ISGAP Fellows Reject Antisemitic Tropes in Amnesty Report
https://isgap.org/post/2022/04/isgap-rejects-amnestys-report-on-israel/
“ISGAP strongly rejects the biased antisemitic tropes found within Amnesty International’s recent report, “Israel’s Apartheid Against Palestinians: Cruel System of Domination and Crime Against Humanity.” The bending of history and facts in this report is a prime example of how contemporary antisemitism manifests itself, with the sole goal of dismantling the only Jewish State.” ISGAP […]

Richard Landes, Chair, Council of Scholars SPME Many have commented on the systematic effort of Amnesty International’s Apartheid Report to stigmatize Israel, to stretch beyond recognition the definition of “Apartheid” and “race” in order to accuse Israel of “crimes against humanity.” It is worth noting that this effort is unparalleled in Amnesty’s research on other countries, where […]

The South African political landscape has been experiencing tumultuous turns since the dawn of our democracy, turns of which have become definitive moments of our nation.

https://isgap.org/flashpoint/antisemitism-anti-zionism-jewish-students-and-failed-policies/
A new article at The Washington Post by Molly Harris claims that liberal Jewish students are being “actively excluded” from social justice organizations. Jewish college students will find that those active in BDS are also active in other left-wing groups and “as a Zionist this can be extremely disheartening.” Her article goes to the heart […]
The Roots of Anti-Israel Attitudes
https://isgap.org/flashpoint/the-roots-of-anti-israel-attitudes/
Israel is demonized and singled out by the media and international bodies. Israel is accused of excessive use of force, despite its great efforts to minimize collateral damage, while the massacres by the Assad regime or the heavy collateral damage resulting from Saudi attacks in Yemen are hardly mentioned. The EU decided to mark the […]
