    Ofir Gendelman of the ministry’s Arab press section says the professor sent an e-mail via the ministry’s Arabic-language Web site.

    The professor said he planned to teach Hebrew and requested Hebrew literature
    and books about Israel.

    Gendelman says the ministry would be happy to oblige and is awaiting the professor’s mailing address. He refused to divulge the professor’s identity or that of his college because of concerns for his safety. Iraq and Israel have no diplomatic ties.

    Gendelman said today there is “tremendous ignorance in the Arab world about what Israel is, and they simply want to know more.
