    Time to affirm: • World is more menacing when US abdicates leadership. Adversaries tend to fill vacuums. • Allies count. We can’t go it alone. • Democracies are our best partners. • Alliances like NATO serve 🇺🇸 interests. • Defense of core values must be a priority.

    Belgian Jews are feeling increasingly beleaguered, as shown by the recent report on anti-Semitism. By banning ritual slaughter, the Flemish government shows more concern for the welfare of animals than of its Jewish and Muslim communities.

    Religious tests for public office are repugnant to the American constitutional order. Removing Dr. Shafi as Vice Chairman of the Tarrant County Republican Party simply for being Muslim is just plain wrong.

    Dear : You said Iran “can do what they want in Syria.” How does that square with withdrawal from Iran nuke deal, stepped-up sanctions, & support for our regional allies? Last thing we should want is to give Iran free rein anywhere. It could come at a big price for 🇺🇸.

    Mr. President, Iran’s intentions in Syria – including adding to Hezbollah’s deadly arsenal – are a threat to regional stability, Israel’s security, and long list of U.S. strategic interests. What “they want” is the exact opposite of what America stands for

    NASA’s New Horizon has flown 4 billion miles into space previously unexplored. Amazing vision & genius! Vision & genius are also needed to ensure a robust 🇺🇸 future for all. Some long-term challenges loom at home. How about a 2nd NASA—National American Solutions Administration?

    Toughest thing for me in 2018 was my Mom’s death. She got a “Ph.D. in history” from the of Stalin & Hitler. She died believing it was resurfacing in Europe & US, & fearing for the future. People of good will, please help prove that mothers aren’t always right.

    You can support Palestinian statehood – just as we do – without engaging in explicit demonization of one of your closest strategic partners.

    Why I admire Pres. Harry Truman more than ever: Vision. Courage. Grit. Humility. He led 🇺🇸 on global stage—Berlin Airlift/Marshall Plan/NATO/Korea. He ended racial discrimination in military. He overruled State Dept. to recognize Israel. Country always came first, ego last.

    Is it open hunting season on Jews? Radical right & loony left are in bloom. Jihadists are salivating. For Ann Coulter/David Duke/Louis Farrakhan/Tamika Mallory/Alice Walker/Roger Waters/etc, we Jews are termites..globalists..white supremacists..oppressors.. Or is it my paranoia?

    Due to the threat of terrorism, Israel has unfortunately had to innovate in its emergency response practices. We are proud to have facilitated trainings to share these skills with Indian and Sri Lankan first responders.

    Amos Oz had a way with words that captured the imaginations of Israelis and so many others all around the world. He selflessly used his literary talents to advocate for peace. May his memory be for a blessing.

    We surpassed our year-end matching gift challenge goal! Help us hit a new goal of $700,000. Every dollar you give before Dec. 31 will be doubled. Think of how much more AJC can do for Israel and the Jewish people when your gift goes twice as far.
