"Progressive Coalition Counters AIPAC's Influence on Democratic Candidates"
TL;DR
Progressive organizations in the US have formed a coalition called "Reject AIPAC" to counter the influence of the pro-Israel lobby group AIPAC, which is reportedly preparing a $100m offensive to target progressives in Congress. The coalition aims to support targeted candidates, lobby against AIPAC's agenda, and urge Democrats to renounce its support. AIPAC's involvement in US election campaigns has sparked criticism, with progressives denouncing its right-wing influence and advocating for a shift in US policy towards Palestine and Israel.
