SENZANO: The MRC was right to exclude the JLC from full membership
Several opinion pieces have been recently published in The Cavalier Daily regarding the decision of the Minority Rights Coalition to deny membership to the Jewish Leadership Council. It seems that each writer takes this rejection to signal devaluation of Jewish opinion rather than rejection of the JLC’s pro-Israel ideology, which is evident by the inclusion of their constituent group Hoos for Israel. I should preface this first part by stating that I am not involved in and do not speak on behalf of the MRC. However, I believe that for the JLC to be considered eligible for membership in the MRC, they must denounce their ties to Zionist groups.
