	Is James Zogby a "Builder for Peace"? - Middle East Quarterly
		Zogby's effort failed and Abu Eain went on to spend four years of a longer sentence in an Israeli jail (and was released in the prisoner exchange of 1985, when Israel traded 1,500 Palestinians for three of its soldiers).
		Zogby now portrays his disillusionment with the peace process as a consequence of Binyamin Netanyahu's election in May 1996, but in fact his severe criticism of the Israeli government dates right back to the early months after the Oslo accords were signed, when others were still positive, if not euphoric, about the peace process.
		Zogby is the outsider Arabs' insider who does not lose sight of his goal in Arab politics even as he becomes increasingly involved in American ethnic politics.

		James Zogby: It appears that both Israel and the U.S. have accepted a truce and a ceasefire as a way to pave the path for the "road map." The PA simply cannot engage in an inter-Palestinian civil war.
		James Zogby: If a year from now, Palestinians are freer, economically prospering and seeing that a viable independent state is in their grasp, then groups that expouse violence will lose support that they currently have.
		James Zogby: In all the polling that we have done in the Arab world, we find that the major issue driving down Arab opinion of America is U.S. insensitivity to the rights of Palestinians and U.S. "blind" support for Israel.

		Zogby had forecast an 8.1 percent Clinton margin, and the actual margin was 8.4 percent.
		Zogby describes his personal political history as "very left Democrat." His brother James, head of the Arab American Institute, was an adviser to Al Gore's presidential campaign.
		In part, Zogby is just testing messages for interest groups, which he reasonably calls a "legitimately defined methodology." But Zogby is also trading on his reputation as a legitimate, media-certified pollster to help groups disseminate inflated claims about public opinion based on inventive wording.

		Brothers John and James Zogby, the head of the polling organisation and a the Arab American Institute, are two examples of how slick packaging and public relations are enabling them to push their pro Wahabi and anti American agenda as a and manipulate American public and political opinion.
		Zogby's lovefest with Wahabists begs the question as to what financial and business 'perks' both he and his brother John are enjoying as a result of their dhimmitude.One answer mounts to a gift of $300,000 dollars by Saudi Prince Alaweed ibn Talal to James Zogby's Arab American Institute,which is listed a non profit organisation.

		DR JAMES ZOGBY, ARAB AMERICAN INSTITUTE PRESIDENT: Well, I think the US is taking a very short-sighted approach to this conflict and diminishing our role to that of coat holder and cheerleader for Israel's war in Lebanon right now.
		DR JAMES ZOGBY, ARAB AMERICAN INSTITUTE PRESIDENT: I see - I'm not one who sees history repeating itself infinitely in the same way, but certainly there are echoes here of what happened before and I shudder having lived through that history then, seeing it play out again.

		James Zogby said that a case in point is that the state of Michigan, with its large Arab American community, now constitutes a sizeable voting constituency.
		According to John Zogby, who has done extensive research on American attitudes to the Middle East problem, American public opinion generally, and not only Arab American public opinion, can be mobilised in a manner more favourable to, or at least more informed on, the Arab side of the Middle East conflict.
		James Zogby refuted what he described as the widespread notion in the Arab world that Zionist propaganda has conclusively won American public opinion over to the side of Israel.

		Today, Zogby International's polling reputation may be second only to that of the hallowed Gallup Organization, which makes having a Zogby Poll extremely desirable for advocacy groups across the political spectrum.
		Yet Zogby is right about his freedom from regulation; he is not compelled to reveal his sponsors.
		In his defense, Zogby says he has refused to work for some clients, including ones who were pro-Confederate Flag and militantly anti-gay, and emphasizes that he ultimately controls question wording.

	How the Poll Results on Iraq Were Manipulated \| MetaFilter
		The last poll results James Zogby mentions, about US military approval, Arab forces, attacks against Americans etc. are either form a different poll or not even mentioned as questions in either the summary or the analytic cross-tabulations by demographic variable.
		James is not John but it would seem them apples land land side by side in their fall from the fraternal tree--but I suspect, that for professional reasons alone, John Zogby is in no position to make any public political commentary at all.
		Additionally, if Zogby Poll is selling it's complete set of raw data from the Iraq survey sells for $600 a copy, one might surmise that not all the questions asked or answers given have not been made public.

		NEW YORK- Arab-American lobbyist James Zogby's campaign to have the State Department hire more Arab-Americans, on the grounds that there are too many Jews in the Department, is an expression of "crude anti-Semitism," according to Abraham Foxman, national director of the Anti-Defamation League.
		The Jewish Telegraphic Agency reported on May 17, 1999 that Foxman called Zogby's effort "crude anti-Semitism." The JTA continued: "[Zogby's] campaign is not only about jobs for Arab Americans, it's also about the record number of Jews working in the State Department Middle East bureau.
		To this day, Zogby continues to publicly defend Ziad Abu Eain, an Arab terrorist convicted of a 1979 bombing in which two Israelis were murdered.

	Understanding America's Right Wing :: Part Two :: (by James Zogby) - Media Monitors Network
		While a small band of influential neo-conservatives have played a significant role in shaping the foreign policy outlook of today's Republican Party, it is the religious right that has come to set that party's domestic agenda.
		But even with these positive and commendable efforts, it is, thus far, the organized forces of the religious right and their neo-conservative allies who are still defining the course of the U.S.-Middle East policy debate.

	The friendly Republicans - article by Daniel Pipes
		On one side, Zogby found, "every Republican candidate has promised to make the embassy move a priority for his administration." In contrast, both Gore and Bradley "have taken more cautious stands," not endorsing a move of the embassy outside the context of Israel's negotiations with the Palestinians.
		All four leading candidates endorse the current tough approach to Iraq, leading Zogby to describe their outlook as one of "near consensus." But Republicans take what Zogby calls "a characteristically tougher approach," with all of them advocating steps to bring down the regime of Saddam Hussein, something the two Democrats shy away from.
		Zogby can rail against the candidates' agreement as "pandering" to Jewish voters with "worn-out cliches" and "dangerous and provocative posturing," but he can do little about it.
