J Street

JStreet is an organization that, according to its website, "was founded to change the dynamics of American politics and policy on Israel and the Middle East." Observers believe that the group, while nominally supporting Israel, is a pro-Palestinian wolf-in-sheep's-clothing.[1]

Merge with JStreet

As of January 1, 2010, the Jewish Alliance for Justice & Peace was incorporated into the J Street Education Fund to "strengthen the pro-Israel pro-peace movement and to advocate for strong American leadership to achieve a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as well as a broader regional peace." At this point the two organizations integrated all of their staff, chapters and programs into J Street.[2]

Adivisory Council

Over 160 former public officials, policy experts, community and academic leaders serve on the J Street Advisory Council.[3]

JStreet Education Fund

The J Street Education Fund, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) that aims to educate targeted communities "about the need for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, raise the visibility of a mainstream pro-Israel, pro-peace presence within the American Jewish community, and promote open, dynamic and spirited conversation about how to best advance the interests and future of a democratic, Jewish Israel." J Street Local, J Street’s national field program and J Street U, J Street’s on campus movement are programs of the J Street Education Fund.[1]
