(Breitbart) The Republican Jewish Coalition (RJC) blasted President Joe Biden’s new antisemitism strategy on Thursday, as it emerged that it was crafted with help from the antisemitic Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).
The strategy excludes extreme criticism of Israel from the definition of antisemitism, rejecting the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition that was adopted by President Donald Trump in 2019.
(Democrat Alan Dershowitz said Trump’s executive order, which also extended civil rights protections to Jews on college campuses, was “[o]ne of the most important events in the 2,000-year battle against anti-Semitism.”)
As Breitbart News reported at the time:
[Trump’s] executive order would adopt the definition of antisemitism suggested by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA).
