Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith

B'nai B'rith was instrumental in gaining U.S. support for the nascent Zionist state of Israel in the late 1940s.

Winning wars in the Information Age largely depends on winning the battle for public opinion. Thus the opinion-shaping role of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) when it attacked a high profile California professor for his criticism of Israeli policy in Palestine.
