American Jewish Committee (AJC) praised the U.S. Attorney’s Office for successfully appealing a judge’s decision to allow a man accused of plotting a violent attack on a Jewish assisted-living facility to stay at home until his trial.
“The robust interest in our online education, advocacy, and diplomacy inspires us to develop fresh programs each week,” said AJC CEO David Harris. “And with a social media platform of over 2.3 million followers, our global reach continues to expand.”
In the Jewish tradition, we are commanded to remember (zachor) and not to forget (lo tishkach). This week we commemorate Yom HaShoah, the Day of Holocaust Remembrance.
“The world body’s endless hypocrisy and double standards toward Israel are staggering,” said AJC CEO David Harris. “Of all the situations in the world in which territory is disputed, the UN chooses only to focus on Israel. Why? We call on Secretary General Guterres to denounce this outrageous assault on the Jewish state.
