The IPS was financed by three rich Jews, going on to become one of the big five independent think tanks in Washington. The organization focuses on U.S. foreign policy, domestic policy, human rights, international economics, and national security. Members of the IPS played key roles in the civil rights and anti-war movements of the 1960s, in the women's and environmental movements of the 1970s, and in the peace, anti-Apartheid, and anti-intervention movements of the 1980s.
The Wiki chooses to claim that it has been alleged to be left-wing. I choose to claim that the allegations are obviously true. The Wiki makes its claims in order to make people think that statements are untrue or, at least questionable without telling the lie direct. The Wiki is a propaganda machine. It does not mention that the money comes from Jews. One has to follow their links to reveal the truth they want hidden. NB that there is not the slightest hint of opposition to the Apartheid in Israel, the Stolen Land; one law for Jews, another for us.
Several of the inmates are Jews. Paul Eisen accuses Phyllis Bennis of being a Jew but alleges that she turned nasty then got kicked out of an Arab organisation. Believe Mr Eisen if you want.
Institute for Policy Studies
ex Wiki
The Institute is considered a
left-wing[4][5][6][7][8]
organization by some.[20]
Harvey
Klehr, professor of politics and history at
Emory University, in his 1988 book Far Left of Center: The American
Radical Left Today said that IPS "serves as an intellectual nerve center for
the radical movement, ranging from
nuclear and anti-intervention issues to support for Marxist insurgencies".[21]
Joshua Muravchik, a former scholar with the
American Enterprise Institute has also accused the institute of communist
sympathies.[22]
Furthermore, it has been accused by the FBI of being a "think factory" that
helps to "train extremists who incite violence in U.S. cities, and whose
educational research serves as a cover for intrigue, and political agitation."[23]
In 1974, the Institute created an "Organizing Committee for the Fifth Estate" as part of its "Center for National Security Studies" which published (and still publishes) the magazine CounterSpy. CounterSpy has in turn been the subject of scrutiny by officials and intelligence agencies, who claim that the magazine's "driving force"[24] was ex-CIA agent and alleged Cuban/KGB agent[25][26][27] Philip Agee, and was accused by US President George H.W. Bush[28] and others[29] of leading to the murder of the then CIA Station Chief in Greece, Richard S. Welch.[11]
In his book The KGB and Soviet Disinformation: An Insider's View
Ladislav Bittman, a former
Státní bezpečnost[30]
agent who worked in misinformation operations, covered the IPS's role in the
Soviet intelligence network.[31][32]
Bittman argued that IPS was one of the several liberal think tanks that
acted as pro-Soviet
propaganda agencies, but his own assertions may have been
counterpropaganda themselves.[33]
Brian Crozier, director of the London-based
Institute for the Study of Conflict, described IPS as the "perfect
intellectual front for Soviet activities which would be resisted if they
were to originate openly from the
KGB".[34]

They sound convincingly leftist.
