Jimmy Dore: With the current presidential administration — along with most members of Congress — showing unbelievable deference to Israel, Jimmy sought advice on countering the Zionist toadyism among Democrats and Republicans alike from Dr. Michael Rectenwald, a former NYU professor and founder of the Anti-Zionist American PAC.
Jimmy and Dr. Rectenwald discuss the latter’s failed Libertarian nomination bid, lament how entrenched party systems block third parties, and why he chose a nonpartisan PAC to counter pro-Israel lobbying by endorsing and funding candidates based solely on their stance toward Israel-related policy and foreign aid.
Dr. Rectenwald highlights specific congressional races the PAC is targeting, including challenges to outspoken pro-Israel lawmakers like Randy Fine, framing the effort as a bid to restore U.S. national sovereignty. The discussion also addresses accusations of antisemitism, with Rectenwald asserting that opposition to Zionism is criticism of a political ideology rather than a religious or ethnic group.
