The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is one of the world’s major sources of instability. Americans are directly connected to this conflict, and increasingly imperiled by its devastation.

It is the goal of If Americans Knew to provide full and accurate information on this critical issue, and on our power – and duty – to bring a resolution.

Hi Jennifer.

While the goals of IAK are laudible, having gotten their literature, as long as they approach the problem as they do, peace will not come to SouthWest Asia.

Its not a problem that not enough americans "know the facts", if the British establishment is committed to permanent conflict in that part of the world, dragging us along with them as their lackeys, then there is going to be conflict.

Just look at the grief former pres. Carter is getting for pointing out the obvious issue of the aparthied being carried out by the Israeli government. Carters op-ed on the issue of the press black-out and suppresion of any discussion is well worth reading too.
