A pro-Israel group affiliated with conservative commentator William Kristol released a TV ad today targeting Rep. Rush Holt, D-N.J., and questioning his commitment to the Jewish state.
In the ad, the Emergency Committee for Israel (EIC) slammed Holt for signing a letter this year that called for lifting the Israeli blockade of Gaza. The group criticized the six-term Democrat for participating in a conference organized by J Street, a liberal Jewish group that has grown more active in politics this year as it tries to become a counterweight to the powerful American Israel Public Affairs Committee, known as AIPAC.
EIC called J Street's event "anti-Israel" in the ad; J Street says it is pro-Israel but backs a "two-state solution" to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict
Kristol, the founder of The Weekly Standard, and Gary Bauer, a well-known conservative who briefly ran for the GOP presidential nomination in 2000, serve on the board of the Emergency Committee for Israel.
The group said it made a "significant" buy to run the ad in Holt's central New Jersey district.
