Samuel,
In order to be kept informed about such events, I suggest Muzzlewatch.org; Jewish Voice for Peace, and US Campaign to End the Occupation.

best,

March 12 Protest: Congress Stand Up to AIPAC
Mon.Mar.12.2007@6:00PM to Mon.Mar.12.2007@8:00PM

Call to Protest AIPAC’s Annual Conference Issued 2/21/07 MONDAY, MARCH 12 - 6 to 8 PM DC Convention Center, Mount Vernon Place between 7th & 9th Streets NW
CONGRESS, STAND UP TO AIPAC
Stop Funding Crimes Against Palestinians And Iraq and Iran Wars
See endorsement list below
DC Antiwar Network invites other peace and justice organizations to endorse and/or participate in a peaceful “Congress Stand Up to AIPAC” demonstration on Monday, March 12 from 6:00 to 8:00 pm. We will protest the “Gala Banquet” of the 2007 American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) annual conference
Dozens of congressional representatives and executive branch officials will attend the AIPAC banquet. Senate leaders Harry Reid and Mitch McConnell and house leader Nancy Pelosi will speak. We encourage those inside and outside of D.C. who cannot attend to take other action:
* call congressional representatives, especially Reid, McConnel and Pelosi, and ask them NOT to attend the AIPAC conference.
* lobby congressional representatives in person or via phone on March 13th for Palestinian rights and/or against Iraq and Iran wars. On the afternoon of March 13th one thousand or more AIPAC conference goers will be lobbying congress in person against Palestinian rights and in support of war against Iran.

Location: Mount Vernon Place between 7 & 9th Sts NW, across from Convention Center, Washington, DC
Metro: Gallery Pl/Chinatown

I absolutely agree with Samuel. AIPAC should be required to register as an agent of a foreign government.

Aipac is the entity that ought to be placed under the scrutiny of the american public, once the public sees a foreign lobby excercising so much power and control over our government they will place political pressure on our elected officials to do something about them , maybe aipac will chose to come to their senses and purge their collective hearts of the hatred that governs their policies.

true power never relinquishes its hold willingly, it ought to never be underestimated.
best of luck as your quest for peace progresses.
