  President Carter Uses Book Tour To Influence '08 US Presidential Elections:

Help Counteract Misinformation By Distributing SWC Brochure To University Students

 

  “The main reason I came to Iowa is to make sure you knew you could shape an outcome in the 2008 presidential election.… As long as American politicians are seen as 'knee-jerk supporters' of Israel, the country’s role as the principal Mideast peace broker will be endangered.”
– President Jimmy Carter, April 18, 2007, University of Iowa


As you know, the Simon Wiesenthal Center recently launched its Campus Outreach initiative to support students primarily on North American university campuses who are confronted with campaigns to demonize and delegitimize Israel. 

Unfortunately, there is no sign of this letting up.  Adding to this is the university lecture tour by former President Jimmy Carter to promote Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid, his book filled with fabrications and myths about Israel.

After hearing from students across North America that there is a need on campuses to combat this continuous one-sided bias against Israel, the Center’s Campus Outreach Department has created Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid – Major Fabrications and Distortions, a brochure addressing the major distortions featured in President Carter’s book.

Additionally, Simon Wiesenthal Center Campus Advocates, our campus student activists, will be distributing our new brochure at the University of California, Berkeley when President Carter speaks there on May 2, 2007.

As President Carter travels around speaking to young people, help us give our young Jewish students the tools to fight back.

Please help us distribute this   brochure and support our efforts by emailing this to all of your friends and family.

Together we can make a difference!

Please take a minute to forward this important message on to your friends and family, especially those with college students!
