ho should represent the
interests of the pro-Is-
rael community on
Capitol Hill?
That always-delicate issue was
the subject of a meeting of lead-
ers of the Conference of Presi-
dents of Major American Jewish
Organizations last week. The
meeting came in response to con-
cerns among some Jewish lead-
ers about mounting independent
lobbying by a number of groups,
including Americans for Peace
Now (APN) and the Zionist Or-
ganization of America (ZOA).
Recently, APN joined with the
National Association of Arab
Americans to promote an un-
precedented joint agenda that in-
cluded removal of Jewish settlers
from sensitive areas like Hebron.
ZOA, meanwhile, has turned
heads with its crusade to assem-
ble a congressional watchdog
group to monitor the PLO's com-
pliance with the promises it made
as part of the Mideast peace
process. ZOA's earlier effort to
block the nomination of Strobe
Talbott as deputy secretary of
state also turned heads.
Some Presidents Conference
leaders and officials of the Amer-
ican Israel Public Affairs Com-
mittee (AIPAC) worry that such
"freelance" lobbying will under-
cut Jewish unity on Capitol Hill.
Malcolm Hoenlein, the Presi-
dent's Conference executive vice-
chair, denied that the meeting

AIPAC — but that doesn't mean
that on issues on which there isn't
a very clear consensus position,
we should remain silent."
Morton Klein, ZOA's assertive
new national president, was un-
able to attend last week's meet-
ing because of a scheduling
conflict. However, Mr. Klein said
that ZOA was merely filling a
void created by focusing on the
issue of PLO violations.
"The Presidents Conference
did not make this a priority," he
said. "We at ZOA believe this is
a very important issue that comes
to the crux of the peace process.
If the PLO doesn't comply now,
why will they comply when they
have the territories?"
ZOA, Mr. Klein said, "still re-
spects that AIPAC is our prima-
ry lobbying group. But on
occasion, we will speak out-and
we see nothing inappropriate
about it."
