The official About MTF page states: “The Maccabee Task Force was created in 2015 to combat the disturbing spread of Antisemitism on college campuses. We believe the BDS movement is at the forefront of this troubling trend. We maintain that BDS is an Antisemitic movement that crosses the line from legitimate criticism of Israel into the dangerous demonization of Israel and its supporters. We are determined to help students combat this hate by bringing them the strategies and resources they need to tell the truth about Israel.” The same official page records [[David Brog]] as Executive Director, and states that the Maccabee Task Force is “an effort launched in 2015 to combat the anti-Israel BDS movement.” It further records that he previously sat on the Board of Directors of [[Christians United for Israel]] (CUFI), and that he served as executive director for its first ten years.
