Dear Jake, Dalia Rabin outlined the events below for the Rabin 20-year anniversary. Wanted to check-in with you - any concerns about WJC considering an Israel trip? We can steer him towards the NYC option but also want to be equipped with Brooklyn's view on Israel, in case WJC wants to consider it. Thanks, Ami
