Z STREET has returned during this period of global anxiety. Our focus remains to help inform about the realities of Israel and its role in the greater Middle East, as well as the world’s response to Jews and the Jewish State. So much misinformation out there, so much truth that needs to be shared.
Please check out the It’s Worth Your Attention page of this website to see issues we think are worth your consideration, and what you may not find elsewhere. Let us know your thoughts.
06.14.20 The U.S. appears to be slowly unraveling. Perhaps this won’t be the last straw, but the views dividing Americans are becoming increasing insurmountable. The death of a black man, George Floyd, at the hands (actually knee) of a Minneapolis police officer has brought massive protests, some of which turned into wanton destruction and looting of businesses in cities across the country. Predictably, some of the worst elements fanning the flames of destruction are inserting hatred of Jews and the Jewish State into the mix. For a perfect, horrible example, read here.
05.21.20 The next big issue over which Israel is being attacked in the international community is the extension of sovereignty in some areas of the disputed territories. Those who are unfamiliar with the details are harming the cause by parroting the antagonists’ name game of misnaming the effort “annexation.” A nation cannot annex territory to which it has the legitimate claim, as Israel does over the territory. The proper shorthand is sovereignty, but the best nomenclature is “extension of Israeli law” to the territories in question. See a terrific piece by Victor Rosenthal in our It’s Worth Your Attention page.
The 05.20.20 issue has to do with the abject failure of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations.

It happened! The seven+ year odyssey with the IRS has concluded with a real victory through the legal system. The joint Consent Decree, laying out the relevant facts, is posted on this site, and soon we’ll bring you up-to-date on what’s been happening lo these many years.
And more importantly, we can again focus on what’s happening out there on the planet, especially regarding Israel, the Middle East, and the Jewish people.

Q: What else might you want to say?
A: The legal process is an unwieldy, awkward tool for correcting injustice, but sometimes, if you stick to it long enough, it actually works!
Here is another injustice you should be concerned about:

As an active suporter of Christian Friends of Israeli Communities, I am interested in knowing how Z Street might help advocate the cause of Jewish settlement in the Heartland of Israel (Judea and Samaria) and to counter the rascist claims of Two State Solution advocates.
Hey I’m hear for that exact same reason. And willing to support this organization!
Thanks

Mazel Tov!! How can I help? Join? Support? Please keep me informed.
A few years ago I would have shared articles about your “victory” (and your ordeal), but I have stopped trying to convince family and erstwhile friends that Obama’s administration was not only hostile to Israel but was simply corrupt – because I value having access to my grandchildren…
On the off-chance that the people I used to argue with find their way here and read this comment, let me just say, “I told you so.”
Fortunately, Lori, unlike me, you did not give up the fight.
Thank you.
Mazel Tov from Israel!
Please put me on your mailing list.
Ber
I’d love to donate, tax-exempt or not. How?
Mazel Tov and welcome back! The voice of Z Street may have been silent for a time, but it wasn’t shut down for good. Looking forward to reading and sharing your education of the truth!
Congratulations on you victory and proving what we all knew about the Obama administration. How to see you get Zstreet moving agian.
Mazal tov on your legal victory! Am Yisrael Chai! Yesha is our homeland!
What kind of projects are you planning? Please email.
Thank you, on all Israel lovers behalf.
May the Lord restore Israel’s birthright to all the land granted in His Word and may His people always find peace and prosperity there.
Thank you for not giving up. You are a true Jewish warrior.

Dear Lori,
A huge and heartfelt congratulations! Your tenacity is truly inspiring. Let’s talk about collaborating between our orgs for even bigger impact. Much work to do and so few of us!
Congratulations!!!! Thank you for fighting for the rights of all Americans to be free from governmental discrimination and its stigma.
Further to the comments of David Shaffer, I have been in constant dread of the obvious and obviously politically motivated ‘weaponization’ of the IRS. (Paraphrasing Evan Douglas Sayet.)
I wish I had known of your struggle before reading the Op Ed – I could have helped. Now that you don’t need assistance briefing, etc., please add a secure donation link!
It’s about time !! My husband Morris Weinreb the esteemed physiologist didn’t live to see this day. However I have.
Please put me on the mailing list.
I heard your story on Israel News Talk Radio on Gadi Edelman’s sh0w The Danger Zone on SoundCloud. I’m not at all surprised to hear about your experience with the IRS of the the previous administration. Perhaps enraged may be a better description of how.
Keep up the wonderful work you’re doing. We’re very proud of you for what you’ve done and continue to do. Please keep up this difficult and important work.
Kindly add me to your mailing list.
Thank you!
what a remarkable saga of courage, persistence and determination for Z Street and its principals to finally get the IRS to admit in public to its anti-Semitic program during the Obama Administration. may we see Z Street champion the cause of Zionism in the Jewish heartland of Israel.
Welcome back👍. You realize ‘7’ is HIS number for completness😇
Please add me to your mailing list.

I will be sending your link to the more than 6,000 people on my mailing list.
Thanks for putting up the good fight. It not only made a point, but also made it easier for other pro-Israel organizations to follow you.
mazel tov! this is a time for courage, and you have my support! please add me to your mailing list.
Thank you for persevering, for going up against a giant monster of bureaucracy and a bastion of politicized work! We appreciate you and what you do, please keep it up.
Outraged, but not surprised to hear of the IRS’s illegal behavior. Shades of J. Edgar Hoover,
who authorized wiretaps of MLK!
I am not an evangelical Christian, but a Roman Catholic one. I think there must be some way to achieve peace in the region, without Israel’s being destroyed.
I will contribute. Please put me on the mailing list.
I would like to be on your list for updates and news.. God Bless The United States and Israel…
So glad you are back from one of your original supporters.
Congratulation on fighting the good fight and winning! It’s too bad that the mainstream media won’t report on your victory. All those who believe what they read and see from the liberal, non-truth-seeking news outlets will continue to think that Obama was a saint.
Please put me on your mailing list.
Kol ha-kavod! Add to mail list, please.
You are great. Keep up the good work. Praise the lord.
Count me in!
May all your future efforts continue to be blessed!

I mailed a check to PO Box182 Merion PA 19066
It was returned “unable to deliver as addressed”
What is your snailmail address?
Given the last administration’s attitude to Israel, I cannot understand why anyone with some feeling for Israel can vote Democratic.
Add me please
You are brave and dogged.
Thank you for your efforts.
How do we get conservative Never Trumpers to give the man his due and liberal Jews as well?
The last administration did all it could to harm Israel and destroy our freedom.
It cannot be a coincidence that you did not win this fight until Obama was gone from office. And I shudder to think how frustrating it probably would have been under a Hillary adminstration since I do not expect you would have won your case had she won.
Don’t ever stop.
