US Conference of Presidents : Thatcher was a great friend of Israel and the Jewish people
The
Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations mourns
the passing of former Prime Minister, Baroness Margaret Thatcher. She
was a great friend of Israel and the Jewish people," the Conference said
in a statement.
"We
had the privilege of meeting with her both here and in Israel. Prime
Minister Thatcher made a remarkable contribution not only to her country
but also to fostering ties between England and the United States," said
Richard Stone, Chairman, and Malcolm Hoenlein, Executive Vice Chairman
of the Conference of Presidents.
"During
her entire career she promoted and advanced the Western democratic
principles in which she deeply believed. We send our condolences to her
loved ones and to the people of Great Britain."
