One in three US citizens believes that Jews in the US are more loyal to Israel than their country of residency, according to data presented to the Knesset Absorption Committee by Anti-Defamation League (ADL) National Director Abe Foxman on Tuesday.
Foxman further stated that an overall drop was recorded in the number of anti-Semites in the US, from 30 percent to 15% in the last 30 years.
However, he said the figure still amounted to approximately 35 million people.
The ADL director also said that from 2005-2007, the number of anti-Semitic incidents in the US decreased from 1,757 to 1,350.
