About the Israel Allies Foundation
Pioneered by MK Rabbi Binyamin Elon, the Israel Allies Foundation (IAF) is dedicated to the purpose of promoting communication and information sharing between parliamentarians and legislators the world over who share a belief that the State of Israel has the right to exist in peace within secure borders.
In 2004 a group of Israeli Knesset members gathered together to form the Knesset Christian Allies Caucus. Spanning the spectrum of political parties in Israel, the MK's came together to acknowledge the growing strength of the support for Israel by politicians and leaders around the globe. The Caucus was formed to develop better ties between Knesset Members and pro-Israel leaders worldwide.
Then in 2006 the U.S. House of Representatives formed the first reciprocal caucus to the Knesset Caucus, the Congressional Israel Allies Caucus. Since then additional caucuses have been formed in Uruguay, Brazil, South Africa, Finland, England, Germany, The Philippines, South Korea, Canada and list continues to grow.
The Israel Allies Foundation was formed to become the umbrella for coordinated activities of these caucuses from around the globe. Together they work to bring a unified voice on issues regarding Israel world-wide.
