Abdul El-Sayed, a Democratic US Senate nominee, apologized during a meeting with Michigan’s Jewish Democratic caucus for past remarks that were interpreted as justifying an attack on Temple Israel synagogue. During the meeting, he stated, "I made a mistake." According to the Times of Israel, El-Sayed, who holds critical views on Israel, also refused to endorse a two-state solution in the Holy Land during the session.
