“ZBT was founded by staunch champions of a Jewish state. I believe that ZBT brothers today should be strong advocates of Israel, America’s democratic ally in the heart of a dangerous Middle East.
“That is why I hope that ZBT will educate brothers about Israel and ensure that every chapter can participate in its Israel Advocacy Summit.”
