A number of US Jewish groups have voiced their opposition to the upcoming visit this month by Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, following his "repugnant" comments on Wednesday advocating for the Palestinian town of Huwara to be "wiped out."
Leading Jewish American lobby group J Street, Americans for Peace Now and the rabbinical group T'ruah have condemned Smotrich's statements and said he should not be welcomed in the United States.
