It is a cyber attack if the popularity is not organic, but rather manipulated by state actors?

So AIPAC is a cyberattack? Not trying to start a tangent, just trying to understand your argument.

Is AIPAC a foreign agent (are they required to register with the US government as such)?

[pphysch]

De facto, yes. There is substantial evidence that AIPAC and the broader Israel lobby coordinates closely with a foreign government.

However, due to their enormous influence, they have avoided de jure registering as such.

By your logic, the Romanian dark horse can't possibly be a Russian op because they never officially registered as a Russian agent.

I was very careful in my wording: someone who is required to register by law may choose to not do so.
