C-Span says it will televise his speech at 8:30pm tonight.
There is no indication that Obama has boycotted AIPAC. As recently as February 2016, Obama signed into law a bill that AIPAC had actively lobbied for.
The AIPAC is the, American Israel Public affairs comittee. It is an invaluable resource to those of us in office to advocate for public freedom and for perserving American interest.
YES, and in fact she is very active in the Jewish community. In various circles she seems to have a very tight association with the AIPAC group. Her husband is also a prominent lobbyist in DC, associated also with AIPAC. In effect some question her ability to provide objective journalism.

Because of the powerful Jewish lobby in the united states. AIPAC or the American Israeli Public Affairs committee is the most powerful foreign lobby in Washington and it influences all decision made on US foreign policy. This effect has been detrimental to the US image abroad and caused people around the world to hate the US. Obama has promised to combat the negative effects of lobby groups and he has since snubbed aipac for the less extreme Jewish lobby j street. U can check my answer in few minutes of googling if you like.
To try to win votes from Jewish people in the USA. To gain the support of AIPAC, a powerful lobby group.
It works the other way around. AIPAC pays the US government; that's how lobbying works.
apparently not. It is unclear what is meant by "take over". Israel has no interest in conquering or diplomatic wrestling with the United States considering that the United States is Israel's strongest ally. When Prime Minister Netanyahu began to complain about his reception in Washington, the opposition leader Mofaz said, "Who is your enemy, the United States or Iran?" He did this in order to remind Netanyahu that the United States is still Israel's greatest supporter and not to worry so much about the United States. As for AIPAC and other Israel-aligned lobbies, they have had a strong hand in American foreign policy for a while now and it has not grown or subsided in any strong way in the last decade.
Interest groups derive their power through various methods. The first is through their collective exercise of the Constitutional rights to freedom of speech, assembly, petition and press, in representation of their constituents. Their second means to power is through money, received by their members and used to fund political ad campaigns and individual politicians. Influential political interest groups and lobbies of the United States include the American Medical Association (AMA), American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), National Educators Association (NEA), and the National Rifle Association (NRA).
