The following is a presentation made at the 2015 Israel Lobby Con held at the National Press Club.
Amani Alkhatahtbeh is the founding editor-in-chief of MuslimGirl.net, a blog aimed at eliminating stereotypes surrounding Islam and promoting the place of Muslim women in Western societies.
Alkhatahtbeh’s dedication to building bridges across different religious and cultural communities has been recognized in a New Jersey state resolution honoring the top community service pioneers in the state. She was a Lloyd Gardner Fellow and a Women’s Leadership Scholar at Rutgers University, where she conducted multiple independent studies on the Arab Spring and Middle Eastern politics. She ran into trouble with The Daily Targum, Rutgers University’s daily newspaper, and trustees, which decided that criticism of Israel is anti-Semitic.
Alkhatahtbeh is a blogger for the Atlantic Council, a foreign policy think tank in Washington, DC. In June 2014, the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee named her its media relations specialist. She is a regular speaker at events on political and social issues.
Since 2015 the annual IsraelLobbyCon conference series at the National Press Club explores the latest research, innovations and tactics for countering the Israel lobby’s damaging policies in the U.S. and around the globe.
The conference is solely sponsored by the American Educational Trust, publisher of the Washington Report on Middle East Affairs, and the Institute for Research: Middle Eastern Policy (IRmep).
