Should AIPAC Register as a Foreign Agent? Zeteo Examines Pro-Israel Lobby's Influence on Elections

Support our work: https://democracynow.org/donate/sm-de... The growing controversy over AIPAC's impact on U.S. politics is the subject of a new Zeteo documentary titled "Night Flower: Inside AIPAC's Fight for Influence." The film examines AIPAC's history and its role in shaping U.S. policy toward Israel, and questions whether its activities warrant further scrutiny under the Foreign Agents Registration Act, or FARA. "It says that you have to register under this law if you are acting at the request of a foreign government," says Dion Nissenbaum, the filmmaker behind _Night Flower: Inside AIPAC's Fight for Influence_. "And we talked to numerous people who showed us several examples of how AIPAC is acting at the request of Israel."
