Leon Dulzin acted personally over the weekend to cancel a decision by the Jewish Agency to rent the Binyanei Ha’ooma convention hall here to Rabbi Meir Kahane’s extremist Kach Party for its convention next month. Dulzin, chairman of the Jewish Agency and World Zionist Organization Executives, was alerted to the deal by MK Yair Izaban of Mapam. He expressed shock, declaring it was unthinkable to rent the Jewish Agency-owned hall to a “racist, un-Zionist movement” that was contrary to the essence of Zionism and democracy.
