Faced with the prospect of an investigation by New York Attorney General Elliott Spitzer?s office into its financial dealings, the World Jewish Congress is close to working out an agreement with its chief inside critic that would include holding the full and independent audit he has been demanding, The Jewish Week has learned.
Sources close to the issue say that Stephen Herbits, transition director of the WJC, met this week in Israel with Isi Leibler, a former leader of the Australian Jewish community living in Israel who WJC officials sought to remove as senior vice president this fall for alleging financial improprieties within the venerable organization.
In what appears to be a dramatic change of course, the WJC officials now seem ready to credit Leibler for his call for internal reform after vilifying him for months as a malcontent intent on embarrassing the organization.
