  • The Washington Institute for Near East Policy (TWI; known informally as WINEP) is a Washington, DC-based think tank which concerns itself with U.S. -Middle East policy. It was founded in 1985, with backing from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), by Martin Indyk, an American lobbyist and research director for AIPAC, who would later be appointed U.S. Ambassador to Israel. It differs from AIPAC, however, in that AIPAC has a partisan image, while WINEP positioned itself as "friendly to Israel but doing credible research on the Middle East in a realistic and balanced way. " Likewise, AIPAC attempts to influence the U.S. Congress through campaign contributions, while WINEP focuses on influencing the media and U.S. executive branch. According to its mission statement, it was "established to advance a balanced and realistic understanding of American interests in the Middle East. Under the guidance of a distinguished and bipartisan Board of Advisors, the Institute seeks to bring scholarship to bear on the making of U.S. policy in this vital region of the world. Drawing on the research of its scholars and the experience of policy practitioners, the Institute promotes an American engagement in the Middle East committed to strengthening alliances, nurturing friendships, and promoting security, peace, prosperity, and democracy for the people of the region. " Its activities include annual conferences, a Presidential Study Group composed of a "bipartisan blue-ribbon commission charged with drafting a blueprint for the next administration's Middle East policy," closed-door policy forums, and various publications and research programs. Since January 1993, it is led by Executive Director Robert Satloff. Several current and former members of WINEP have served in senior positions in the administrations of Presidents George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama. Members of its Board of Advisors include Warren Christopher, Lawrence S. Eagleburger, Alexander Haig, Max Kampelman, Samuel W. Lewis, Edward Luttwak, Michael Mandelbaum, Robert McFarlane, Martin Peretz, Richard Perle, James Roche, Cheryl Halpern, George P. Shultz, R. James Woolsey, and Mortimer Zuckerman.
