I was not only making the claim on her but also such ads as crossing the line clearly in my initial post. if only you look before leaping.
Once again, the issue is not whether the ad is offensive -- it is running regardless -- but what effect it will have. I like it because it brings Israel center stage, which is where it belongs.
Are you serious, you are citing me books and Google search to claim the greatest melting pot that allows even Muslims to be a part of the fabric of our country- is beholden to a singular group? This where you lose on any intellectual thought. They have a such great hold that most Jews vote democrats LOL. They have such great Hold that Iran is yet to be attacked or not once did Americans fight side by side with Israel.
What does melting pot have anything to do with this? The influence of the Zionist lobby has been studied and debated academically. I can't spoonfeed you but here's one reference (there's plenty more after you digest this):

Happy reading...
You want to know which fundamentalist has a " hold on" which country?
This discussion is about an ad campaign in America.
I thought you knew america. Majority Jews vote democrats. Democrats is whom Israeli PM dislikes.. so really the best chance of war with Iran, which Zionist would love was Bush or Romney next. Zionist hold would have made sure we did not have any relationship with any Arab countries let alone fund billions to one of them. Zionist Hold at worst would not have supported the Arab spring in Egypt- look what they got instead " the Muslim brotherhood" . The biggest Jewish concentration state NY, where this Ad is placed- If had a Zionist hold then they would NOT have the govt ban it at first.
Man, you are obsessed with this 'Jews vote for democrats' thing as if it means anything.
Firstly, as I mentioned, Christian Zionists probably outnumber Jewish Zionists in the US anyway.
Secondly, as I also mentioned, both parties have similar views on Israel. Both parties suck up to AIPAC at every opportunity, so there's not much difference either way.
Finally, you have a quaintly simplistic view of politics. There is something called 'choosing your battles' -- the Israel lobby doesn't need to stick its nose in every tiny affair; only in those that matter dearly to Israel. America's relationship with Muslim countries is complex to the extent that it serves American interests but is constantly jeopardized by the demands of the Israel lobby.
Yes you do and you sure have funny way of calling everyone that points out their follies as being anti-Islam.
Wrong. We criticise people who equate Islamism with Islam. People who do that are either lazy or Islamophobes.
You seem to have a tendency to conflate issues: you equate Islamism with Islam, Zionism with Judaism, etc.
To Americans " jihadist= terrorist" . Just like you guys call Israelis savage terrorist on the Palestine issue... pot meet the kettle..
The question is about jihadist v/s anti-Israel.
you try to paint it under the guise of difference, when called out- but you think/ your posting here always speaks like the state of Israel and an entire people Jews are Zionist.
My example itself proved that "an entire people Jews" are
NOT Zionists!
Duh!
