Ambassador Dore Gold is President of the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs (JCPA). He is a former Israeli diplomat and foreign policy advisor to Benjamin Netanyahu.[1] He was a founding member of One Jerusalem, a pro-Likud pressure group dedicated to maintaining an undivided Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.[2][3] Gold was the publisher, as of May 2006, of NGO Monitor, a JCPA-based project which accuses the NGO community of "gross distortions of the humanitarian dimension of the Arab-Israeli conflict."[4][5]
Gold has links to a number of international neoconservative organisations. He served on the International Advisory Board of the American Enterprise Institute's New Atlantic Initiative and is an international patron of the Henry Jackson Society.[6][7]
Contents
Early life
Dore Gold was born in 1953 in Hartford, Connecticut. He was educated at Mount Hermon School, Northfield, Massachussets. He completed a BA in Oriental Studies - Islam at Columbia College in 1975. He went on to obtain an MA (1976) and a PhD (1984) from Columbia University.[8]
Gold became an Israeli citizen in 1980 and served in the Israel Defense Forces.[9]
Career
In 1985, Gold served as senior research associate at Tel Aviv University's Moshe Dayan Center for Middle Eastern and African Studies. Later, he was appointed Director of the U.S. Foreign and Defense Policy Project at the Jaffee Center for Strategic Studies at Tel Aviv University.[10]
In 1991, Gold was an advisor to the Israeli delegation at the Madrid Peace Conference.[11] From June 1996 to June 1997, he served as Foreign Policy Adviser to former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. In this capacity he acted as a special envoy to Palestinian Authority, Egypt, Jordan and others in the Arab world. He was also involved in negotiations leading up to the Hebron Agreement and the Note for the Record.[12]
UN Ambassador
From 1997 to 1999, Gold was the Israeli ambassador to the United Nations.[13] In 1998, Gold served as a member of the Israeli delegation at the Wye River negotiations between Israel, the PLO, and then U.S. President Bill Clinton at the Wye River Plantation in Maryland.[14]
Writing in his weekly column on October 8, 1999, New York Times op-ed writer and former editor, A.M. Rosenthal, noted Israel's efforts to join the European regional group at the UN and commented: "Dore Gold, leaving soon after a tour of duty as one of the best U.N. representatives Israel ever had, points out that membership in regional groups is a requirement for nomination to the Security Council."[15]
Later career
Since 2000, Gold has served as president of the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs. From 2001 to 2003, he served as an advisor to former Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, notably at the Aqaba Summit with President George W. Bush.
In 2004 a New York speech by Gold was disrupted by peace activists:
- "Dore Gold is an architect of the spin that the killing of Palestinian civilians and the destruction of Palestinian society somehow constitute a battle between two equal sides," said Sam Miller-Eisenstein of Jews Against the Occupation. "Palestinians don’t have tanks – they have stones, a few militants, and what remains of their dignity. This is not a war between Palestinians and Israelis; it’s a brutal occupation."[16]
Gold was considered for the post of Israeli ambassador to Washington in 2004. UPI's Martin Sieff initially reported that he was Ariel Sharon's first choice for the role:
However, After Sharon and Peres agreed to appoint Danny Ayalon, Sieff wrote:
- Gold wanted the job very badly and his friends first undermined Ivry by encouraging a press campaign trashing him in both the United States and Israel, and then boomed his name.
- But insiders around Prime Minister Sharon said Gold was never the top foreign policy adviser that he made himself out to be and his close ties to Netanyahu made him suspect in Sharon's eyes. "Whenever an important meeting was held to take any key decision, he was never in the room," one of them said.
- Once Netanyahu humiliated Sharon by winning a Likud Central Committee vote against him on the issue of a Palestinian state a few weeks ago, Gold's political fate was sealed. His suspected continued close ties to Netanyahu put him totally out of the running in Sharon's eyes, Likud insiders said.[18]
Congressional testimony
In July of 2003, Gold testified as an expert before the U.S. Senate Committee on Governmental Affairs on Saudi Arabia's alleged role in providing ideological and financial support for international terrorism.[19]
In response, Prince Bandar bin Sultan, Saudi Ambassador to the United States, remarked, "It should be known that Dore Gold is not an expert on Saudi society, faith or culture. He is simply hatred's scribe.
- "Dore Gold seeks to instill fear and animosity among friends and allies. While others are working to eliminate incitement and promote peace, Dore Gold works to perpetuate hate and conflict. He has opposed virtually every major peace initiative over the past two decades.
- "Dore Gold has carried on a campaign of lies, and unsubstantiated accusations. His goal is to malign the Saudi government and drive a wedge between the United States and Saudi Arabia. Ironically, this is the very same objective shared by Osama bin Laden."[20]
Quotes
- "...the West's campaign has overlooked a critical component of terrorism -- that is, the precise source of the terror, the ideology that motivates individuals and groups to slaughter thousands of innocent people, and perhaps even to take their own lives."[21]
- "Unfortunately Israel has to lose more innocent civilians to prove to the world the necessity and justice of the fence."[22]
