Dietary Laws Observed Ambassador Dore Gold Ambassador Dore Gold is President of the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs. He was the eleventh Permanent Representative of Israel to the United Nations (1997-1999). Most recently, Ambassador Gold debated Justice Goldstone on the merits of the U.N. Goldstone Report, which condemned Israel for alleged human rights violations during Operation Cast Lead. He ardently supported Israel's right to defend herself and has since brought world-wide attention to the biased nature of the report. Previously, Ambassador Gold served as Foreign Policy Advisor to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu from 1996-1997. He also served as an advisor to Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, who asked him to accompany his entourage to Washington and to the 2003 Aqaba Summit with President George W. Bush. He was a member of the Israeli delegation at the 1998 Wye River negotiations between Israel and the PLO, outside of Washington. He negotiated the Note for the Record, which supplemented the 1997 Hebron Protocol, and in 1996 concluded the negotiations with the U.S., Lebanon, Syria, and France for the creation of the Monitoring Group for Southern Lebanon. In 1991, he served as an advisor to the Israeli delegation to the Madrid Peace Conference. From 1985 to 1996 he was a senior research associate at the Jaffee Center for Strategic Studies, Tel Aviv University, where he was Director of the U.S. Foreign and Defense Policy Project.
