Eli Clifton discussed the current state of the Israel lobby ahead of U.S. midterm elections in remarks to Mondoweiss, describing the movement as facing an "existential threat." Clifton, author of the forthcoming book "Israel's Lobby: America in the Grip of a Foreign Power," addressed shifts in AIPAC's political landscape and the organization's evolving role in American politics.
The comments reflect broader debate over the lobby's traditional dominance in shaping U.S. foreign policy toward Israel, as demographic and ideological changes reshape American political coalitions.
