National Jewish Organizations Come to Rush Limbaugh's Defense

NATIONAL JEWISH ORGANIZATIONS COME TO RUSH LIMBAUGH'S DEFENSE

 
The following statement has been issued by numerous national Jewish organizations, among them: AMERICAN FRIENDS OF LIKUD, CAMERA, EMUNAH OF AMERICA, JINSA, NATIONAL COUNCIL OF YOUNG ISRAEL, RELIGIOUS ZIONISTS OF AMERICA, and Z-STREET:

"There has been controversy, recently, over statements made by radio talk-show host Rush Limbaugh about Jewish voting patterns, political ties and the recent Massachusetts election. We are deeply dismayed by the unfounded criticism of the talk show commentator's observations.

While one may agree or disagree with Mr. Limbaugh's views on many subjects, his outspoken support for Israel has been eloquent, informed and undeniable. Moreover, in commentary on the Jewish people, he has been nothing short of a philo-Semite. We are grateful for his strong and singular voice on these issues."
