Gershon Baskin, an author and Middle East director, has challenged a Vanity Fair report alleging Jared Kushner had a secret $1 billion account at the Bank of Israel. Baskin states the Bank of Israel is a central bank that does not offer private accounts to individuals, making the allegation incompatible with its rules. He questions the reporting's credibility due to the lack of explanation for such an arrangement, while personally vouching for Kushner's genuine concern for Israelis and Palestinians.
