A pro-Israel super PAC, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), is actively working to unseat Missouri Democrat Cori Bush in her upcoming primary race against St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Wesley Bell. AIPAC's super political action committee, United Democracy Project, has invested over $8.4 million in efforts to defeat Bush, citing her vocal criticism of Israel's response to attacks by Hamas and her opposition to a resolution supporting Israel.
Bush, known for her strong stance against Israel's actions, has referred to the Israeli retaliation as an “ethnic cleansing campaign” and boycotted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech before Congress, labeling him a “war criminal.” Her comments have sparked controversy and divided opinions among constituents.
