RESEARCH FINDINGS :
It appears that the British based Lewis Trust Group is one of the companies developing hotels in the Aqaba Region. David Lewis the Chairman of the company is a prominent supporter of "Israel". Mr Lewis maintained that he is involved in the joint "Israel- Jordanian" tourist project "because Shimon Peres asked me to be" [2].
Mr Lewis's activities have included the raising of money for the Jewish National Fund, a primary agency in the historic and continuing displacement of our Palestinian brothers from their land, ensuring only Jews use it. He is also a member of the ISRAEL-BRITAIN BUSINESS COUNCIL. This organisation is dedicated to the development of the Zionist State, by channelling British capital to the occupied territories for the benefit of the Zionists and the exploitation of the Palestinians.

In 1998 Mr. David Lewis, President of Isrotel Hotel Management Lewis Trust Group Ltd , received the Jubilee Award by the Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu. This is the highest tribute ever awarded by the "State of Israel" in recognition of those individuals and organizations, that through their investments and trade relationships, have done the most to strengthen the Israeli economy.
