SUPPLEMENTAL STATEMENT
Question 1:
Foundation for the Defense of Democracies, Inc. (''FDD") was incorporated in New
York on April 24, 2001 as EMET: An Educational Initiative, Inc. ( .. EMET''). The initial purpose of
EMET was to provide education meant to enhance Israel's image in North America and the public's
understanding ofissues affecting Israeli-Arab relations. The attached brochure illustrates EMET's
initial purposes, and the methods by which EMET was to attain such goals. These goals continue as
part ofFDD's purpose.
As a result of the terrorist attacks on Tuesday, September 11, 2001, the Board of
Directors determined that EMET' s mission should be expanded. The Board has recognized the sad
fact that Israel is no longer the only democracy in the world facing the scourge of terrorism. The
United States and other democratic countries all over the world are all at risk. In addition, freedom-
loving countries are currently ill-equipped to deal with this menace, as the concept of purposely
destroying innocent lives is completely foreign to the ideas and beliefs which we hold so dear.
Accordingly, the name and focus ofthe organization were changed to reflect these
unfortunate times. The Board ofDirectors has determined that the organization would better serve
this country and all other democratic societies by developing research in the area of global terrorism
and providing such research to the public. By serving as a "think tank" on terrorism, the
organization will strive to strengthen American resolve and increase the general knowledge regarding
terrorism, develop educational materials on the eradication of terrorism everywhere in the world, to
achieve peace in the Middle East and elsewhere. On October 22, 2001, the Board of Directors
therefore authorized the organization to change its name to Foundation for the Defense of
Democracies, Inc. and developed the following mission statement:
Foundation for the Defense of Democracies conducts research and
provides education on international terrorism - the most serious threat to the
United States and other free, democratic nations. FDD produces independent
analyses of global terrorism's intentions and capabilities, as well as of the
historical, cultural, philosophical and ideological factors that drive terrorism, and
which threaten democracies and the individual freedoms guaranteed within
democratic societies.
Non-partisan and non-profit, FDD promotes informed debate about
policies and positions that will most effectively eradicate the scourge of
international terrorism. In addition, FDD works to improve education about
democracies, and to help promote democracy in the Middle East and other
troubled regions.

SUPPLEMENTAL STATEMENT
The Board of Directors and Officers ofFDD believe that:
Terrorism -which can most precisely be defined as deliberate acts
of violence undertaken against unarmed civilians for the purpose of
instilling terror- is a crime against humanity. It is never justifiable,
and must never be condoned or tolerated by civilized peoples.
Terrorism de-legitimizes the cause of those who employ it.
}> Those who employ terrorism to destroy the American way oflife,
and those who seek to destroy freedom and democracy elsewhere in
the world, must be decisively defeated.
)i> Regimes that financet host or otherwise aid and abet terrorism are in
a state ofhostili ty with all free and democratic nations, and with all
civilized peoples, whatever their religion or nationality, and
they live.
)i> Israel is part of the solution to fighting terrorism, not part of the
problem. For decades, Israel has been on the front line of the war
against terrorism. Given its experience and intelligence-gathering
capabilities, Israel is America's most reliable and valuable ally in
this conflict.
)- The way to achieve peace in the Middle East is not by
compromising Israel's existence as the only democracy in the
region, but rather by defeating terrorism. Until terrorism is
eradicated, any Arab leader who dares attempt to enter into a
realistic, lasting peace agreement with Israel can expect to suffer the
same fate as Egyptian President Anwar Sadat.

FDD is a nonprofit organization. and is not organized for the private gain of any
individual. The activities to be undertaken by FDD will be developed by its professional staff, with
the support and guidance of its philanthropic leadership. FDD will strive to communicate a clear,
concise and focused message, which once established will be adhered to consistently. By way of
illustration only, FDD initiatives may include a speakers' bureau, discussion forums, creation of op-
ed pieces, educational outreach to Jewish and non-Jewish communities as well as college campuses
and secondary schools, creation of fiction and/or nonfiction books, a play, television programs and/or
a film. Topics to be explored may include, among others, a study of Jihadism, the militant and
radical fonn of Islam, the fomtS of tenorism to which we may be exposed, which we can
utilize to eradicate terrorism, the Israeli-Arab conflict in general, the spirit and image ofisrael, the

importance of a Jewish state, the unique relationship between Israel and the United States, and
Israel's status as the only democracy in the Middle East.
On April 24, 2001, FDD announced the creation of its frrst initiative, the EMET
Fe1Jows Program, which was conducted in cooperation with Tel Aviv University and Hillel, The
Foundation for Jewish Campus Life. The Program sponsored the education of 40 college students
representing 26 North American campuses at The Jaffe Center for Strategic Studies at Tel Aviv
University. The goal of the Program was to enable the Fellows to provide educational outreach on
their own college campuses throughout the United States upon their return. The Program is
anticipated to be expanded for the Swnmer of2002, to include Jewish as well as Christian students.
The EMET Fellows Program has initiated a secondary program, entitled Caravan For
Democracy, which will be conducted in cooperation with The Jewish National Fund and
Mediawatch. The Caravan For Democracy will sponsor speakers and other programs on various
college campuses in North America. FDD has budgeted $100,000 during fiscal year 2002 for this
program.
In January, 2002 FDD undertook an educational mission to Israel by several board
members, including former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Jack Kemp and former
Senator Frank Lautenberg. This trip will be followed by a media tour in the United States in
furtherance ofFDD's message.
The officers and directors of FDD have appeared on various radio and television
programs and have been interviewed by several of the nations top journalists, in order to promote
FDD's message; a list of such appearances through December 19, 2001 is attached hereto. In
addition, FDD has prepared a number of "White Papers", .. Decision Memoranda' and "Devil's
Advocate Analyses" for distribution to various media and opinion leaders, in order to frame the
current debates regarding terrorism and to maintain FDD's media visibility. Sample copies of such
documents are attached.
FDD has produced its first "VNR" (video news release), which featured an Israeli
hospital where, even during the intifada, doctors perfonn state-of-the-art heart surgery on infants
from around the world - including infants from Palestinian territories. The VNR was released to
various local news organizations throughout the country, and, as of December 19, 2001. was
broadcast in 14 different metropolitan areas, reaching an estimated 441,500 households; a Broadcast
Monitoring Report as ofDecember 24, 2001 is attached. FDD is in the process of producing at least
three other VNRs, which are scheduled to be released during 2002.
Finally, FDD is considering the development of a television series or movie, currently
titled 'The Roots of Terror" to be broadcast on PBS, and/or in classrooms throughout the country.
Robert Chi tester, creator of many other PBS specials, may direct the project.
