It is very likely that most media will not report the results of a new survey of Palestinian-Arabs taken by a Palestinian-Arab polling organization that found that the most popular person to succeed Mahmoud Abbas as the head of the Palestinian Authority is a five-time convicted murderer, that more than 60% want Abbas to resign, and that Fatah would barely beat Hamas in a parliamentary election.
Be sure to let others know about these results!
Poll Shows Palestinians Want Convicted Terrorist to Succeed Abbas
Those hoping that the Palestinians’ eroding support for Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas could be a stepping stone will be disappointed in a new poll showing that Palestinians support a convicted terrorist to succeed Abbas.
A July 4 poll conducted by the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research Center (PCPSR) found that a plurality of Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip support Marwan Barghouti, who is currently serving five life sentences in an Israeli prison over terrorism charges, at 30 percent. The runner-up is Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh at 23 percent.

Shalom ZOA Members, Friends and Supporters of Israel,
Greater Philadelphia ZOA had a special night earlier this week, as you can see below in the photo collages. We want to thank event benefactor Judy Taylor, and our patrons, and an anonymous donor, and all of you who participated in and attended “An Evening With Frank Luntz.” We are also most grateful to the many volunteers who helped out before and during the event.
We hope all of you reading this will be a part of Greater Philadelphia ZOA’s next big event: Our 2018 Gala, scheduled for October 17, at the Hilton Hotel on City Avenue. It will be our annual night to celebrate America and Israel, Zionism and Patriotism, and of course the special pro-Israel advocates who we will honor during the event.
We will announce our honorees shortly.
You can buy your Gala tickets now, and also promote your business or service in the pages of our Gala Tribute Book and Ad Journal. To reserve your space and for tickets, please call the Greater Philadelphia ZOA Office at 610-660-9466.

Greater Philadelphia ZOA is looking for volunteers to make calls for our upcoming events.
You can either make them from our Bala Cynwyd office, or wherever is convenient for you.
If you can lend us your time and talent, please call us at 610-660-9466.
Thank you!
You already know the educational and advocacy work that ZOA does. Help others find out about us and all the good that we do. Help expose your friends, neighbors, family and others to the truth about Israel and the war against Israel and the Jewish People. They won’t get it from most of the media, nor many politicians or even educators for the most part. But they will get it and understand it from ZOA – with your help. Host a parlor meeting or a public event with one of our speakers.

Thanks to a donor, tickets to Dr. Luntz’s presentation are just $10.
We still have some openings remaining for our exclusive Patrons’ Reception with Luntz, where you can meet him, speak with him, and enjoy glatt-kosher foods and wines from Israel. It will be a great event, and it includes a ticket to Dr. Luntz’s presentation. It begins at 6 p.m. Reception tickets are just $200 each.
Luntz’s audio/visual presentation will be both enjoyable and enlightening as Dr. Luntz will help each of us be even better advocates for Israel, and teach us communication skills that we can use in everything that we do.

To purchase tickets by check, send a check made out to “ZOA” to: ZOA, PO Box 56, Bala Cynwyd, PA 19004.
