Dear Friends of Peace Now,
We side with you on the occasion of the demonstration being organized by the Israeli peace movement on June 4th.
This is the time for an Israeli peace initiative that responds positively to President Obama’s proposals and the need to recognize the right to independence of the Palestinians.
The withdrawal of the Israeli army from the territories, the removal of settlements and the agreement on secure borders between Israel and a Palestinian state through negotiations are vital to the future of Israel as a Jewish and democratic state, which is essential to the Israelis and to us Diaspora Jews.
