Ex-US envoy to Israel fears prejudice unleashed by Trump campaign
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Trump campaign “has unleashed some currents of behavior that will be hard to put back in the box: anti-Semitism, prejudice against Latinos, immigrants, women, and so on,” says Dan Kurtzer, a former US ambassador to Egypt and Israel.
One victim of a likely Trump presidency will be the notion of American exceptionalism, Kurtzer tells an event in Tel Aviv via video conference.
“The idea being a beacon of democracy will now be seen as a joke, when people like David Duke and other racists are seen celebrating.”
— Raphael Ahren
