The Mizrachi-Hapoel Hamizrachi Federation of Great Britain adopted a resolution criticizing the World Zionist Organization Executive’s recent decision to withdraw its invitation to Dr. Nahum Goldmann, president of the World Jewish Congress, to address a special session of the forthcoming World Zionist Congress in Jerusalem.
