AIPAC’s $500,000 ad push underscores growing US-Israel rift over Iran nuclear talks

Published April 29, 2025 7:32pm ET



The American Israel Public Affairs Committee rolled out a $500,000 ad campaign on Tuesday, urging President Donald Trump to maintain a hard-line stance on Iran as talk of a possible diplomatic agreement over its nuclear program gains traction. 

The ad from the powerful pro-Israel lobbying group intensifies pressure on the Trump administration, demanding the full dismantling of Iran’s nuclear program and featuring previous comments from Trump declaring that Tehran must never be allowed to acquire a nuclear weapon. It is airing on Fox News and across social media, according to the lobbying giant.
