American Jews: Urge U.S. to Pursue a Negotiated Resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict

Palestinian President Abbas and Israeli Prime Minister Sharon; President Bush
 Recent public opinion polls indicate that the Israeli and Palestinian people are calling upon their leaders to "seek peace, and pursue it." In the U.S., polls consistently confirm that the majority of American Jews support a negotiated two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Together, we as American Jews must raise our voices in support of a proactive U.S. policy that is both pro-Israel and pro-negotiated peace. Accordingly, we urge the President and U.S. Congress to:

  • Endorse the timely and complete withdrawal of Israeli settlers and military forces from the Gaza Strip and from the four West Bank settlements this summer;

  • Ensure that the Gaza disengagement is the first step towards a return to the negotiating table by opposing any Israeli or Palestinian unilateral actions that prejudice future negotiations such as Israeli settlement expansion and a Palestinian return to violence; and

  • Expand direct aid to the Palestinian Authority for critical economic development assistance, as an incentive for continuing to rein in violent factions and enact political and economic reform.
These steps are critical to moving the peace process forward.

Dear Mr. President, Members of Congress:

We are American Jews who care deeply about Israel and seek a negotiated resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. As such, we believe the U.S. government needs to be an active partner in the peace process.

We urge both Congress and the Administration to:

  • Endorse the timely and complete withdrawal of Israeli settlers and military forces from the Gaza Strip and from the four West Bank settlements by the end of summer, 2005;

  • Ensure that the Gaza disengagement is the first step towards a return to the negotiating table by opposing any Israeli or Palestinian unilateral actions that prejudice future negotiations such as Israeli settlement expansion and a Palestinian return to violence; and

  • Expand direct aid to the Palestinian Authority for critical economic development assistance, as an incentive for continuing to rein in violent factions and enact political and economic reform.

Thank you for your consideration of this important matter.

Sincerely,

[your name]
