Speaker: Melanie Phillips\n\nAffiliation: Journalist and Author\n\nTitle: "The Demoralisation of Britain: Moral Relativism, the Church of England and the Jews"\n\nConvener: Dr. Charles Asher Small, Founder and Executive Director, Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy (ISGAP)\n\nLocation: Yale University, New Haven, CT\n\nDate: November 13, 2008\n\nDescription: Melanie Phillips maintains that while there has always been anti-Jewish sentiments in Britain, after the Holocaust, such sentiments became taboo. She notes that now, antisemitic rhetoric is, once again, becoming mainstream and that this revival of crude anti-Jewish libels is being fueled and legitimized by the obsessive vilification and demonization of Israel.
