Mark Mellman, president and chief executive of the Democratic Majority of Israel, whose political action committee endorsed Neal, told JNS that number one is “potentially a tight career.”
An internal vote shows that Neal is ahead of Morse, 46% vs. 41%, with an undecided thirteen.
An Aug. 23-24 vote conducted via RABA Research for Jewish Insider that Neal is ahead of Morse, 49% to 40%, with 12% undecided.
Regarding IfNotNow’s approval, Mellman said, “IfNotNow is an organization that does not [believe] Israel’s right to exist within any border and [the] fact that they approve it, I think, says a lot about its policy.”
Mellman said Neal, who has served in Congress since 1989 and is chairman of the tough U.S. House Committee of Media and Arbitration, “has been a champion of the pro-Israel cause.”
“Israel is a representative democracy,” Neal told Jewish Insider in a recent interview.”They adhere to the principles of constitutional democracy, freedom of expression, freedom of the press and the right to assembly.And I saw the debate in the Knesset.” It’s stormy.”
On the website of his crusade, Morse states: “As a Jew, I deeply perceive the desire to feel the rise of anti-Semitism in this country and around the world.As a Jew, I also feel empathy for the struggle of the Palestinian network opposed to an endless profession and for a homeland of my own”.
With regard to relations between the United States and Israel, Morse told Jewish Insider on August 19: “As a member of Congress, I will use my voice to magnify the popular activism of Palestinians and Israeli Jews in order to achieve a long term for both peoples, as well as to ensure that American for Israel is used to deal with security issues and not to perpetuate human rights violations.
Morse supports the conditioning of Americans to Israel.
“I believe that our taxpayers’ cash will not be used for activities that strengthen occupation, annexation, space demolitions, detention of Palestinian youths and undermine the two-state solution,” Morse said on his crusader website.
Although it does not belong to the ANTI-E-Eragal BDS movement, it opposes the law to combat it.
“Despite my non-public position, I would still oppose the law that would criminalize or prevent others from exercising their freedom of speech and First Amendment rights with respect to the BDS,” he said.
Neal, one of 292 co-sponsors of Israel’s 2017 anti-boycott law, which would have allowed state and local governments the right to punish state or local merchants for interacting in a boycott of Israel.
Morse, like Neal, is the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, from which the United States withdrew in May 2018, reimposing the sanctions lifted under it, as well as enacting new sanctions against the regime.Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
“A great in the Jewish and pro-Israel community”
In any case, “President Neal has an exemplary record in Congress, as leader of the Democratic Party, protecting Massachusetts and the United States with seniority, and as chairman of the tough Media and Arbitration Committee, and as an advocate for strong U.S. leadership.U.S. and a close relationship between the United States and Israel.”Array josh Block, former assistant to US President Bill Clinton and former Israel’s allocation leader, told JNS.
Block called the approval of Ocasio-Cortez de Morse, who is gay, “a braised attempt to overshadow the Massachusetts Democratic Party’s recent youth wing allegations of “dangerous, senseless sexual contact” with academics.his campaign.”
Morse denied the accusations, admitted to having had consensual relationships with male scholars when he was an adjunct professor at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst (he apologized to those who were uncomfortable with his alleged guilt).
According to a report through the left-wing news The Intercept, the allegations were fabricated through Democrats at UMass Amherst College.
UMass College Democrats members allegedly attempted to incriminate Morse by leaking messages exchanged between Morse and UMass President Amherst College Democrats, after the two sat on a panel once by College Democrats at a local network school through the organization. Finally, instead, broader accusations.next to the habit were published in August in the student newspaper UMass.
A letter was sent to Morse through the College Democrats telling him that he was no longer welcome at their events.Neal has denied any involvement in being the allegations opposed to Morse.
With regard to outdoor influence in the contest, “it would be terrible if the Justice Democrats and the AOC could use their manipulative out-of-district presence to deprive the Massachusetts electorate of Representative Neal’s leadership in domestic and foreign affairs, adding its strong coverage.record.children of sexual predators,” Block said, defeating Morse will be even more an achievement for the coverage and improvement of his constituents.”
Democratic strateque Steve Rabinowitz JNS would be “substantial” and “an incredible deal if Neal loses and Morse wins.”
However, he noted, “It will be more in the corridors of Congress than in a Jewish and pro-Israel community, yet [it will also] be a great challenge in the Jewish and pro-Israel community.”
“It’s just going to be a bigger issue in a Democratic caucus,” said Rabinowitz, who believes Neal will win.
The race is so vital in the pro-Israel network that New York-based billionaire hedge fund leader and philanthropist Jeffrey Talpins held a fundraiser Friday, according to NORPAC in a mass email the same day, in which the organization later said the initial mass email he sent to announce an “emergency” fundraiser for Neal a mistake.Neither the fundraiser nor Talpins were related with NORPAC.
Pro-Israel America, which Neal, raised $25,000 for the licensee.
“We continue to make our component to help protect President Neal’s victory and send a transparent message that Mr. Neal’s anti-Islamic hate views.Moors are not welcome in Washington DC,” NORPAC said in the email.
Halie Soifer, executive director of the Jewish Democratic Council of America, which supported Neal, told JNS that the 16-term congressman “aligns with the values of Jewish Democrats and has been doing so for decades in Congress.This includes access to affordable care and education for Israel, and protecting Americans from the epidemic of gun violence.
Mellman and Soifer refused what a Morse uprising would mean for the Jewish and pro-Israel community, saying the latter: “We are convinced that he will win.”
