Israel keeps a secret government within most cities and states.

Your city is assigned a Sayanim hierarchy responsible for "encouraging" local leaders and finance to work in line with zionist principles and goals.

For example, your state's governor will have regular conversations with a representative from the Israeli government, who lobbies on behalf of them and promotes specific laws or cultural events. The federal government has a system of verifying that local systems are operating in accordance with these ideals. Those who veer from this system are often replaced or lose campaign funding or support.

AIPAC does much more than lobby congressman.

Now you know.
