Author Information

David Littman is a British historian and widely venerated human rights activist who has represented several NGOs at the United Nations in Geneva. As a young man, Littman was at the center of a 1961 clandestine operation (codenamed Operation Mural by the Mossad) which succeeded in bringing 530 Jewish children from Morocco to Israel, via holidays in Switzerland, when Jews could not leave the country at the insistence of Gamal Abdal Nasser and the Arab League. From 1986 onward, he has appeared at the United Nations representing a variety of NGOs, including the World Union for Progressive Judaism (WUPJ), Association of World Citizens (AWC), World Federalist Movement (WFM) and the Association for World Education (AWE) - to press for justice on many subjects: Soviet Refuseniks, Christian slaves in the Sudan, women and minorities under Shariah law, particularly on taboo subjects such as female genital mutilation, honor killings and forced 9-year old girl marriages in Iran and other OIC countries. He is married to the noted historian Bat Ye'or, author of groundbreaking books on Jews and Christians under Islam, dhimmitude and Eurabia, with her latest work Europe, Globalization, and the Coming of the Universal Caliphate.
