“…Noting the high voting rate of individual American Jews in elections, J.J. Goldberg, editorial director of The Forward, stated in a 2004 speech that The Jewish lobby… is actually more than just a dozen organizations. The Anti-Defamation League, the American Jewish Committee, Hadassah, of course, AIPAC, but it is also the impact of the Jewish role. … So, the Jewish influence is a lot of things. It is the organizations, it’s the vote, it’s fundraising.”

It’s important to understand that many of these lobby groups have Israel and israelis/jews as its number one priority, then America and americans, and perhaps after that the rest of the world… The reason a lot of focus is on these lobby groups is because together they are the biggest (in terms of fiscal muscles (direct and indirect assets)) lobby groups that lobby for the existance and sovereignty of another country (in this case Israel). This has led to serious effects on the world’s policy in the middle east, especially from an american point of view…
Update for those who don’t get the point:
In the future, if you want to change american policy about Iran to be similiar like the US-Israel policy, you need to engage in lobbying…
