    One of the organizations that sponsors these trainings is the Anti-Defamation League (ADL). The ADL is a non-profit that works to combat anti-Semitism and advocate for Israel. In this context, the ADL runs a National Counter-Terrorism Seminar that has sent hundreds of top ranking officials to Israel to learn about combatting terror since 2003. That same year the ADL established an Advanced Training School that brings delegations of Israeli law enforcement to speak to American law enforcement officials, involving over 1,000 U.S. participants since the program began.

    The Police Department of Salt Lake City, Utah, is among the departments that have sent delegates to Israel. Chris Burbank served as Chief of Salt Lake City Police Department between 2006 and 2015, and attended a training in Israel with the ADL as a delegate of the National Counter-Terrorism Seminar in September 2008.

    He was previously the First Vice President of the Major Cities Chiefs Association, and served as the Director of Law Enforcement Engagement at the Center for Policing Equity, a think tank that “aims to provide leadership in equity through excellence in research.” As of 2018, he serves as the Vice President of Strategic Partnerships at the center.

    “Whenever [a police department] is viewed as an occupying force, that is difficult for community members.”  Chief Chris Burbank
