The opening as it read in 2010

Reut Institute is a policy group in Tel Aviv designed to provide real-time long-term strategic decision-support to the Government of Israel although informed commentators say they are largely ignored and irrelevant to the Israeli decision-making process.1 Established in January 2004 by Gidi Grinstein and a team of founders, Reut is a non-partisan non-profit policy team that supplies its services pro-bono solely to the Government of Israel.2 Reut's current focus areas are National Security and Top15: Socio-Economics. They are described as "very influential and highly respected" by Ido Aharoni, spokesman to Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni , who noted that virtually every key ministry in the government has utilized Reut’s services. On February 11, 2010, the Reut Institute reported that violence had failed to achieve Israel’s ends and had produced worldwide revulsion.3
