Arthur Stark, Chairman, and Malcolm Hoenlein, Executive Vice Chairman/CEO of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, issued the following statement:
“We congratulate President Donald Trump and the US armed forces for the elimination of the leading ISIS terrorist Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, who was responsible for the deaths of so many innocent people from the US, the region, and around the world. We are grateful for the return of all those involved. The raid was brilliantly planned and executed.”
