President Reuven Rivlin thanked the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations on Sunday for its members' contribution to the United States’ recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. Speaking at the opening session of the group's 44th annual Israel Leadership Mission, he also said, "Today, more than ever, we must work to educate the world, even some of its leaders about that dark time, the terrible crimes committed by the Nazis, and their supporters. Saying that our people collaborated with the Nazis is a new low.”
