"Israel can't give a penny to American Congressman."
No, of course not. The money flow with Israel is all in the other direction. The article, however, was about the pro-Israel lobby. This consists of campaign contributions from dozens of PACs with innocent-sounding names orchestrated by AIPAC. The totals for 1978-2000 was $34,607,182.
If you would like the details, as well as how much your congressman accepted, check out
http://www.wrmea.com/html/aipa c.htm.
That link does not seem to work for me. I think it's because of the space in aipa c. Type it in without the space.

I'm well aware of the influence, financial and otherwise, of the Israel lobbies. (The various groups differ ideologically and even look at Israel votes differently.)
On the otherhand, I have seen very little investigation of the Arab and Oil lobbies.
Teh Washington Report Is financed by members of the Saudi clan, if memory serves me. It is hardly an unbiased source.

There are no unbiased sources where Israel is concerned.

>Only the Northern Kingdom has been the mother of nations and producer of Kings. Virtually all the Celtic nations of northern and western Europe either has or has had a King as part of it's history.
Usually ignored in Biblical commentaries, that's worth saying again.
