I was reading about Israel interfering with US elections and spying on the US decades ago.

Why is this news now?

Us gives Israel money, Israel uses that money to buy people in power in the US, those bought people then ensure US taxpayewr money flows to israel to...and so the cycle continues.

Nothing explains the US being subservient to Israel than this.

The reason it's news today is because intelligence services, which are venerated by american journalism, brought the issue forward.

...but in general, the conflation of Israel with Jewishness, and the conflation of anti-zionism with anti-semitism, has allowed the entrenchment of Israel's interests in broad daylight against our best interests.
