A non-partisan organization, CAMERA takes no position with regard to American or Israeli political issues or with regard to ultimate solutions to the Arab-Israeli conflict. CAMERA on the College Campus Increasingly, campuses have been the scene of propagandistic assaults on Israel. Distorted literature, extreme speakers and false, inflammatory images are all too common, creating harmful misperceptions of Israel. This hostile environment can be intimidating to students seeking fair and objective information on Middle East issues. CAMERA provides assistance to students through the CAMERA Campus Activist Project (CCAP) and CAMERA Fellows Program. This includes guidance in finding and connecting with speakers or films, planning and creating events, funding for student groups, and addressing Middle East distortions in campus publications, fliers, rallies and classroom teaching. Students are provided with the support for bravely and publicly defending Israel against hostility and distortions on campus. CAMERA's Core Values: 1. An unshakeable belief in the causes of Zionism and Israel 2. The absolute necessity for truth telling regarding Israel and for confronting lies at every turn 3. The truth must be spoken publicly, with knowledge and confidence “The answer to false speech is not censorship but more true speech. The answer to half-truth is full-truth. The only people who should and do fear CAMERA are those who should and do fear the truth. ...
