A Milwaukee police chief responded to heated criticism for attending a counterterrorism training seminar<\/a> in Israel last month.<\/p>\n

Milwaukee Police Chief Jeffrey Norman attended the seminar in the first week of December. He faced opposition at a public meeting for the city’s Fire and Police Commission, with residents accusing him of learning how to “oppress our communities.”<\/p>\n

“For this police chief in this political climate when there\u2019s a genocide happening right now, to go learn tactics to further oppress our communities, is shameful,” said Angela Lang, who represented Black Leaders Organizing for Communities.<\/p>\n

“I called this trip unconscionable and I believe that with my chest,” said Krissie Fung, a local resident. “I think that for many Milwaukeeans this is not something they will ever forgive.”<\/p>\n

Norman released a statement explaining his trip to Israel,<\/a> but he made no apology for the decision.<\/p>\n

“At last night\u2019s Fire and Police Commission meeting, members of the community and various organizations shared their concerns regarding my recent training trip to Israel. I want to sincerely thank everyone who took the time to express their thoughts and experiences,” he said.<\/p>\n

“In 2025, I was invited to participate in the Homeland Security Program<\/a> in Israel, sponsored by the Jewish Institute for National Security of America (JINSA) and the Major Cities Chiefs Association (MCCA). This program, established after 9\/11, facilitates the exchange of best practices between U.S. law enforcement and leading counterterrorism experts,” he explained.<\/p>\n

“Given today\u2019s global security challenges, I viewed this as an important opportunity to learn strategies for preventing and responding to terrorism\u2014knowledge that ultimately enhances the safety of the entire community I serve,” he said.<\/p>\n

“As a leader, I believe in lifelong learning. Every experience, including the feedback I received last night, is part of that journey. I want to assure you that your comments were heard and taken seriously,” he added.<\/p>\n

The training in Israel was run by former FBI Assistant Director<\/a> Steven Pomerantz, who said the seminar was not political in nature. He added that Israeli police have more experience than anyone in handling counterterrorism.<\/p>\n

“The Israel national police had more experience than any other police agency in the world dealing with terrorism and a lot of lessons they had learned over the years that they were willing to share with American law enforcement,” Pomerantz told local Fox 6.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
