On the eve of the first World Jewish Congress Assembly in three years, the group's chief spokesman said he welcomes the prospect of an investigation by New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer?s office into its financial dealings but regrets the failure to resolve internally a conflict over past governance.
But the drama of the event may well be over the election of officers, since part of the rationale for holding the meeting at this time was to oust Isi Leibler as senior vice president.
Leibler, a former leader of the Australian Jewish community now living in Israel, has alleged financial improprieties in the WJC.
WJC officials insist that the claims are without merit and have caused the organization needless negative attention.
