He is mentioned more than anyone else. So naturally, Washington was a friend of Israel, he couldn't be a sympathizer of the Zionist movement; there wasn't any during his time.

He did so in a letter to Mordecai Manuel Noah, who is gener- ally regarded as the first American Zionist. Adams wrote a very strong letter of endorsement. Of course, if there had been such a move- ment in Washington's time, he would also have been sympathetic. Else why does the Jewish National Fund maintain a Washington For- est in Israel?
