This figure represents the lowest amount spent for any region in the nation. Donors should rest assured that all moneys donated for a specific project have and will continue to go directly towards that purpose. All tree donations have been directed to planting in Israel. We are confident that with input from lay leaders and professional staff across the country we will approach the 21st century with a stronger, more efficient and effective organization. With our existing infrastructure and greater public support for JNF's mission, we are now in a position to send considerably more funds to Israel and develop a love for Am Yisrael and the land of Israel among our people.

The rude behavior of French President Jacques Chirac during his recent visit to the Middle East, to Israel and its territories, is absolutely nauseating. His fawning obeisance to the Arabs, studied and public insults to the Israelis and unhelpful suggestions to Israel to divest itself of the Golan, to promote the creation of a Palestinian state and to divide Jerusalem, were insulting. Their comic-opera army played dead after the first assault by the Germans. Having allowed themselves to be occupied, they cravenly curried favor with their conquerors, by rounding up Jews for extermination, with a zeal that even astonished the hard-bitten Nazis. Rather than making atonement for the crimes committed against the Jews during World War II, Jacques Chirac, in his pursuit of Arab petro-dollars, is a worthy successor in the same shameful tradition.
