Alex Traiman, an Israeli-American dual citizen, spoke to DC News Now from Jerusalem.

“The events not only as they’re happening and unfolding in Israel, but also the tremendous rise in anti-Semitic incidents in the United States. And so the gathering of unity, I think, is one that’s very important,” says Traiman.
