"Is the future of Zionism?" (interview NEWSru.co.il and RTVi), in the opinion of experts, the people of Israel today threatened serious dangers, some of which are under active consideration (Iranian threat) or not Setup aloud. The "neprogovorennyh" is weakening the United States and the possibility that America would lose superpower status. The report, entitled "The Jewish people in 2030," it is with vyosokoy likely that the number of Jews in the world is unlikely to increase substantially by then. It also claimed that Jews today are lacking quality leadership, political and spiritual leaders seeking to improve the situation of Israel. The lack of these leaders is a key to the conference. It is ironic that on this issue will be precisely those who are considered leaders of the Jews. At the same time, the president of the Union of Jewish Communities Steve Hoffman denies lack of leadership. In his view, the Jewish people, there were many "professional managers". Those invited to the conference of the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Israel Tsipi Livni, Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak, the head of military intelligence (AMAN), Amos Yadlin, the head of AIPAC, director of the Anti-League, President American Jewish Committee, prominent businessmen and philanthropists, diplomats-all 120 people. The speakers of the government of Israel, Ehud Olmert, opposition leader Benjamin Netaniyagu and President Shimon Peres. The conference will be given on the following topics : the Jewish community, Jewish leadership, geopolitics, demography, Jewish identity, as well as Israel and the Diaspora. Note that the General Director of the Institute of Policy Planning Jewish people Avinoam Bar-Yosef is quite skeptical about the future of an entire people. In a telephone interview with the Jerusalem Bar-Yosef said : "Until now, the Jews have survived without any planning. But on the other hand, it is possible that if we had planned, the situation today would be better.
