| Take Action Now! Condemn Palestinian unilateral action at U.N. |
The Palestinian decision to go to the UN was a violation of the Oslo Accords and an expansion of efforts to attack, isolate, and delegitimize Israel.
House members are being asked to sign a Congressional letter calling on President Obama to send a clear message to Mahmoud Abbas and the PLO for going to the UN. The letter is being circulated by Reps. Ros-Lehtinen(R-FL), Berman (D-CA), Royce (R-CA), and Engel (D-NY).
Tell your Representative to sign the Ros-Lehtinen/Berman/Engel/Royce letter.
The letter calls on President Obama to send a clear message and to respond strongly to this action by closing the PLO office in the U.S. and withdrawing the U.S. Consul General from Jerusalem. This will show the international community that the US will stand by its ally, Israel and that such actions have consequences.
We call on President Obama to reaffirm our commitment to maintaining and enforcing U.S. Laws that require withholding U.S. contributions from any international forum that grants membership to the PLO.
Tell your Representative: now is the time to support our ally, and take these actions.
The letter also calls for a continuation of the policy blocking all U.S. funding for any UN agency or international forum that grants the Palestinians membership.
Tell your Representative: support U.S. interests by supporting Israel
This letter comes at a time when the Netanyahu government announced the approval of housing construction for its citizens on Israeli land. While the international community is silent in the face of the ongoing slaughter of tens of thousands of citizens in Syria by the Assad government, it jumps to condemn Israel. The lack of any clear and firm response by the United States to both the world condemnation of Israel and the real, actual threats facing the Middle East will only make the world a more dangerous place for all of us.

Just fill in these blanks, print and fax.) | Dear Representative _____________: SUBJECT: Please sign the Ros-Lehtinen/Berman/Engel/Royce letter I write to urge you to sign the letter to President Obama being circulated by Reps. Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL), Berman (D-CA). Royce (R-CA) and Engel (D-NY) imploring the Administration to take appropriate measures in response to recent actions by the Palestine Liberation Organization ("PLO") that were hostile to Israel and detrimental to peace in the Middle East. In recent weeks the PLO has engaged in outrageous conduct, including applying to the United Nations General Assembly for non-member observer status in defiance of U.S. policy and seeking reconciliation with the murderous Hamas regime, which is classified as a terrorist organization under American and international law. The PLO continues to incite hatred and violence against Israel and Jews worldwide in its schools, media and mosques. It names schools, streets and sports teams after suicide bombers. It continues to finance terrorists who have murdered and maimed Israelis and Americans. The sad and unavoidable truth is that neither the PLO nor its President, Mahmoud Abbas, is "moderate" and a partner for peace with Israel. It is long past time to forgo wishful thinking. There must be consequences for the PLO's continuing war against Israel and defiance of U.S. policy. The Administrations should shutter the PLO office in Washington, D.C., summon home the Consul General in Jerusalem who otherwise assists the PLO, and cease all funding of the PLO. The American taxpayer should not be asked to fund a terrorist organization like the PLO. Please be one of the signers of the letter to President Obama. Very truly yours, Sign your name and provide your residential address. | If you prefer calling, you can refer to the points made in the suggested text and urge your representative to support Israel and sign the Ros-Lehtinen/Berman/Royce/Engel letter.
