Israel, Jordan, Egypt and Saudi Arabia in March 1988, and
have since made regular visits to the region. In 1989, Mr.
Abraham and Congressman Owens founded the Center for
Middle East Peace & Economic Cooperation, and Mr.
Abraham has served as the Center's Chairman since its

Derech Etz Chaim Severed from YU Israel Program
by Yehoshua Levine
Yeshiva officials recently terminated Yeshivat Derech Etz
Chaim’s affiliation with the S. Daniel Abraham Joint Israel
Program after discovering “compelling evidence” that a rabbi
integrally associated with the yeshiva has a history of
allegedly sexually abusing and engaging in cult-like behavior
with his students. The decision, which took effect on
February 13 and was made public in a letter sent to parents
of current Derech Etz Chaim (DEC) students, followed an
intensive international investigation in which the University
concluded that maintaining its association with DEC would
be “betraying the trust between Yeshiva University and its
students.”
