ZOA’s Mort Klein speaks uncomfortable truths

WATCH: “TALX” with Alex Traiman and guest Mort Klein

Mort Klein, the national president of the Zionist Organization of America, is no stranger to speaking uncomfortable truths.

When other American Jewish groups supported Israel’s withdrawal from the Gaza Strip in 2005, Klein and the ZOA were among the few Jewish organizations to oppose the move. He continues to be at the forefront of advocating for the Jewish state and the interests of Jews in America.

Tune in to this conversation hosted by JNS CEO and Jerusalem bureau chief Alex Traiman for an in-depth conversation about how the ZOA continues its Zionist advocacy and helps ensure that the relationship between America and Israel remains ironclad.
