On Douglas' radio show, Weir 'dismissed allegations that he was a racist, did not challenge his repeated assertions of Jewish control of the world, and did not protest when he played a speech by former Ku Klux Klan grand wizard David Duke.' The anti-Zionist group U.S. Weir has partnered with white supremacists and Holocaust deniers including Christian Identity leader and conspiracy theorist Clayton Douglas and American Free Press, both designated as hate advocates by the Southern Poverty Law Center. She has asserted that the original libel was itself also true. Writing in CounterPunch, Weir said that Israel harvests Palestinian organs which has been described as an updating of the medieval blood libel that Jews harvest the blood of gentile children. She has described the Jewish 'race' as 'an object of hatred to all the peoples among whom it has established itself'. According to The Tablet, she has 'complained about there being too many Jews on the Supreme Court'. She has alleged that Nazi and Zionist leaders collaborated during World War II. Weir has alleged that Israel's US supporters are responsible for involving America in wars. Weir's official biography says her activism draws on her history of involvement in the American Civil Rights Movement, her work in the Peace Corps, and her childhood in a military family.

After returning to the U.S., she founded If Americans Knew. After several months, she decided that 'this was perhaps the most covered-up story I had ever seen' and quit her job in order to visit the West Bank and Gaza, where she wrote about her encounters with Palestinian suffering and with the 'incredible arrogance, cruelty, selfishness' of Israelis. Wanting access to 'full information', she 'began to look for additional reports on the Internet'.

At the time she was 'the editor of a small weekly newspaper in Sausalito, California', and noticed that news reports on the conflict 'were highly Israeli-centric'. Weir traces her interest in the Israeli–Palestinian conflict to the autumn of 2000, when the Second Intifada began. Due to allegations of antisemitism, she has been shunned by parts of the anti-Zionist movement. She is known for her critical views toward Israel and its supporters and for critiquing media coverage of Israel.

She is the founder and executive director of the nonprofit organization If Americans Knew (IAK), president of the Council for the National Interest (CNI), and author of Against Our Better Judgment: The Hidden History of How the U.S. President of the Council for the National InterestĪlison Weir is an American activist and writer known for her interest in the Israeli–Palestinian conflict.
