Will King Charles "The Resetter" outshine China;s diplomatic miracles and broker peace in Israel ?
Israel needs a reset -- Go to it Charlie :)
Israel's President, Isaac Herzog, a friend of Charles, was said to have been personally involved in lobbying the King to visit.
Herzog announces that his office has developed “a brand new initiative called ‘Kol Ha’am—Voice of the People: The President’s Initiative for Worldwide Jewish Dialogue,'” which he describes as a newly-launched global council for Jewish dialogue.
“You might call it a Jewish Davos: nonpartisan and apolitical, Voice of the People will be a collaborative forum. One that can hold and reflect the full and diverse range of Jewish voices. It will be a place where we can engage in serious, sensitive and strategic discussions on the most complex and pressing issues facing our people,” Herzog says. He does not specify the place, time and scope of the initiative.
