That support comes at a price, though &#8212; not only to taxpayers but also to the integrity of American politicians who are on the dole of Israel in exchange for their endorsement.<\/p>\n<p>The following 10 American politicians have taken the most bribe money from Israel over the years to supports the Zionist agenda:<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1) Joe Biden<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>By far Israel&#8217;s most well-funded supporter, Joe &#8220;the big guy&#8221; Biden has taken in a whopping $4,346,264 dollars <em>that we know of<\/em> from the Jewish state. From the very beginning, Biden has bragged that he is &#8220;an implacable friend of Israel&#8221; who throughout his Senate career &#8220;shower[ed] Israel with unquestioning support, even when its behavior elicited bipartisan outrage.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Biden infamously helped to block a 1998 peace proposal with Palestine while securing record sums of U.S aid for the Jewish state. More recently, Biden has boasted that there are &#8220;no red lines&#8221; that Israel could ever cross that would cause the Jewish state to lose U.S. support.<\/p>\n<p>Back in November, Biden rubber-stamped another $14.5 billion in military aid to Israel to ensure a greater chance of success in Gaza.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/86Nrv5izaTs?si=6Qz2J0t0ILZA94QO\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n&#8212;<\/div>\n<h3><strong>2) Robert Men\u00e9ndez<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This Democrat New Jersey senator has raked in nearly $2.5 million in contributions from Israel for his unquestioning support for the Jewish state. Following the October 7 Hamas attack, Men\u00e9ndez delivered a prepared speech to Biden calling for his regime to &#8220;stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Israel and her people,&#8221; a cause that Men\u00e9ndez says he has been &#8220;devoted to &#8230; for 31 years in Congress.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RtBGd3yT1Vw?si=_yZBgxE20ry3hONu\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n&#8212;<\/div>\n<h3><strong>3) Mitch McConnell<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This Republican political dinosaur has amassed nearly $2 million in blood money from Israel for playing a critical role in promoting the Zionist agenda via American politics. A close friend of Benjamin Netanyahu, McConnell has condemned the United Nations (UN) and called on the U.S. to veto any UN resolution that in any way criticizes Israel.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>4) Chuck Schumer<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This prominent New York Democrat has taken in more than $1.725 million from the Israel lobby, in part for the role he is playing in steering the public conversation away from Israel&#8217;s war crimes and towards an alleged increase in &#8220;antisemitism&#8221; across America over the war in Gaza.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>5) Steny Hoyer<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The former House Majority Leader continues to be one of Israel&#8217;s most vocal supporters in the House of Representatives, having called on Congress to &#8220;immediately and unconditionally fund Israel.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>(Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.naturalnews.com\/2024-01-10-israel-held-gaza-civilians-torture-camp-evidence.html\">New evidence<\/a> shows that Israel held Gaza civilians in a &#8220;torture camp&#8221; after the October 7 Hamas attack.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>6) Ted Cruz<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This Texas Republican has received $1.3 million from the Israel lobby, stating that it is &#8220;critical&#8221; for every American to support Israel &#8220;100 percent.&#8221; Cruz is notorious for repeating the &#8220;human shields&#8221; line about Hamas, stating that Israel &#8220;has a right to defend itself&#8221; by committing genocide in Gaza.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>7) Ron Wyden<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This Oregon Democrat has accepted a cool nearly $1.28 million from Israel, having co-sponsored a bill in 2017 to punish Americans with a maximum 20-year prison sentence for participating in or even just encouraging boycotts against Israel and Israeli settlements.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>8) Dick Durbin<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Durbin&#8217;s nearly $1.2 million in bribe money from Israel is part of the reason why the Illinois Democrat called for immediate military aid to Israel after October 7, as well as his co-signing of a Senate resolution reaffirming Washington&#8217;s support for Israel&#8217;s &#8220;right to self-defense.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>9) Josh Gottheimer<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The more than $1.1 million that this New Jersey congressman has taken in from Israel is money well spent, seeing as how Gottheimer co-sponsored a bill equating opposition to the Israeli government&#8217;s actions with &#8220;antisemitism.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>10) Shontel Brown<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>During the two-year election cycle in 2020, this Ohio politician raked in more pro-Israel money than any other politician nationwide. Brown unequivocally supports Israel&#8217;s actions in Gaza and rejects the idea that Israel is an apartheid state.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sources for this article include:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/expose-news.com\/2024\/01\/10\/blood-money-the-top-ten-politicians-taking-the-most-israel-lobby-cash\/\">Expose-News.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.naturalnews.com\/2024-01-10-israel-held-gaza-civilians-torture-camp-evidence.html\">NaturalNews.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.naturalnews.com\/2024-01-15-blood-money-top-10-politicians-bribery-israel.html\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Confirming our suspicions about the man who has done more harm to America than any other U.S. politician  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":39262,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-280162","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-Israel_Anti-Semitism_Zionism_and_US-UK_allies"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/280162","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/39262"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=280162"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/280162\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":280194,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/280162\/revisions\/280194"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=280162"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=280162"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=280162"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
