Who says that AIPAC cannot politically bleed? Who says that the Jewish Lobby cannot be challenged? If you are one of those people, then pay attention. Just a few days ago,

“[T]he pro-war lobbying organization AIPAC was defeated on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives by a vote of 126 to 302. Among Democrats, 40 supported the pro-AIPAC position and 144 opposed it. Among Republicans, 86 supported the pro-AIPAC position and 158 opposed it.

“The pro-AIPAC position in the House vote was to support the Senate’s language on Trade Adjustment Assistance. Under the voting procedures passed by the House Republican leadership, a yes vote in the House on the Senate’s TAA language was necessary in order for the House to pass the Senate’s version of fast track trade negotiating authority to pre-approve the Trans-Pacific Partnership. When TAA was defeated in the House, fast track was defeated in the House.

“The Senate’s version of fast track trade negotiating authority contained an AIPAC-sponsored provision making it U.S. policy to oppose European restrictions on trade with illegal Israeli settlements in the Palestinian West Bank.

“So when fast track was defeated in the House, AIPAC was defeated in the House.”[1]
