3.   Jewish National Fund--Keren Kayemett (JNF)

4.   Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting in America (CAMERA)

5.   Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs (JINSA)

6.   Friends of the Israel Defense Forces (FIDF)

7.   Center for Security Policy (CSP)

8.   Middle East Forum (MEF)

9.   Washington Institute for Near East Policy (WINEP)

 

This list of organizations in the Israel Lobby is obviously not comprehensive. They do, however, represent some of the strongly pro-Israel elements in the Israel Lobby.   Probably most of them are in agreement with settlement expansion, which makes them especially relevant to the focus of this paper.

Several of the foundations that were listed on the website www.settlementsinpalestine.org were used to represent the universe of foundations supporting illegal settlements.    The Foundation Center Online was again accessed to obtain information on grants received by these foundations (the grantees), and the foundations that provided the grants to them (the grantors). The grantee foundations for which information was obtained include the following:

 

American Friends of Ariel

American Friends of Ateret Cohanim - Jerusalem Reclamation Projec

American Friends of Bat Ayin Yeshiva

American Friends of Beit Orot
