Mission
THE JEWISH INSTITUTE FOR NATIONAL SECURITY OF AMERICA (JINSA) WAS FOUNDED IN 1976 AS A NON-PROFIT, NON-PARTISAN ORGANIZATION DEDICATED TO ADVANCING U.S. NATIONAL SECURITY INTERESTS IN THE MIDDLE EAST, OF WHICH A CRITICAL PILLAR IS A ROBUST U.S.-ISRAEL SECURITY RELATIONSHIP. JINSA BELIEVES THAT ISRAEL IS THE MOST CAPABLE AND CRITICAL U.S. SECURITY PARTNER IN THE 21ST CENTURY AND THAT A STRONG AMERICA IS THE BEST GUARANTOR OF WESTERN CIVILIZATION. JINSA ADVANCES ITS MISSION BY CONDUCTING BOTH EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS THAT BUILD TIES AMONG AMERICAN, ISRAELI AND OTHER MIDDLE EASTERN PARTNER MILITARY LEADERS, ALONG WITH IN-DEPTH RESEARCH AND ACTIONABLE RECOMMENDATIONS TO INFLUENCE U.S. POLICY.
