Engage

Engage is "a resource for the monitoring and the critique of left and liberal antisemitism." The principal activity of Engage is to counter calls to boycott Israeli academia in the UK. Most of the principals of Engage are also active in the Euston Manifesto and Democratiya – both putatively leftist organizations, but firmly neoconservative in orientation. During a 2006 Compass Conference (a New Labour event), Engage, Democratiya and Euston Manifesto shared a table to distribute their literature; the principals of these organizations were present, and they were mostly the same people.
