Candidato al Senado por Michigan tiene dificultades para afirmar el derecho a existir de Israel

El candidato demócrata al Senado, Abdul El-Sayed, dijo a sus partidarios en un evento de campaña que le resulta difícil responder si Israel tiene derecho a existir como un Estado judío.

El-Sayed hizo estos comentarios la semana pasada durante un evento de "Judíos por Abdul" en Pontiac, Míchigan. En un audio filtrado obtenido por Jewish Insider, declaró que a menudo tiene dificultades con la pregunta porque obliga a definir qué significa un Estado judío. Agregó que quienes plantean el interrogante deberían explicar cómo su visión se alinea con los valores liberales en los Estados Unidos.
