(6.August) Obama himself conceded that when he noted that Israel is the only country in the world that opposes the Iran agreement. He should have noted that AIPAC (and its satellite organizations) constitute the only lobby operating in Washington that opposes the agreement because that is the case too.

In fact, Israel, the lobby, and their cutouts (like the neocons in the media) constitute the entire opposition. One top Senate aide put it to me like this: „If Netanyahu said he could live with the deal, not a single Democrat would oppose it. Not one.“
