It is also registered in the USA (as FELNET), although it does not have a website, with its reported activity revolving solely around fundraising. Aims and ActivitiesELNET is a non-partisan organization, that works to improve strategic relations between Israel and European Union countries. ELNET has activity and presence in Germany, France, Spain, and Poland, as well as an office opening in Brussels.[4] The organization has interacted with European officials on numerous occasions until 2015: "ELNET has hosted more than 50 European delegations of parliament members, top government officials, and other European policy leaders to Israel. ELNET has also held more than 20 strategic meetings in Europe, and has engaged more than 500 participants in its effort to enhance European-Israeli understanding and cooperation"[4] ELNET's role was defined as "encouraging Jewish political activism".[5] ELNET operated in Europe using similar means and mechanisms similar to the ones used by AIPAC in the U.S.: "ELNET members use education, financial contributions and voting power to draw European governments closer to Israel […] ELNET's founders conceived it as a European American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) [...] ELNET duplicated the secrets of AIPAC's success in European capitals."[6]FELNET hosted in the United States Manuel Valls, a former French Prime Minister, in order to raise money.[7] ManagementELNET was founded by Raanan Eliaz.[1][3][4][8] Raanan Eliaz was a deputy director at the Israeli National Security Council, and the Hudson Institute, Washington D.C.[9][10] The organization posts an American Larry Hochberg, a co-founder of Children's Bargain Town USA, a small chain of toy stores that operated in Chicago, as the Chairman and co-founder of Felnet.[11][12] Additional board members of Felnet include Andrew S Hochberg (son of Larry Hochberg), Leonard Foxman, Joseph Feinberg, Kenneth A Ruby, Jerry Rosenberg, Carole Mostow (secretary) and Lee Rosenblum, who is described both as Treasurer of Felnet and as an Executive Director of Felnet. The organization also posts the following Advisory Board Members: US Senator Joseph Lieberman, US Senator Mark Kirk, Former US Congresswoman Shelley Berkley, Former US Congressman Howard Berman, Former US Senator Norm Coleman and Former US Deputy National Security Advisor Elliot Abrams. It also includes Dan Meridor, a former Israeli minister, and Pierre Dassas.[11] Founding
Controversy and CriticismFinancing Elections in EuropeELNET has interfered with the 2012 French presidential elections. ELNET had made a financial contribution to (now former president) François Hollande, bypassing American laws and using American contributions to provide political donations.[6] Working with Holocaust-deniers, embarrassing IsraelDefaming sources accused the organization to have provided assurances to work with Poland's Holocaust Deniers.[17][18] Steven J. Rosen and Espionage{{Main|Lawrence Franklin espionage scandal}}ELNET's advisor Steven J. Rosen,[19] was indicted in August 2005 for alleged violations of the Espionage Act, but charges were dropped. The FBI conducted an espionage investigation accusing Rosen for disclosing classified information.[20] According to AIPAC sources, Rosen and Weissman asked Kohr to give the information to Elliott Abrams, the then senior Middle East official on the National Security Council.[21][22] Elliott Abrams is an Advisory Board Member of Felnet.[11]Rosen later accused AIPAC for "throwing him under the bus" and filed a $21 million claim against AIPAC [23] Conflicts with the Israeli Government and Prime MinisterA senior director in ELNET, Eran Etzion, Head of ELNET's [24] Israel's Iran policy and directly contradicted stated policies of ELNET.[25] Etzion was fired from the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs over leaking sensitive information.[26] He was investigated by Israel's Security Agency (Shin Bet) for allegation and his appointment as a deputy Ambassador has been terminated.[27] [28]See also
