Featuring: On the seventeenth anniversary of the horrific events of September 11, 2001, the United States and the Western world face the same threat by genocidal Islamic terrorists that were responsible for the death of 3,000 Americans on U.S. soil. Since 9/11, al-Qaeda and other Islamist terror groups have struck the U.S. multiple times, in Boston, MA, San Bernardino, CA, and in Orlando, FL, among other places.  Some of the terrorists involved in these attacks first became radicalized through the efforts of the Islamist group called the Muslim Brotherhood (MB).  The MB, which originated in Egypt, seeks to establish a worldwide Islamic Caliphate, and advocates for violent terrorism.  It has spread its tentacles throughout the world, including to the U.S., where it has a number of front groups including…

The Endowment for Middle East Truth invites you to: "The Disappearance and Probable Murder of Jamal Khashoggi" Call-In Number (712) 432-0075 Participant Code: 397784 Recently, Jamal Khashoggi, a citizen of Saudi Arabia and a resident of the U.S., walked into the Saudi consulate in Istanbul on October 2, intending to get paperwork that would allow him to marry his Turkish fiancée. He hasn't been seen in public since. Khashoggi was a former Saudi royal insider who became a critic of the current Saudi leadership, especially Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. In the U.S., Khashoggi became a columnist for the Washington Post. Saudi Arabia has claimed that Khashoggi left the consulate unharmed. However, Turkish authorities claim they have audio and visual evidence that shows Jamal Khashoggi was tortured and killed inside the consulate in Istanbul. According to CNN, a foreign intelligence service has found the nature of the evidence, which was provided in a briefing from Turkish officials, to be "shocking and disgusting." The Washington Post has reported of that evidence…

The Endowment for Middle East Truth invites you to a Phone Seminar: "Jews Make the Best Demons: 'Palestine' and the Jewish Question" Wednesday, December 19th, 2018 12:00pm - 1:00p.m. (Eastern Time) Call-In Number (712) 432-0075 Participant Code: 397784    Featured guest speaker:  Eric Rozenman   Shortly before murdering 11 Jews at Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh on October 27, the accused killer posted online that “Jews are the spawn of Satan” and derided the United States as “Z.O.G.”—Zionist-occupied government. A few days after the mass murder, Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan reinforced his high-profile antisemitism—bigotry some members of Congress and members-elect have difficulty rejecting—by again denouncing “Satanic Jews” and “devilish Zionists.” On October 22, New English Review Press published Eric Rozenman’s new book, Jews Make the Best Demons: “Palestine” and the Jewish Question. In it Rozenman, now at the Washington, D.C.-based Jewish Policy Center and former editor of B’nai B’rith’s International Jewish Monthly and of the Washington Jewish Week, spotlights how anti-Zionism has become the gateway drug for resurgent antisemitism. He also demonstrates the…

The Endowment for Middle East Truth invites you to a Capitol Hill Seminar: "Trump's Palestinian-Israeli Peace Plan: What's in It, What It Means" Thursday, February 7, 2019 12:00pm - 1:00p.m. (Eastern Time)0 US Capitol Visitor's Center Featured guest speakers: RSVP HERE Ever since he was elected, President Trump has told us that he has a long awaited “Ultimate Deal” to finally bring peace between the Israelis and the Palestinians. Rumors and speculation abound about what exactly is in the details. We have seen that certainly since the administration of President Bill Clinton, each president, and several Israeli Prime Ministers have tried to offer the Palestinians progressively more and more land, and each time the Palestinians have walked away from the table, only to be met with a renewed round of violence.
