Somewhat. For you it's a major improvement. For me? J street is just another pro-Israel lobby.
I haven't moved much in my positions on Israel since joining the forum. Maybe a little, but not much. I was always more sympathetic to J Street than AIPAC. I'm not in love with AIPAC's sanctimony and occasional scaremongering. But hey, I guess that's what lobbyists do.
I came to AIPAC's defense on the other thread when people were leveling libelous absurdities about how AIPAC controls US foreign policy and such nonsense.
