AIPAC's co-director of policy and government affairs Brad Gordon stated in July 2006 that AIPAC is not pressing for military action against Iran. According to Gordon, AIPAC's goal is a strong diplomatic and economic response coordinated among the United States, its European allies, Russia and China. But AIPAC has repeatedly lobbied to levy economic embargos and increase sanctions against Iran. And recently AIPAC lobbied successfully for the removal of a provision in an Iraq war funding bill that would have required the president to get congressional approval for war against Iran.
