The Senate Intelligence Committee is set to release two reports on Monday detailing the breadth of the Russian social media campaign to sow discord in the United States.

The reports, both of which were commissioned by the committee, are based on troves of data that Facebook, Twitter, and Google handed over to the committee about the Russian campaign to influence the 2016 U.S. presidential election and American politics generally. Much of the data has not previously been disclosed publicly.

Researchers analyzed more than 10 million tweets, 116,000 Instagram posts, 61,000 Facebook posts and 1,000 videos posted by the Russian government-linked Internet Research Agency (IRA), the troll group indicted by Special Counsel Robert Mueller earlier this year.

Did they detect any meddling activity by Israel?

If not, then there's no point in worrying about the Russians.

Please explain.

It's clear that the Russians exerted massive influence in order to deprive Americans of a fair and honest election.

This is no longer in dispute.

What is your issue with our dependent state of Israel?

My issue is AIPAC. A political action committee that isn't even denying that their purpose is to be an influential body intent to creating a political environment in the US that is friendly to Israel.

Ever heard of ARPAC? If there was such an organization (American Russian Political Action Committee), wouldn't the D's, CNN & Mueller be all over it screaming collusion, meddling and all?

Well, there's no such thing as ARPAC, but there is an AIPAC. So if anyone is concerned about foreign governments messing with US elections, that is SERIOUSLY concerned, they should be taking down Israel.

"Friendly to Israel"

What that actually means is "continuing to support Israel with Billions annually in US tax-dollars"

Absent humanitarian need, a sensible policy would be to eliminate foreign government welfare payments.

I absolutely agree.

But that's beside the point. Israel DOES engage in HEAVY influence on US politics. If we don't like foreign countries meddling in US affairs, Israel is the place to start as their influence is huge and involves a lot more than just trying to influence votes via facebook. They actively donate to campaigns and then move to influence everyone in Congress.

And for anyone who gets bent out of shape over what the Russians may have done, the US does the same world over without any remorse from D's OR R's, and doesn't waste time with FB posting when it does.

Really? Isn't that illegal? Have any examples of campaign donations?

Well, you may be right that "Political Action Committiees" may be prohibited from donating to specific election campaigns. I'm sketchy on those legal details. Perhaps their activities are limited to lobbying sitting elected officials or promoting a pro-Israel perspectives via media participation, but there's no denying that there is a political action committee dedicated to this, and Israel does engage in media manipulation to deride those who criticize it, and that this effort goes beyond simply being the work of US citizens who are pro-Israel.

All countries lobby.

Maybe Israels interests are more aligned with ours.

Maybe it is because they don't go on TV like the Palestinians do and call for murdering Jews.

Israel is a bit more civilized. If a Jew murders a Muslim in an Israeli bar. The Jew will be prosecuted. If a Muslim in the Gaza strip kills a Jew. He will be rewarded.
