New York, NY, February 5, 2025 ... ADL (the Anti-Defamation League) issued a statement following yesterday's meeting at the White House between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Trump:
It was significant that in the White House yesterday, Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Trump discussed critical priorities including the release of all hostages, Israel's security needs and steps for regional engagement.
U.S. involvement -- in coordination with Israel and regional partners -- will be essential for long term rebuilding and governance of Gaza. However, any plan must take into account Israel’s security needs and the well-being of Palestinian civilians in Gaza.
We continue to hope for a day when Israelis and Palestinians can live side-by-side with security, dignity and peace.
