Israel launched a military operation to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons and to attack its increasingly dangerous ballistic missile arsenal. This operation came after the IAEA officially declared Iran was not in compliance with its non-proliferation obligations and the regime ignored President Trump’s 60-day deadline to reach a peaceful agreement to resolve the nuclear issue.

Over the past year, Israel has effectively defended itself against simultaneous and sustained attacks from Iran and its proxies, thanks to Israel's Qualitative Military Edge (QME).

On April 13, Iran carried out a massive and unprecedented attack on Israel. The regime launched over 300 missiles and drones from Iranian soil at Israel, the first time Iran has struck at Israel directly from its own territory. The United States must stand with our ally as it acts to defend itself, work with Israel to deter further attacks, and prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon.

AIPAC supports pro-Israel Democrats and Republicans, ensuring that good policy is also good politics. AIPAC endorsed 365 candidates in 2022. 98% of AIPAC-endorsed candidates won their general election. In 2022, AIPAC PAC was dollar-for-dollar the largest contributor to candidates in American politics.
