Alaska - Chabad Rabbi: Sarah Palin a Great Friend To The Jewish Community
Published on: 08-31-08
[IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME~1/Darrel/LOCALS~1/Temp/rabbi-greenberg-speaking-as-gov-palin-signs-bill-for-israel-300x225.jpg[/IMG] Rabbi Yosef Greenberg speaking on Jun of 2008 as Gov. Palin [seen in photo] signs bill on the 60th Aniv. of Israel Alaska- In light of recent media reports attempting to connect Republican VP nominee Gov. Sarah Palin with controversial historian and Nazi sympathizer Pat Buchanan, VIN News has learned that the Alaska governor has demonstrated strong support for Alaskas Jewish community. In particular, Gov. Palin signed a resolution in June of 2008 recognizing Israels 60th anniversary and the unique relationship between Alaska and the Jewish State, especially the fact that Alaska Airlines played a critical role in the rescue of 40,000 Yemenite Jews in 1948 and 1949. Chabad of Anchorages Rabbi Yosef Greenberg had this to tell VIN News: Gov. Palin signed this resolution in the presence of Alaskas Jewish community leaders. This bill was orchestrated by members of the Alaska Legislation and heavily supported by Speaker of the House, Representative John Harris Gov. Palin has established a great relationship with the Jewish community over the years and has attended several of our Jewish cultural gala events. Gov. Palin also had plans to visit Israel with members of the Jewish community, however, for technical reason, the visit has not occurred yet. I was personally impressed by Gov. Palins remarks of hope and faith when she gave birth to a child with special needs. We all feel that the Governor is a remarkable, energetic, and good person. Having said that I like to reiterate that As a Lubavitcher rabbi, I would like to note that we do not endorse any political candidate News Source: VIN News
