Bernie Will Skip AIPAC
Weekly Standard ^ | 3/19/2016 | Daniel Halper

Posted on 03/19/2016 9:39:20 AM PDT by GilGil

Bernie Sanders will not join the rest of the presidential candidates and address AIPAC at next week's policy conference in Washington, D.C.

"I would very much have enjoyed speaking at the AIPAC conference. Obviously, issues impacting Israel and the Middle East are of the utmost importance to me, to our country and to the world," Sanders's letter to the pro-Israel organization states.

Does Bernie think that if he does not attend ratings for the event will go way down and therefore everyone will see how valuable Bernie is? Or is there another explanation why all the candidates are going but Bernie a Jew with deep roots is skipping?

From Wikipedia: Bernard Sanders was born on September 8, 1941, in Brooklyn, one of New York City's five boroughs.[5][6][7][8] His father, Elias Sanders, was born in Słopnice, Poland (then in the Austro-Hungarian province of Galicia),[9][10] to a Jewish family; in 1927 he immigrated to the United States at the age of 17.[9][11][12] His mother, Dorothy Sanders (née Glassberg), was born in New York City on October 2, 1912,[13][14] to Jewish immigrant parents from Poland and Russia.[15][16] Many of Elias's relatives who remained in Poland were killed in the Holocaust.[14][17][18] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernie_Sanders

Bernie is a JINO (really a Capo) so the Jews at AIPAC probably don’t really want him to show up!

He does not want to remind Rat voters he is Jewish. A LARGE percentage of Rats hate Jews.

Only the religious Jews. They're fine with 'Cultural Jews' aka 'Atheists.'

“Many of Elias’s relatives who remained in Poland were killed in the Holocaust.”

Killed in Hitlers death camps, by national socialists. Yet Slanders is a full blown socialist/communist.

Makes a person wonder if the dork is really a human.

Why wouldn’t people equally hate the other candidates for going to the event?

AIPAC is almost explicitly a Democrat Party operation, but disagrees strongly with Obama on Israel. Bernie is a Socialist Party adherent, and mostly agrees with Obama on Israel.

Sanders is definitely not a friend of Israel. The man is very confused and a weakling. He has no stomach to stand up to the bad guys. He is weak before the strong and strong before the weak.

Comrade Sanders would make a proper Kapo at a concentration camp. He would have no problem inflicting forced labor on prisoners or directing them into gas chambers.

Barack Obama got 69% of the Jewish vote in 2012, Romney got 30%.

Communism is another form of socialism. Same thing, just another form. GET IT?

Differences in form can be significant, ie. socialism in Sweden for the last 120 years versus North Korean communism for the last 60 years.
