If Americans Knew

[9][10] According to the organization's website, founder Alison Weir traveled independently throughout the West Bank and Gaza Strip in 2001, where she found a situation she considered to be different from what was being reported by the American media.

[7] In addition to its information website, If Americans Knew places billboards and advertisements about U.S. financial support for Israel[11][12][13] and founder Weir publishes op-eds about the topic in the Orlando Sentinel.

[23] Executive Director Alison Weir writes that ending U.S. military aid to Israel would "help bring peace to the Middle East, build a safer world and alleviate massive misery.

"[28] Weir stated that she considered this quoted characterization as not pertaining to the mainstream of Judaism,[29] and has demanded that the ADL correct what she termed "defamatory and inaccurate statements.

"[30] Jewish Voice for Peace criticised IAK for arguing that America is innocent of perpetuating injustice in the Middle East, for its "tail wags the dog" approach to Israel–US relations, and its devaluing of both Jewish and Palestinian perspectives on the conflict: "according to Weir and If Americans Knew, only non-Arab, non-Muslim, non-Palestinian, and non-Jewish voices can be trusted to speak the truth, based solely on their ethnic or religious identity".
