The Jewish Virtual Library (JVL, formerly known as JSOURCE)[1] is an online encyclopedia published by the American foreign policy analyst Mitchell Bard's non-profit organization American–Israeli Cooperative Enterprise (AICE).
[4][5] The Jewish Virtual Library relies on history books, scientific studies, various encyclopedias, archives, polls, maps, and material from museums for its bibliography, as well as Wikipedia articles.
According to the JVL, it received permission to use materials from the Library of Congress, the American Jewish Historical Society, the Anti-Defamation League, the Simon Wiesenthal Center, the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Prime Minister's Office, Rabbi Joseph Telushkin and other resources.
One has options to click on, such as history, women, biography, politics, Israel, maps, and Judaic Treasures at the Library of Congress, with each launching a person into a different realm.
The site is extremely well put together.Also in 2002, Karen Evans of Indiana State University praised the online library for its "easily accessible, balanced information".
The only people who will swallow Davis' myths and facts are the true believers, the naive, or those seeking funds for their electoral campaigns.American journalist Donald Neff in his Summer 2002 Journal of Palestine Studies review entitled Rewriting History of the 2001 edition was equally critical:[15] The Arab-Israeli conflict is littered with propaganda masquerading as information.
He is listed as sponsor of the latest Myths and Facts and chairman of the board of AICE.In 2021, the Wikipedia community reached a consensus to prohibit the use of the JVL as a source for most situations, citing concerns about its accuracy and pro-Israel bias.
