Abraham (Abe) Foxman, who served as CEO of the Anti-Defamation League for 27 years, from 1987 to 2015, has passed away at the age of 86. Foxman dedicated his entire 50-year career to the Anti-Defamation League and became one of the most prominent voices in the world in the fight against antisemitism and hatred. President Isaac Herzog published a eulogy in English: “I was deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Abe Foxman, a legendary leader of the Jewish people, a fighter for justice and equality, and a longtime and dear friend of mine.”
