Who Paid for Anti-Iran Nuke Deal Ads that permeated my TV?

Collecting these articles here for posterity so to speak 

I just googled "who is paying for anti iran nuke deal ads" and found some interesting things will add more in comments:"Disclosure documents list only Patrick Dorton as being behind the group. Presumably that's the Patrick Dorton who's a partner at Rational 360, a "full service strategic communications" firm. That Patrick Dorton worked in the Clinton White House and has previously worked with The American Israel Public Affairs Committee. Calls made to Rational 360 and another phone number listed on the documents were not immediately returned.'
