“By singling out the one and only Jewish state for opprobrium, Barcelona’s Mayor Ada Culau, has easily failed multiple tests of prejudice and racism,” Center for Jewish Impact Chairman Robert Singer writes in his latest op-eds in The Jerusalem Post and La Vanguardia, following Culau’s decision to unilaterally suspend ties with Israel.

We invite you to read Robert Singer's article in the Times of Israel responding to an op-ed by EU Special Envoy, Dr. Sven Koopmans, on why bringing the voice of Israeli civil society to the diplomatic community is crucial in moving forward any regional process.

The last operation in Gaza - the fourth in the last thirteen years - saw half of Israelis, from the south to Tel Aviv and even as far as the Sharon region, seeking refuge from thousands of Hamas rockets - reinforced the understanding that Israel is facing a multifaceted campaign that must be urgently addressed.

מדינת ישראל חייבת להבין ובעיקר להפנים, שיהודי התפוצות הם נכס אסטרטגי. על הממשלה להבטיח ליהודים בעולם שהיא באמת ובתמים חותרת להבטיח את ביטחונם ומתכוונת לכך ברצינות.
