The BDS crowd was taken by surprise by how fast McGraw-Hill acted after
I reported that one of their textbooks included the famous Map That Lies. McGraw-Hill properly
withdrew the book from circulation and said it would destroy all copies of the textbook, offering refunds.
Now they are trying to pressure McGraw-Hill executives to change their minds. The Israel-haters set up a page to automatically write letters to McGraw-Hill executives and to tweet what they've done.
Luckily,
that page can also be used to email the executives a thank you for how well they responded to the discovery of
lying, anti-Israel propaganda in their textbook,
Click on their page and
write a letter of appreciation to McGraw-Hill using the BDSers' own tools.
The chances of McGraw Hill changing their minds is essentially zero, but supporting them in their decision can create positive dividends in the future. And it won't take too many "thank yous" to counter the dozens of insulting anti-Israel letters they are receiving. People like to hear compliments, after all, and McGraw-Hill acted like a company that cares about the truth in their textbooks - a very admirable trait indeed.
So take the three minutes to write the letter and thank them. The BDSers set the page up, the least you can do to thank them would be to use it.
The BDSers have
a lot of other letter writing campaigns as well, especially to state legislators who are considering bills to condemn or outlaw boycotts of Israel.
Those same tools can be used to counter their lies and tell the legislators the truth. So click away!
