statement following the formation of a new Israeli government, ADL congratulated Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on the new coalition, calling it “a demonstration of Israel’s nearly seventy-five years of vibrant democracy.”

ADL added that it would closely will monitor and respond to actions on these issues as warranted, and would also continue our work on the ground in Israel to promote social cohesion within Israeli society, and work to combat anti-Zionist and anti-Israel trends around the world.
