• Al-Fateh Report Impacts British Prime Minister
  IMPACT-SE’s efforts to affect positive change through its research and fight hatred, intolerance, and incitement against the West and the Jews have had a profound effect. IMPACT-SE presented MP Louise Ellman (Labour) with its report on the Hamas Web Magazine for Children (Al-Fateh) and illustrated the danger it poses for children in the Middle East and Britain. MP Ellman has since called on Prime Minister Gordon Brown and other ministers to block access to the site in the UK, invoking and quoting from the report. The British Home Office is currently looking into her request. See:
