I learned of Brit Tzedek v'Shalom (Jewish alliance for justice and peace) from my rabbi, who has often referenced them. They are becoming a bigger US grassroots organization, but get little coverage in the regular of the Jewish press (though I read very little of that - so I could be wrong).

There is an enormous discontinuity between the power of AIPAC and the number of Jews in this country that agree with their more right wing policies. AIPAC is supported by many very wealthy powerful Jews - but you still have 75% of Jews voting as Democrats - and most as liberal Democrats.
