Gov. Josh Shapiro once wrote in an op-ed for his college paper that he “was a past volunteer in the Israeli army.”
Josh Shapiro abandoned a 31-year-old claim that he “volunteered” for the Israeli military almost as soon as it was resurfaced Friday.
“While he was in high school, Josh Shapiro was required to do a service project, which he and several classmates completed through a program that took them to a kibbutz in Israel where he worked on a farm and at a fishery,” Bonder told the outlet, and later confirmed with the Daily Beast.
