>Israel isn’t a very big or globally powerful nation
Israel has enormous influence over the most powerful nation on earth through AIPAC. Every president meets with them. Every Congressman goes to Israel as "tradition". Many federal representatives are dual Israeli/US citizens.

- ben_w 5y agoSure, and there’s a big gap between that and asking “How many countries don't have high level officials reporting to Israel?”, which is what I was replying to. Even without the USA having been a major destination for the Jewish diaspora while the point of modern Israel being a safe place for Jewish people[0], the global importance of the USA makes the American government a target for almost all other nations to try to influence. America gets this from both a the motive and opportunity directions. Most places, Israel has neither, IMO. [0] at least that’s what I was taught. If this isn’t the case, someone please tell me.
