On June 3, 2018, ADL proudly joined over 40,000 marchers at the annual Celebrate Israel Parade along New York City’s Fifth Avenue. On Israel’s 70th birthday, ADL looks back with pride on our long time support for the Jewish state, and remains committed to working towards a secure, peaceful, Jewish and democratic state. We are inspired by what Israel has built and accomplished, and affirm the values laid out in Israel’s founding Declaration of Independence – Jewish nationhood, freedom, justice, equality and the pursuit of peace.
