Jerusalem Post: What do North America Jewish organizations think of UAE-Israel deal?
August 14, 2020
The Jewish Democratic Council of America (JDCA) noted their relief “to see President Trump’s dangerous gamble on unilateral Israeli annexation of the West Bank come to an end.”
“By taking annexation off the table, today’s Israeli government announcement addresses the problem created by the Trump administration’s failure to oppose it from the outset,” JDCA board chair Ron Klein said in a statement. “We welcome the establishment of diplomatic relations between Israel and the UAE and urge the Republican Party to join the Democratic Party in reaffirming support for a negotiated two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which is essential to Israel’s future as a secure Jewish and democratic state.”
