Jewish Leaders Invited to WH as Dems Face Accusations of Anti-Semitism
[Daily Caller] The Trump White House will host more than 70 Jewish community leaders to discuss "pertinent issues" on Tuesday as the Democratic Party faces accusations of anti-Semitism.American Jewish leaders recently received an invitation to meet with key White House officials for a "discussion" "pertinent issues impacting the community," Jewish Insider reported on Friday. A White House official confirmed to The Daily Caller that the event would be taking place. "On Tuesday, April 16, the White House will host more than 70 Jewish non-profit leaders, business leaders, and rabbis to meet with senior administration officials. This is part of our ongoing and regular engagement with community and business leaders," the official told the Caller. The official did not say which issues would be discussed during the meeting, although it will occur as President Donald Trump prepares to release his plan to bring peace to the Middle East. The plan has been one of the key projects for White House senior aide and the president’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, and few details have been made public. The meeting will also take place as freshman congresswomen in the Democratic Party face accusations of anti-Semitism. In 2012, Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar accused Israel of "hypnotizing the world," and since taking office has used several anti-Semitic tropes to denounce Israeli influence on American politics. Posted by: Besoeker 2019-04-16 |
