It's ok to be angry about those who refuse to act on climate. Anger leads to action

The right-wing pro-Israel lobby is attacking progressives. This has everything to do with fossil fuels and resistance to action on the climate. The status quo in Israel is militarized, fossil-fueled relationships with dictatorships and ongoing oppression of Palestinians. All built on the oil-weapons-war cycle. We'll discuss this fall..

Peter Beinart: The Israel Lobby Is Spending Millions to Defeat Progressive Democrats in Primary Races

 https://www.democracynow.org/2022/7/19/maryland_donna_edwards_aipac_israel_palestine

Peter Beinart:

"So, there’s a group called Mainstream Democrats. If you look at their website, it says nothing about Israel-Palestine whatsoever. It just says it doesn’t want the Democratic Party to be taken over by far-left groups. But Mainstream Democrats is actually run by Democratic Majority for Israel. So what you see is this very, very close alliance. They work out of the same offices with the same staff, so, essentially, this extremely close relationship between groups that want to defeat progressives because they support Palestinian rights, and groups that just want to defeat progressives because they essentially want the Democratic Party to be dominated by people like Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema, who will do the bidding of the fossil fuel industry, the healthcare industry, the financial services industry."

People say the transition to renewable energy costs too much, biggest red herring talking point there is. The alternatives are much costlier.
