These are dangers that we must ensure our elected leaders are paying attention to now.
Dear Friend of Israel,
Iranian-backed Palestinian terrorists are relentless in their attacks against Israelis.
Last Friday, two brothers (age six and eight) and a 20-year-old newlywed were killed in a car-ramming attack in Jerusalem…while three weeks ago, seven Israelis were killed in a shooting outside a Jerusalem synagogue.
This continues a trend from 2022, when Israel faced a significant increase in terror attacks, from the senseless murders of Israeli civilians to indiscriminate rocket fire from Gaza.
We must ensure America’s leaders are paying attention to the serious threats that Israel faces. But we can only do this and other important work with support from pro-Israel Americans like you.
Our work is needed now more than ever, especially as terror attacks against Israel continue to rise.
Last year alone: 31 Israelis were killed in a wave of shooting, stabbing, bombing and car ramming attacks…Palestinian terrorists were involved in 281 serious terror attacks…and the IDF reports it thwarted more than 500 additional attacks.
Beyond street level attacks, terrorists in Gaza fired over 1,100 rockets into Israel over just three days in August, targeting population centers including Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.
And in December, the U.N. agency that provides aid to Palestinians discovered a terror tunnel under a school it had built in Gaza.
These are dangers that we must ensure our elected leaders are paying attention to. Israel cannot afford for us to wait. We must take action now.
We can only do this and other important work with Congress because of your investment in AIPAC.
Sincerely,
Brian Shankman
Chief Strategy Director for National Affairs
