AIPAC lobbyists ask Israeli diplomats to testify

By Yossi Melman

Two lobbyists implicated in the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) scandal submitted a request Monday to have Israeli diplomats in Washington testify in their hearings.

Attorneys Steve Rosen and Keith Weissman, who are facing charges of disclosing confidential information to Israel, asked the court to summon the diplomats.





Rosen and Weissman claim the diplomats' testimony is needed to prove their claims that they are innocent, and were involved solely in routine lobbying work.

The diplomats' identities were not revealed, although it is believed that one of them is political adviser Naor Gilon.

Israeli Embassy spokesperson David Segal said the embassy was still reviewing the request, but that it had agreed in principal to cooperate.
