Martin S. Indyk is a veteran lobbyist for Israel, the founding director of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy and the current vice president and director of foreign policy at the Brookings Institution.[1] He is also a former director of Brookings' Saban Center for Middle East Policy.

Despite his well known affiliation with the Israel Lobby[2] and his Australian nationality, he was appointed by Bill Clinton as the US Ambassador to Israel in 1995.[3] The issuance of his US nationality was expedited for the appointment. Once appointed to public office he ceased being a 'lobbyist', but joined the growing ranks of the Israel-First fifth column in the U.S.

He frequently appears on CNN as a "Middle-East expert".
