Never Support WJC Again

Jonathan Tobin relates an interview by World Jewish Congress president Edgar Bronfman with the Jewish Telegraphic Agency

[World Jewish Congress President Edgar] Bronfman dug himself an even deeper hole when he discussed the motivations for his letter [to the US President against the Israeli security fence] with the Jewish Telegraphic Agency by talking about his distaste for Jews who live in Judea, Samaria and Gaza. Bronfman said "a more effective" tactic for the Palestinians would have been to attack only the settlements and not Jews inside pre-1967 Israel.

"If the Palestinian suicide bombers only went to the settlements … then the whole world would have had a case against Israel and there would have been a two-state solution by now," he said. "Instead, they sent them into Israel proper, which is ghastly."
