  • American Jewish Committee on Israel’s seizure of an Iranian ship allegedly carrying arms to Hezbollah: "An unmistakable sign that the Tehran regime is fanning the flames of war and conflict in the Middle East."
  • J Street, also on seizure: It "underscores the very real security threats Israel faces on a daily basis" and "highlights, as well, the need for vigorous efforts by Israel, the United States, and the international community to combat weapons smuggling in the region."
  • Adalah-NY wants the New York Mets to cancel a Hebron Fund dinner at its stadium, CitiField, because the fund aids Hebron’s settlers.
  • Simon Wiesenthal Center wants the U.S. to announce it will veto any UN Security Council report on the Goldstone Report.
