(JNS) The Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) on Friday announced that it will honor former President Donald Trump with its Theodor Herzl Medallion.
Trump will receive the honor, which ZOA said it “rarely gives,” at the organization’s national award dinner in New York City on Nov. 13.
ZOA stated in an email that it is honoring Trump “for being the best friend Israel ever had in the White House.” It listed a number of items in the context of Trump’s pro-Israel and pro-Jewish record, including:
- Brokering the Abraham Accords;
- Relocating the US Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem;
- An executive order strengthening Title VI of the Civil Rights Act to protect Jewish students;
- Recognizing Israel’s sovereignty over the Golan Heights;
- Pulling the US out of the Iran deal;
- Halting US funding of the Palestinian Authority and UNRWA;
- Recognizing the legality of Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria;
- Becoming the first US president to pray at the Western Wall; and more.
At the same event, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) will receive ZOA’s Dr. Miriam and Sheldon G. Adelson Defender of Israel Award. Miriam Adelson will present both Trump and McCarthy’s the awards.
It is to bad the democrats don’t have the intestinal fortitude of Donald Trump when it comes to doing the right thing, but the democrats are part of the left, whether anyone likes it or not, and the left is a satellite of Satan, and will do nothing that is right.
Es ist wahr er hat großes Getan für Israel, während seine Vorgänger nur fromme Worte hatten, Gott der Herr vergelte es
Thank you, it’s about time. They almost gave him a Nobel peace prize, but I never heard anymore about it. Very good Israel. ????
