Last week, a pro-Israel group called The Israel Group launched an important campaign in the broader fight back against the anti-Israel hostility that pervades high-profile media and educational institutions.
The Israel Group, which describes itself as “a nonprofit that protects Israel in the diaspora by developing and launching initiatives to cripple the [Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions] (BDS) movement against at Israel” and features many powerful Jewish/pro-Israel individuals on the organization’s board of advisors, began rolling out its “Battle Against Wikipedia.” According to The Israel Group, Wikipedia is the fifth most trafficked website but is ranked number one in terms of both global online educational resources, more generally, and dissemination of anti-Israel propaganda, in particular. The Israel Group’s website describes the importance of the project:
