New Jewish Congress Summit Set For 27 November 2007
The New Jewish Congress will hold its first summit at the Ramada-Renaissance Hotel, Jerusalem on 27 November 2007.
A distinguished array of Rabbis are scheduled to participate in the summit. They are:

The summit’s planned sessions will be:

- The Land of Israel, Yerushalaiym, The Temple-Mount and The Holy Temple: Ways to Strengthen their Legal Status – National and International
- A Constitution
- Security, Economy and Social Policies in The State of The Jewish Nation
- Awards to Distinguished Bodies and Persons for Special Contributions to The Cause
- Organizing The First New Jewish Congress
The New Jewish Congress summit is scheduled to coincide with the Annapolis Peace Conference being held in the United States; a fact not lost on the summit’s organizers.
Michelle Malkin says of the Annapolis Peace Conference, “Those who remember history are not optimistic about the summit’s prospects. The word ‘folly’ keeps cropping up.”
Tel-Chai Nation reports that the Annapolis Peace Conference may be postponed.
This new group is absolutely necessary. Let’s hope that the majority of right-thinking Jews will coalesce around this group and its agenda.
