"In the early 1960's, Israel funneled more than $5 million into US propaganda and lobbying operations. The funding, equivalent to more than $35 million in today's dollars, was laundered from the the quasi governmental Jewish Agency into an Israel lobby umbrella group, the American Zionist Council. This two page master plan was subpoenaed by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and discussed in the 1963 hearings on Israel's US foreign agents." (thanks Karim)
