The Yinon Plan was a document written in Hebrew by Oded Yinon. It was translated into English in 1982 by the anti-Zionist activist Israel Shahak.

Shahak writes in the foreword:

In an highly revealing article published in the World Zionist Organization periodical, Kivunim, Oded Yinon advocates that Israeli strategy in the 1980s aims to redraw the map of the Middle East, fragment the Arab states, and become, in effect, a regional superpower.[1]

It is noted in a prefatory passage:

This essay originally appeared in Hebrew in KIVUNIM (Directions), A Journal for Judaism and Zionism; Issue No, 14--Winter, 5742, February 1982, Editor: Yoram Beck. Editorial Committee: Eli Eyal, Yoram Beck, Amnon Hadari, Yohanan Manor, Elieser Schweid. Published by the Department of Publicity/The World Zionist Organization, Jerusalem.
