Anti-Defamation League Activities
Americans spying on Americans and giving the information to foreign governments: Into what has our country devolved?
As a U.S. citizen, I am outraged by the allegations that the Anti-Defamation League of B’nai B’rith would spy upon American citizens and permit that information to be transmitted to foreign governments: Israel and South Africa.
As a former board member of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, I am incensed that my fellow Americans would think so little of our Constitution that they would spy upon constitutionally protected activities and pass that information to foreign governments.
The Constitution protects the activities of the ADC, and non-governmental organizations that would spy upon constitutionally protected activities jeopardize for all the rights and freedoms that we blithely assume. The ADL’s objectives do not give it the prerogative to subvert the rights guaranteed to us by the Constitution. If the allegations are true, then the people responsible have betrayed our Constitution.
