Mort deeply appreciated Erdan’s kind words in Erdan’s opening speech at the BDS Conference, explicitly stating his appreciation for Mort’s and ZOA’s relentless energy in our campaigns and fights against Israel’s enemies and our promoting strong U.S.-Israel relations in Congress. Erdan kindly stated that he hoped all would have ZOA’s energy in our battles for Israel. ZOA Chair Mark Levenson has had the honor and privilege of knowing Minister Erdan for many years and being present with him at numerous economic and environmental meetings in both Israel and New York, where his keen grasp of complicated innovative ideas and his terrific representation of Israel was evident to all. All of us at ZOA say Mazel Tov to Minister Gilad Erdan and we look forward to working with you in your new critically important post to strengthen Israel and US Israel relations and to weaken and overcome the enemies of the Jewish people and the Jewish State of Israel.
