New York, NY, March 28, 2013 … The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) issued the following statement on the new anti-Israel ads that will appear on Metro North and MTA trains:
We are deeply disturbed that American Muslims for Palestine is undertaking a billboard campaign that falsely accuses Israel of "apartheid." Their ad campaign ignores the complicated nature of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and is part of the campaign to delegitimize and demonize the Jewish state.
It shows a profound lack of sensitivity that they chose the first day of the Jewish holiday of Passover to announce this malicious and false ad campaign.
