Introduction:
ThediscussionofZionistPowerConfiguration(ZPC)intheUSpoliticalsystemrevolvesaroundseveralessentialissues,including:
1.
TheclaimsbytheZPCthatitrepresentsJewishopinionandvaluesaswellasitsauthoritytospeakfortheinterestsoftheAmericanpeople.
2.
MeasuringthepoweroftheZPCanddeterminingitsinfluenceoverpolicy,appointmentsandpoliticalinstitutions.
3.
ThequestionofwhethertheZPCisalegitimatepartoftheUSpoliticalsystem,anotherlobby,orsomethingverydifferent,anunregisteredagentofa

ThescopeanddepthoftheZPCinfluenceinUSpoliticsbeyondthefocusonitslobbyinginWashingtononasingleissue.
5.
TheorganizationalweaponsandtechniquesutilizedbytheZPCtomaximizeinfluenceanddenyvoiceandinfluencetocriticsofIsraelanditself.
