So the Pro-Israel Lobby seems to be pushing for confrontation against Iran.
Here is a recent AIPAC report on Iran and nuclear capabilities.
"A second resolution including an arms embargo, enforced travel bans, asset freezes and other economic sanctions could bring more pressure to bear on an Iranian government and further stimulate internal forces already pushing the regime to abandon its nuclear pursuit."
Which now lets me link to a set of papers by Mearsheimer and Walt about the Pro-Israel Lobby. I make no judgments regarding the substance of their arguments, that is for you to decide on. My main problem is the lack of systematic analysis. This is typical ransacking of history to get results you want to support an argument.
