Network member, Ahmad Mansour was shocked at the anti-Semitism he discovered in the Muslim community when he moved to Berlin nine years ago from Israel.
Ahmad achieved a major milestone in his efforts to raise awareness about the issue with the airing of a public television documentary, Anti-Semitism Today: How hostile is Germany toward Jews? on October 28, 2013. Ahmad served as an advisor for the film, which aired on the DasErste station (which has an estimated 4 million viewers).

The film, which is only available in German at this time, shows Ahmad describing his encounters with prejudice and explaining why he believes anti-Semitism exists among Muslim youth today. It draws a clear and disturbing link to the influence of Arab media in promoting this hate. The film also showcases Ahmad’s work with the Heroes Project, where he mentors young Muslim men in Berlin to break with extremism and become part of Europe’s tolerant, multi-cultural society.
