To add to the two source you reference above, the JCPA have just published my detailed report on the topic. It can be seen online at: http://www.jcpa.org/JCPA/Templates/ShowPage.asp?DRIT=3&DBID=1&LNGID=1&TMID=111&FID=253&PID=0&IID=2054&TTL=Online_Antisemitism_2.0._%22Social_Antisemitism%22_on_the_%22Social_Web%22* Given the nature of this site, I will also mention that I have been trying unsuccessfully for three year to get funding to continue work in this area and to set up and organisation to provide the technical know-how and training for the Jewish community. This is essential work, yet so far all I've got is a couple of free lunches. This may change by the end of the year (and I hope it does) but donors in the community need to seriously think about the financing of online activity and the need for long term education and community based experts rather than spending money on quick fixes like one off consultations or outsourcing specific projects. Dr Andre Oboler Dan, thanks for the post on this important topic.
