Sam Goldberg knows why he’s hooked on JNF

As the Mountain States president of Jewish National Fund-USA, it was a no-brainer that Sam Goldberg would show up at the international convention of JNF in Denver last December. It was also to be expected that a throng of anti-Israel demonstrators would greet Goldberg and his fellow attendees, carrying signs, chanting and hurling invective, some of which not only slammed Israel’s response to the Oct. 7 massacre by Hamas but which were clearly anti-Semitic. Less obvious, perhaps, was Goldberg’s fashion choice for the occasion: He wore a bright blue blazer, adorned with Israeli flags.
