Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs

The Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs (JINSA) is a Washington, D.C.-based 501(c)(3) non-profit group which describes its role as "explaining the need for a prudent national security policy for the United States, addressing the security requirements of both the United States and the State of Israel, and strengthening the strategic cooperation relationship" between the two countries. 

Criticism
Critics have alleged, in part, that JINSA, perhaps in association with Frank Gaffney's Center for Security Policy is part of a cooperative initiative to influence governmental affairs in Washington in a manner favorable to Israel's interests.
