Antisemitism
Fighting the new anti-Semitism
By Amnon Rubinstein
December 2, 2003
Anti-Semitism's historical foundation
runs deep, and refuses to die even in the wake of the Holocaust,
the victory of Zionism and the establishment of the Jewish state;
but without doubt, Israel's harsh response to the war of terror
being waged against it by the Palestinians - closures, lengthy curfews,
daily Palestinian fatalities, suffering at check points, damage
to property - has given rise to a deep emotional reaction not only
to (and within) it, but also against the Jews who support it.

Israel in the Media
CNN in Perspective
By Neil Lazarus
"Aren't the Israelis
and Palestinians both terrorizing each other?"
Ted Turner

Time-Warner CEO Ted Turner proved to be the final straw for pro-Israel
campaigners in the relentless and unfavorable presentation of Israel
in the mass media over the past 20 months.
Fact Files
Activists and educators in Israel Advocacy need
to recall so much information, in order to substantiate their position
on many subjects. The professional media person, or speaker is well
read, well informed and well rehearsed: it's a tall order and the
volunteer and lay person cannot possibly compete, unless he or she
makes full use of auxiliary tools.
