National President - Zionist Organization of America
Keynote Renowned Guest Scholar
Morton A. Klein is National President of the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA), the oldest pro-Israel group in the United States, founded in 1897. He is a member of the Executive Committee of AIPAC. Mr. Klein is widely regarded as one of the leading Jewish activists in the United States. He is a member of the International Board of Governors of the College of Judea and Samaria in Ariel, Israel. The New York Jewish Week has named him one of the top ten Jewish leaders who have made a difference. The Jewish Press recently stated that "Morton Klein is one of the best minds in this country." The Wall Street Journal called the ZOA "heroic and the most credible advocate for Israel on the American Jewish scene today " and we should "snap a salute to those who were right about Oslo and Arafat all along, including Morton Klein who was wise, brave, and unflinchingly honest. When the history of the American Jewish struggle in these years is written, Mr. Klein will emerge as an outsized figure." His successful campaigns against anti-Israel bias as well as his work on Capitol Hill, were the subject of 30 feature stories both here and in Israel. More than 300 of his articles and letters have been published in leading newspapers and magazines around the world. Mr. Klein has appeared on TV and radio including ABC's Peter Jennings World News Tonight, NBC National News, Jim Lehrer News Hour, O'Reilly Factor, CNN, Fox TV, NPR, Col.
