I am Jewish and I support Mr. Bannon

Dear Editor:

I am not surprised that David Cicilline is circulating a petition around.

As Jew, who went to religious school for 12 years, I support Mr. Bannon.

Mr. Bannon worked for Jewish businessman Andrew Breitbart. Recently he has taken a key position in the Trump Presidential Campaign. In that capacity he worked alongside Mr. Trump, Ivanka Trump—herself a convert to Orthodox Judaism—Ivanka’s husband Jared Kushner—a key Trump Advisor, and Eric Trump—whose wife is also Jewish.

If Mr. Bannon was really anti-Semitic why would he work for Mr. Trump, given the man’s close family ties to Judaism?

Why would Mr. Bannon go to the Zionist Organization of America Gala?
