Hear ZOA National President Mort Klein deliver his trenchant and passionate analysis of the lies told against Israel and their impact on Israel's safety and security, and learn what actions YOU can take to make a difference for Israel's future.

Morton Klein is a world renowned speaker and leading Jewish activist. He is a frequent guest on national news programs and has been profiled and published in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, the New Republic and Commentary, among many others. The Forward named Klein one of the Top 5 Jewish Leaders in the US, and Prime Minister Netanyahu has called the ZOA under Klein’s leadership “an organization that refuses to compromise on the truth regardless of prevailing fashions.”

Experience the provocative and controversial film that examines the rise of J-Street, the well-funded activist organization with a powerful marketing effort and a seemingly idealistic message.  After the screening, the film's producer Dr. Charles Jacobs will lead a discussion of the film's creation and its impact, especially in light of the recent Gaza war and the 2-1 vote by members of the Conference of Presidents of Major Jewish Organizations not to admit J-Street as a member.  What does it mean to be pro-Israel?  See the film and decide for yourself!

Tickets $12.50.  Producer reception before the film at 7:30, $25, includes ticket.

Islamist ideologues understand the power of rewriting history and they have broadened their campaign to dismantle the nation-state of the Jewish people with the erasure of Jewish history and creation of pseudo-history. Body and Soul – The State of the Jewish Nation, a new documentary film by award-winning filmmaker Gloria Z. Greenfield, presents a comprehensive examination of the broad and deep connections between the Jewish People and the Land of Israel. World-renowned historians, archaeologists, political scientists, religious leaders, and international law and media experts trace the evocative evolution of the relationship between the Jewish People and their homeland that is more than 3,000 years old.

“Jewish identity is born in a journey to the Land of Israel”, declares Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks of the United Kingdom. That journey moves through Antiquity, the Middle Ages, then into modernity, where the development of political Zionism catalyzed the blossoming of a new Jewish spirit. That renewal of Jewish spirit resulted in the rebirth of Jewish sovereignty in the Land of Israel, an event that Harvard University Professor Ruth Wisse declares “a miracle of truly Biblical proportions.”

HAPPENING TOMORROW! Monday evening is The Metropolitan Opera's Opening Night Gala for the hateful performance of The Death of Klinghoffer.
