leaders of major Jewish organizations  

The YESHA Council is consistently asked to travel abroad and represent the Jewish communities of Judea & Samaria.  A typical example was Dani Dayan's recent trip to Washington, DC where he met with elected officials in Congress, think-tanks, pro-Israel activist organizations and of course, the media.

However, the trip itself was identified by Israel's left-wing paper of choice, Haaretz, as a trailblazing effort by the YESHA community to penetrate DC to unprecedented levels.  The US-based media was also interested as evidenced by an interview with Dani in the left-wing Salon and another describing the trip and the YESHA Council's overall efforts in the Free Beacon.  Dani's meeting at the Council on Foreign Relations was attended by a wide spectrum of foreign policy experts and influential pundit, including representatives from the Jordanian government and others who were more hostile to the YESHA Council's approach to peaceful co-existence, including the following blog in PeaceFare.

The YESHA Council will continue to present the accurate depiction of the residents of Judea and Samaria and describe/explain the damage that the current peace process is doing to the prospects of long-term peace, wherever the YESHA Council is invited to participate.
