“To leave memory behind is to eradicate Judaism,” declared Daniel Gordis in his State of Jewish World address at the opening plenary of the AJC Global Forum.
AJC is deeply disappointed that the U.S. Supreme Court negated a family’s request to designate Jerusalem, Israel as their son’s birthplace on his U.S. passport.
AJC presented its Moral Courage Award posthumously today to Zidan Seef, an Israeli Druze policeman who was fatally wounded while trying to stop a terrorist attack on a Jerusalem synagogue last November.
