Leibler believes that Greenblatt has not spent sufficient time in Israel, and should do so, seeing what it is enduring for himself rather than choosing to associate with people and ideas that are "undermining" Israel and its national security.
"Israel is standing alone in a sea of barbarism", Leibler says, and if Jewish leaders in the Diaspora stand aside and fail to stick up for Israel against the leftist and Palestinian narrative, "history will condemn them."
He is askance at the failure of American Jewish leaders strongly and unitedly to stress to Obama that Israel must have defensible borders, and fears that Obama might still give Israel an unacceptable "leaving present".

DeleteJStreet-ADL connection should come as no surprise. The new director of ADL, Greenblatt, is a former Obama appointee. JStreet is a DNC creation to give cover to Obama's antiIsrael agenda. Of course he seeks closer ties to JStreet, a group he worked with during his tenure with Obama.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment, Elise. You will notice IJL's strictures against Obama in the video.

We are disappointed by this bill, the Knesset’s passage of a law targeting left-leaning human rights organizations, and concerned about its impact on Israel’s democracy.
