I had the privilege of sitting with Mort Klein to discuss the history of the Middle East and the situation today. Mort has worked in the Nixon, Ford, and Carter administrations, met with, and continues to meet with, kings, princes, emirs, presidents, prime ministers, ambassadors, and other high-level government officials. Born in a displaced persons camp in Germany, the son of Holocaust survivors, he has been honored by organizations worldwide, and has spoken to audiences across the globe. He is the President of the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) and regularly appears on major news channels in the United States as well as meets with members of the Christian, Muslim, Jewish and other religious communities.
