Anti-Defamation League on Mosab Hassan Yousef’s call for Muslims to leave the United States at the Jewish American Summit
“vile and unacceptable”

Reporting
About this source
Reporting on responses to Mosab Hassan Yousef's remarks at the Jewish American Summit, including a statement attributed to the Jewish Partnership for Los Angeles.
Before the quotation
The Forward asked sponsoring organizations about Yousef's comments and reported that ADL's Los Angeles office was one of two sponsors to disavow them. This entry records the statement quoted in that report, not a separately verified publication by ADL.
After the quotation
The report says ADL had no part in selecting speakers and had not published the statement on its own channels. September 9 is the report-date bound used for this newly recovered older response, not a claim that it was issued that day; the actual statement time is unknown. It does not establish whether Greenblatt personally answered earlier questions.
How this statement is classified
The original reporter directly attributes the condemnatory language to ADL's regional office. This is an institutional response, not a new personal statement by Jonathan Greenblatt.
