Grant F. Smith, the director of the Institute for Research: Middle Eastern Policy, discusses the influential American-Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC). Smith has written several books on AIPAC. which was started with $60 million in foreign funding, largely from Israel, but eluded U.S. efforts to register it as a foreign agent.
While it's treated as a domestic lobbying organization, Smith says AIPAC today continues to act as a foreign agent for Israel, employing campaign contributions, covert pressure campaigns and espionage in collusion with Israel to advance policies that serve the state of Israel but not the United States or the public good.
