against his Alma mater, the University of Pennsylvania; Kraft Group gave a million dollars to Trump in the same period. Trump appointed Rowan to the Gaza Board of Peace, apparently for no other reason than he was a billionaire who has donated money to him.

Len Blavatnik - Ukrainian Jewish Billionaire who gave $12M to the Council of Foreign Relations. He was fined by the Federal Trade Commission in 2016 for violating anti trust laws; has repeatedly failed to report stock purchases; abused federal bankruptcy laws; purchased controlling shares of Channel 10 after being approached by Netanyahu because it benefited (((Arnon Milchan))). Back in 2006, Russar, Sol and Glencore, which is (((Marc Rich)))'s commodity company, merged; the CEO of Glencore was (((Ivan Ginsberg))), when they were bribing foreign officials to secure cargo contracts, bureaucrats to avoid audits, and judges to make the lawsuits go away. Marc Rich and Pincus Green, also involved in human trafficking, were on INTERPOL's most wanted list, as well as the Epstein list. They were pardoned by Bill Clinton an hour before he left office as president.

Michael Dell - Has donated millions to Friends of the IDF, of which he is a member; the 12th richest person in the world; had to settle a fraud case with the SCC; in 2022, he settled $1.1B with shareholders, related to his stock swap transactions.

His foundation's website reads: "The mission of the Paul E. Singer Foundation is to support and create innovative and effective organizations and initiatives that strengthen American democracy, the future of Israel as a Jewish and democratic state and Jewish continuity.''

George W. Bush brought Singer to Jerusalem for the 60th anniversary of the state of Israel as part of a 50 member honorary delegation.

After President Nicolás Maduro's capture, Venezuela shipped its first crude cargo to Israel since 2020. The only American to benefit was (((Paul Singer))), who's hedge fund (Elliott Management) emerged victorious in an auction for US oil refiner Citgo Petroleum while it was cheap during the sanctions, despite being out-bid by over $2B, because a judge forced the sale in his favor. The judge in question was, (((Robert Pincus))), the former President of the Jewish Federation in Delaware, also on the board of directors of AIPAC. With sanctions lifted, Singer became the beneficiary of a $100B windfall. Beforehand, Maduro had tried to work out a deal through Richard Grenell, but on October 2 Trump ordered Grenell to stop all diplomatic outreach, guaranteeing conflict.

Haim Saban - Major donor to the Democratic Party; Gave a million to UDP; $7M in one donation to the Democratic National Committee, one of the largest known donations ever made to an American political party; Saban became a billionaire by forming Saban Entertainment, which plagiarized Power Rangers from Japan.

In 2002, Saban donated $5M to Bill Clinton's presidential library; he has given more over $5M to the Clinton Foundation. Saban asked Hillary what she would do in the event of an Iranian nuclear attack on Israel; she said: "We will obliterate them." The Wikileaks hack of Clinton's campaign chairman's emails revealed how Saban communicated directly with the Clinton and her top advisers.

In 2013, Obama spoke at a dinner hosted at Saban's Beverly Hills home.

Saban raised an astonishing amount for Democratic hopeful, Joe Biden in 2020, hosting a $500K per ticket fundraiser for him, which raised $4.5M.

At a conference in Israel, Saban described his formula: ''make donations to political parties, establish think tanks, and control media outlets.''
