Advancing American Freedom issued the following statement on Jack Lew’s nomination to be the U.S. Ambassador to Israel.
“In Israel’s moment of crisis, the United States needs a nominee with a track record of standing with Israel and supporting our ally,” said AAF Executive Director Paul Teller. “Instead, Jack Lew has a history of helping Iran evade sanctions and for defending the Obama administration’s decision not to veto a 2016 UN Security council resolution condemning Israeli settlements. The United States must be a united front against Hamas and Iran and send a clear message that there will be no softness or slack when dealing with these hostile powers.”
