Newsroom: IMPACT-SE European Tour - November 2009
 |
|
IMPACT-SE set out in November 2009 on a two-week tour to the
UK, Belgium and Germany with the dual goals of raising awareness
and demonstrating to European parliamentarians, policymakers,
media and public the true
nature of Hamas and its anti-Western, anti-Israeli and
anti-Semitic ideology, in order to counter calls in Europe
for dialog and engagement with the movement. In addition,
IMPACT-SE set out to promote the Tunisian
schoolbooks and their educational approach as a potential
positive role model for other Arab and Muslim countries. IMPACT-SE presented its findings at the British
House of Commons, the European Parliament, and at a number
of universities and research institutes, and held a successful
press conference in Berlin which received very positive and
extensive coverage. The goals of the tour were thus achieved
at the political, academic and media/public opinion levels.
Sheikh Dr. Muhammad Al- Hussaini, who presented alongside
IMPACT-SE team in London, and former jihadist and present-day
Muslim reformer Dr. Tawfik Hamid, who was invited by IMPACT-SE
to join its team in Brussels and Germany, contributed greatly
to the success of the events and the interest shown in them
by policymakers, civil society and the press.
