Foxman to Tenet's Rescue

By Jeffrey Goldberg

Dec 17 2008, 1:59 PM ET Comment

This is what Abe Foxman, the head of the Anti-Defamation League, has to say about Patrick Tyler's allegations:

I have known and worked with George Tenet for more than a decade and find Patrick Tyler's allegations outrageous and unbelievable.
 
 As part of the Clinton and Bush teams working towards facilitating a peace agreement between Israel and the Palestinians, George was an advocate of Israel's right to defend its citizens and its country, and continues to be one today as a private citizen.
 
As a friend of Israel and the Jewish people, I believe George Tenet, who has vehemently denied the charges and whose track record speaks for itself, not Patrick Tyler and his ugly unsubstantiated charges.
