Landsman Statement on Malaysia Deporting Israelis

Resources / Foreign Affairs Share on Landsman Statement on Malaysia Deporting Israelis Jul 18, 2026 Foreign Affairs Press Cincinnati, OH – Today, Congressman Greg Landsman (D-OH-01) released the following statement after the Malaysian Prime Minister ordered the immediate deportation of Israelis from the country: They’re kicking Jews out of Malaysia. We’ve seen this all before. The purge of Jews has begun. Predictable, and just the beginning. We know where this leads. There is only one country in the world that will take all Jews kicked out of another country, and that’s Israel. The same people targeting Jews in their countries are also working to destroy Israel. The Unites States does send money to Malaysia, and we shouldn’t penalize the Malaysian people for what their government is doing. We must make it clear that our aid comes with the expectation they won’t brazenly discriminate against our allies, and our office is reaching out directly to the Malaysian embassy. ### Share on
