Rep. Broun Must Reject Endorsement from Anti-Israel Ron Paul

Listed in: Israel, NJDC News, Press Releases

Keyak: “Republicans who seek and flaunt Paul’s endorsement cannot reasonably claim to be a friend of Israel or the American Jewish community. Period.”

WASHINGTON, DC- The National Jewish Democratic Council (NJDC) today demanded that Georgia Senate candidate Representative Paul Broun (R-GA) reject the endorsement of anti-Israel former Representative Ron Paul. NJDC Executive Director Aaron Keyak said:

“During his House tenure, Ron Paul pushed for an end to U.S. aid to Israel, bashed Israel on Iranian television, and used his national platform to push his agenda during the 2012 campaign. Now Paul is building on his anti-Israel legacy by founding a think tank with ‘anti-Semites’ and ‘9/11 truthers,’ according to a report published today. Republicans need to make clear that there is no room for Ron Paul in their Party and reject his ideologically tainted money—and Georgia Senate candidate Representative Paul Broun should lead the way. Republicans who seek and flaunt Paul’s endorsement cannot reasonably claim to be a friend of Israel or the American Jewish community. Period.”
