NY Mayor tells AIPAC: ‘Part of my job description is to be a defender of Israel’

Mondoweiss
"The progressive NY mayor can take on the wealthy and fight racism, but he pandered to the Israel lobby group AIPAC last night behind closed doors. de Blasio called for a boycott of Saudi Airlines and a continuation of the “transcendent” partnership between Cornell and an Israeli university in NY. And he said his job description was to defend Israel. “You have a friend and an ally at City Hall… When you need me to stand by you in Washington or anywhere, I will answer the call and I will answer it happily, because that’s my job.”"
