If you vote against genocide, you owe no apology for “single issue voting” given how red genocide is as a red line. However, genocide is not single issue. It involves transparency in government, it involves defense spending, it involves immigration, it involves the right to dissent and policing.

Angela Davis (2016) analyzes how Israel’s lobbying efforts spread its “tentacles” into black churches, cementing its influence more effectively than Afrikaner apartheid lobbyists previously could.

ANGELA Y. DAVIS
Certainly there was a powerful apartheid lobby, but it did not have nearly the influence as the Zionist lobby, which can be seen in terms of Black religion; its tentacles reach into the Black church, there have been direct efforts to, on the part of the state of Israel, to recruit significant Black figures. And I don't know whether we experienced that level of sophistication during the antiapartheid era. Certainly the Israeli state has learned from that movement. But at the same time I think that we've never seen on a grassroots level the kind of affinity with the struggle in Palestine as we are witnessing today among activist groups. And my experience has been whereas once one would have expected perhaps restrained enthusiasm for the Palestinian struggle, now one can expect that audiences everywhere embrace this struggle.
