If Americans Knew is a nonprofit organization that focuses on the Arab–Israeli conflict and the foreign policy of the United States regarding the Middle East, offering analysis of American media coverage of these issues. Its mission, according to the group's website, is to provide "what every American needs to know about Israel/Palestine." The site is generally critical of U.S. financial and military support of Israel. It has accused The New York Times of being biased against Palestinians.
In addition to the freelance journalist and founder Alison Weir, board members include Paul Findley, a former United States Representative, and Andrew Killgore, a former ambassador of the United States to Qatar.
