On April 9, 1999, the Los Angeles Times published an article about the American Jewish response to the ethnic cleansing in Kosovo. With images from the region that resonate with 20th century Jewish experience, the crisis in Kosovo has prompted the Jewish community to be outspoken in condemning the violence against the ethnic Albanians. The Anti-Defamation League has sponsored full-page advertisements supporting the NATO bombing campaign and asking for donations to help "innocent victims of hatred." Jewish Federation chapters across the United States have also run advertisements and established relief funds.
