Reject Jewish Voice for Peace

I am writing to express my deep concern over the tokenization of the Jewish community by Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP).

JVP is an extremist group that weaponizes the Jewish identity of some of their members to call for “death to Israel” and tout a “Free Palestine by any means necessary.”

The overwhelming majority of Jews support the existence and security of the State of Israel as the national homeland of the Jewish people. Polling consistently shows that more than 85 percent of Jewish Americans support Israel’s right to exist and defend itself. JVP’s relentless anti-Zionist rhetoric, which calls for the elimination of Israel as a Jewish state, represents a fringe view that is rejected by the community.

I believe in the right of Israel to exist, and I reject any movement that seeks to undermine its legitimacy or security.
