U.S. Jewish Leader Wants World Conference to Fight Anti-Semitism
(Times of Israel) Malcolm Hoenlein, CEO of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, called on Tuesday for an international conference on anti-Semitism, saying the "intensifying challenge" of rising anti-Jewish incidents around the world required global mobilization. Hoenlein said reports of hate crimes were on the rise in both the U.S. and Europe. "There must be a universal policy of zero tolerance of anti-Semitism, racism, and bigotry," he said.
