Tzachi Hanegbi plays dumb

Tzachi HaNegbi (left, with Livni and Olmert) posts on his Facebook page that he was contacted by Im Tirtzu's Ronen Shoval and urged not to attend the J Street convention next month (link in Hebrew, translation mine).

#JStreetFail J Street cancels event in Boston due to lack of attendance
