And now for the real pro-Israel
Obama and McCain might not have been there to give bellicose speeches, but just a couple of weeks ago, over 140 Jewish activists from across the country took part in Brit Tzedek v’Shalom’s largest-ever DC conference, bringing the real pro-Israel, pro-peace message to the nation’s capital.
The conference included 115 Congressional visits, presentations by MK Yossi Beilin and Mideast analyst Daniel Levy, interactive activist trainings, and speeches by U.S. Representatives Henry Waxman (D-CA), Charles Boustany (R-LA), and Mike Capuano (D-MA).
Check out this six-minute highlight reel for a taste of what an American Jewish grassroots peace movement can look like.
Where are the Palestinian activists lobbying for a Peace which benefits both sides mutually in the manner of coexistance? Without that, I find this type of lobbying very dangerous. It’s also peculiar that this particular organization would chose the Knesset member who represents secular Israel to present.
Woo! I’m in that video like 5 times.
I’m also feeling the choice of music.
