A petition aiming to expel CAMERA from the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE) convention is based on misleading claims and seeks to silence Jewish perspectives in education. CAMERA responds, standing firm in its commitment to promoting accurate, inclusive resources for educators.
Some of the most dangerous actors engaged in Hamas’ cynical propaganda campaign come from the ranks of medical professionals who have entered the Gaza war zone to care for the injured and sick. Meet Mark Perlmutter, an anti-Israel activist who uses his medical credentials and Jewish connection (a Jewish father) to propagandize against Israel.
In the LA Times, Rabbi Aryeh Cohen castigates the alleged sins of the American Jewish community for "indiscriminately support[ing] the state of Israel, even though in January the International Court of Justice found it plausible that the Israeli government was committing genocide." In fact, that the ICJ in no way determined that Israel is plausibly committing genocide.
The Associated Press and Los Angeles Times neglect to correct erroneous reporting that U.S. activist Rachel Corrie was killed while she was protesting a home demolition in the Gaza Strip. Court documents show the bulldozer was clearing brush used in attacks against troops.

Jamaal Bowman, the anti-Israel Congressman from New York's 16th Congressional District, has lost his primary fight. Leading news outlets like POLITICO echoed claims that Bowman's loss was due to the influence of the pro-Israel lobby. But as CAMERA tells Washington Examiner Magazine, the truth is otherwise, and Bowman is just one in a long line of anti-Israel politicians to blame AIPAC for his electoral loss.

The Board’s questionable handling of the public engagement process over moderating the term "shaheed" does not inspire confidence that these issues are being fairly or fully considered. With upcoming Board recommendations on moderating the phrase “from the river to the sea” and how to handle the use of the term “Zionists” when compared to criminality, it is clear that the Board seeks to have an enormous influence on online expression relating to Israel and antisemitism. As antisemitism and anti-Israel extremism surge, this should be concerning to all.
To help with its coverage of Israel, the New York Times has hired: someone who had praised Hitler; someone who denied Hamas has murdered Israeli civilians; someone who has said her objectivity about Israel was out the window; and now, Bora Erden, another committed anti-Israel activist.
