New York, December 13 (RHC)-- In the U.S., demonstrators gathered in front of the office of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) to protest what’s known as the “deadly exchange” between Israeli and U.S. law enforcement agencies.
The ADL has come under fire from activists for sponsoring law enforcement training exchanges between the two countries.
One of the organizers of the protest in New York, organized by the Jewish Voice for Peace, Craig Willse said: “We’re over 300 Jews and our friends. We’ve gathered together to call on the ADL to end its police exchanges between the U.S. and Israel. The ADL funds and organizes exchanges between U.S. police who go to Israel to train with the Israeli military. This is an exchange of worst practices, of profiling, of surveillance and violence. And the ADL, which claims to be a civil rights organization, has no business training police.”
