fully understood the extent of groups, funding etc. that takes place on the Israeli side of issues that is way beyond the typical AIPAC discussions. Since large amounts of money are run through various organizations and non-profits that provide funding for illegal settlement activity in the West Bank and provision of civilians from the US to spend extended "trips" to Israel for the purpose of providing administrative, construction, maintenance and other support services at IDF bases in Israel those kinds of "influence and conduct" activities should be discussed as well. Along with the considerable money that funds groups and individuals to be a presence on social media, news sites etc. and coordinates putting out a "desired" narrative as well as suppressing if possible any narrative they don't like.

No matter how either side tries to deny or decry these kinds of activities on their part or their opposition it still is a fact. But the pot calling the kettle black has been a feature of these sides for a very, very, very long time.
