20.01.2005 A Palestinian exhibition at the South Australian Museum has angered the state's Jewish community, which claims parts of the display are "patently wrong".
Treasures of Palestine is meant to be a cultural and historical exhibition but two-thirds of it is not, Jewish community president Norman Schueler claimed.
"It has exhibits which aren't about culture and some (exhibits) are patently wrong," he said. "Some of the claims of their origin are open to debate."
In a letter to museum director Tim Flannery, Mr Schueler asked the museum to reconsider staging the exhibit.
The letter states: "Some of the dishonest and tendentious material . . . and graphics depicting Israelis as quasi-Nazis appears calculated to incite anti-Israel hatred and, by extension, antisemitism."
