Rabbi Issac Newman
Rabbi Isaac Newman was the spiritual leader for 20 years of the Barnet Synagogue (United Synagogue) in London, and the Chief Rabbi of the Royal Air Force of Great Britain. During the first Intifada, when the Israeli government deported over four hundred Palestinians accused of being Muslim extremists, Rabbi Newman joined Palestinian people in an act of prophetic solidarity by living in tents pitched in front of the Knesset building for a couple months.
Yad Vashem honors those few Gentiles who sacrificed to save Jews during the Holocaust by planting trees along “The Avenue of the Righteous Among the Nations.” Rabbi Newman is one of the righteous among the Israelis who is sacrificing to save Palestinians facing their own historical travail.
Rabbi Newman is a past chairperson of Rabbis for Human Rights.
