Friends,

You might not know it from some of the opinions you hear from that
relative at Thanksgiving, but the truth is that most Jewish Americans
share pretty similar views when it comes to the Israeli-Palestinian
conflict.

Whatever our differences -- and there are plenty of topics we disagree on!
-- the vast majority want to see Israel thrive as a safe, democratic
homeland for the Jewish people. A proud beacon for human rights and for
our Jewish values.

We want the Israeli-Palestinian conflict peacefully resolved. We want an
end to terror attacks and rockets. An end to settlement expansion, home
demolitions and the daily injustices of occupation. We know both Israelis
and Palestinians deserve self-determination, and that both Israeli and
Palestinian families deserve to live with equality, peace and freedom.

But powerful forces on the Israeli right -- and their supporters in the
United States -- see things differently.

Benjamin Netanyahu, his extreme right-wing partners and the settlement
movement are increasingly open about their goal of building and bulldozing
their way to permanent, undemocratic control of the West Bank. It’s a plan
for permanent occupation. An endless cycle of conflict and injustice. A
future with no hope for peace and, ultimately, without liberal democracy.

They and their American backers will do almost anything to get their way,
and to silence the voice of our pro-Israel, pro-peace, pro-democracy
majority.

But together, we know that being true to Israel’s founding values means
championing equality, justice and democracy. And we know that if we stand
as one, we’ll be a transformative political force.

To be a part of the fight in this crucial moment, I hope you’ll consider a
contribution to J Street of $18, $36 or
$54 -- or any other amount -- as we
approach Giving Tuesday. [ [link removed] ]You can select a contribution here >>

The majority of Jews around the world support a safe, just and democratic
Israel. The majority of us know that the far-right’s destructive policies
bring nothing but more hate, suffering and fear. And we’ll do all we can
to stand up to them.

That’s what it means to be pro-Israel, pro-democracy and pro-peace, and
that’s the vision we’re working for in Washington and across the country.

Thank you, sincerely, for your support. Every contribution, of any amount,
strengthens our movement.

Wishing you and yours a Happy Thanksgiving weekend,

Logan Bayroff
VP of Communications, J Street
