She has been published in a variety of media, including The Wall Street Journal. Schwartz worked as a senior policy consultant and held the role of director of the "Islam and Democracy Project" at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD), a neoconservative think-tank based in Washington, D.C. Schwartz is also the founder and executive director of the Washington, D.C.-based Center for Islamic Pluralism and served as a member of Folks Magazine's editorial board from 2011 to 2012. A student of Sufism since the 1960s, Schwartz has been an adherent of the Hanafi school of Sunni Islam since 1997.

Is It Good for the Jews?

"In this polemic, journalist and author Stephen Schwartz confronts the myth of a Jewish lobby head on, asking questions that no one else has dared to pose. What is the "Jewish lobby"? How powerful is it? What was its involvement in the preparations for war in Iraq? Was there really a "cabal" of neoconservative Jews in the administration of George W. Bush? How did AIPAC officials come to be accused, in 2004, of espionage? Above all, what is good for the Jews, and who decides it?" "Ultimately, Schwartz concludes that in today's America a "Jewish lobby" may no longer be necessary. In the face of the threatened collapse of the lobby, he argues, American Jews should openly and proudly assume their proper role as moral and religious exemplars for their fellow Americans and cease acting like a frightened minority."--Jacket.
