Aaron Bandler is an award-winning national reporter at JNS based in Los Angeles. Originally from the San Francisco Bay Area, he worked for nearly eight years at the Jewish Journal, and before that, at the Daily Wire.

Liz Berney, of ZOA, told JNS that the organization is “pleased that the Supreme Court and the appellate court properly dismissed this baseless case outright.”
Elana Stern, of the firm Ropes and Gray, told JNS that “no student and no family should have to experience what Eden and Montana Horwitz have had to experience.”
“This student’s ability to exercise, freely, his religion should not be incompatible with his equally important right to fully participate in residential life at Williams,” Rachel Balaban, of the Brandeis Center, told JNS.
“No child should have to endure this kind of sustained harassment and exclusion for their religious identity in a public school or any school,” the Anti-Defamation League said.
A university spokesman told JNS that “the condemnation of such a peaceful event to share a story of resilience in the face of extreme suffering is antithetical to the values of our Bruin community.”
“Israel cannot survive without the Diaspora’s support, and the Diaspora needs Israel for its identity and a safe haven in a time of need,” Israel Bachar, Israeli consul general to the Pacific Southwest, told JNS.
“Visas provided to foreign students to live, study and work in the United States are a privilege, not a right,” the department spokesman told JNS.
“Over two-thirds of the accounts and posts flagged by the ADL were removed prior to the publication of this report, while some did not violate our policies,” a Meta spokesman told JNS.
“These changes reinforce that transparency and accountability can be powerful motivators,” Shira Goodman, of the Anti-Defamation League, told JNS.
Joel Greenberg of Art Ashes told JNS that “it sends a very important message to the world that the crimes of the Holocaust, no matter how many years have passed, will not be forgotten.”
Doron Almog told JNS that one of the most poignant parts of a new documentary about his family is when he was teaching Eran, who died at 23 in 2007, how to swim.
“We are especially troubled that these issues have persisted despite concerns raised following last year’s annual meeting,” the two groups stated.
