It\u2019s not our job to help him out,\u201d the person said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-is=\"component-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Asked by&nbsp;<i class=\"\" data-is=\"component-italic\">i24NEWS&nbsp;<\/i>whether Macron\u2019s push for greater Palestinian state recognition or his lack of action in tackling antisemitism at home led to the stance of organized American Jewry, the person said it\u2019s more of \u201cthe climate\u201d which allows one to say \u2018Look, the American Jews met with me,\u2019 regardless of the content.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-is=\"component-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">The person said they are sure, if a meeting would have happened, that everybody in the room would have taken a hard line with Macron, including his \u201cstatements on Israel, the failure to respond to antisemitism\u201d and France\u2019s announcement this summer that it will recognize a Palestinian state later this month, and is leading an effort to get more countries to do the same.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-is=\"component-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">But, the person told&nbsp;<i class=\"\" data-is=\"component-italic\">i24NEWS&nbsp;<\/i>they are convinced that, in the end, while no final decision actually had to be taken, there was enough pressure that a consensus would have been reached to decline the meeting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-is=\"component-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Of the timing of Rosh Hashanah allowing for leadership to not be forced to officially say no to Macron, the person said \u201cG-d saves us every time.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-is=\"component-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Another source familiar with the matter noted that it cannot be ruled out that Macron may eventually succeed in arranging a meeting with certain representatives, as the organizations are not a single unified body.

The message came as Macron continues to push for recognition of a Palestinian state, a move Israel strongly opposes. Sources further told&nbsp;<i class=\"\" data-is=\"component-italic\">i24NEWS&nbsp;<\/i>that Israel is weighing additional retaliatory measures against Macron, including the potential closure of the French consulate in Jerusalem, which primarily serves Palestinians in the West Bank.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr style=\"height: 15px; background: #d0e6fa; width: 100%;\">\n<div id=\"content\" class=\"content-alignment\">\n<div id=\"watch-description\" class=\"yt-uix-button-panel\">\n<div id=\"watch-description-text\" style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p><em>Zawarto\u015b\u0107 publikowanych artyku\u0142\u00f3w i materia\u0142\u00f3w nie reprezentuje pogl\u0105d\u00f3w ani opinii Reunion&#8217;68,<\/em><em><br \/>\nani te\u017c webmastera Blogu Reunion&#8217;68, chyba ze jest to wyra\u017anie zaznaczone.<br \/>\nTwoje uwagi, linki, w\u0142asne artyku\u0142y lub wiadomo\u015bci prze\u015blij na adres:<br \/>\n<\/em><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong><em><a style=\"color: #000080;\" href=\"mailto:webmaster@reunion68.com\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">webmaster@reunion68.com<\/span><\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<hr style=\"width: 100%;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Macron\u2019s Meeting with American Jewry \u2018Won\u2019t Happen\u2019 Amid Palestinian Recognition Drive, Surge in Antisemitism i24 News and Algemeiner Staff French President Emmanuel Macron speaks during a press conference in Paris, France, June 12, 2024.
