Rabbi Guttentag, the event’s initiator, is quoted saying, "Our aim is to make the Big Tent a massive springboard to mobilise many more grass roots activists who are willing to take on the challenge of reversing the trend of deligitimisation of Israel and to ensure Israel's image is honestly and positively projected to the many people who have been exposed to anti Israel propaganda and media bias".
The event has the backing of many major community organisations including the Board of Deputies, the Jewish Leadership Council, the Zionist Federation, Manchester Zionist Central Council, Jewish Representative Council of Greater Manchester and Region, UJIA, StandWithUs UK and the political Friends of Israel Groups, as well as many Christian groups who so loyally stand up for Israel.
Can you guess from what sector of Israel, one that is very much in the news, one that is almost at the heart, if not kishkes, of Israel's hasbara concern, it seems a representative will not be attending as a lecturer?
I have made inquiries to confirm my suspicion despite this claim:
EVERYONE who believes in Israel is welcome inside THE BIG TENT FOR ISRAEL
Will "everyone" be there?
