I teach AP US Government. I’ve never seen polling showing Congress this out of touch across the board. It’s wild.#Palestine

It’s useful to note that this survey was a little over three weeks ago. Since then, support for a ceasefire has increased along with support for the US to be a neutral arbiter in the region. https://www.reuters.com/world/us-public-support-israel-drops-majority-backs-ceasefire-reutersipsos-2023-11-15/

@freedomtux Thanks for the reading recommendation. That looks really interesting. One more for the reading pile.Not having read his book, I’ll just note that the ideological capture appears to be very quick and surprisingly complete.

@adam His comments (mostly presentations and podcasts available on the web afaik) post the book are also pretty damning - that the Israel lobby doubled down after his book release and maintained even more power within the two partiesHe also appeared on Glenn Greenwald's System Update recently
