Turning to the United States, the evolving US-Israel relationship was set to take center stage in the presidential campaign at the annual AIPAC Policy conference. A group of Jewish community leaders at the conference vowed to protest a speech by Republican Frontrunner Donald Trump and "the bigotry, racism, xenophobia, and misogyny expressed by Mr. Trump, and violence promoted by him."
Meanwhile, Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders, the only Jew among the remaining five presidential candidates and the first Jews to ever win a state primary for president, said he would not attend the conference due to scheduling conflicts with his campaign. Sanders said AIPAC refused to allow him to deliver a speech remotely, even though they had allowed previous candidates such as Mitt Romney to do so in prior election years.
Finally, US President Barack Obama nominated Judge Merrick Garland, who is Jewish, to the US Supreme Court. The Republican-led congress has vowed that it will not even give an Obama nominee a hearing. If he is confirmed, however, he will bring the count of Jewish justices on the court to four. The other five are all Roman Catholics.
