In partnership with ARZA Canada
Our friends in the Reform MOVEMENT
of Israel are CALLING
on Diaspora Jewry to STAND
with them NOW
for Israel’s DEMOCRACY
and for the VALUES
enshrined in Israel’s DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE.
For more than SEVEN MONTHS,
MILLIONS of Israelis have been peacefully DEMONSTRATING to PROTECT:
- WOMEN’S RIGHTS
- THE RIGHTS OF REFORM, CONSERVATIVE, MODERN ORTHODOX AND SECULAR JEWS
- LGBTQ+ RIGHTS
- THE RIGHTS OF PALESTINIAN CITIZENS OF ISRAEL
- THE RECOGNITION AND RIGHTS OF THOSE WHO HAVE CONVERTED TO JUDAISM
- AND ISRAEL’S DEMOCRACY
NOW they need our REINFORCEMENT.
Netanyahu’s current government is prepared to change
the very CHARACTER of the JEWISH STATE.
The “Reasonableness” Bill is scheduled for deliberation at the Supreme Court NEXT WEEK.
In anticipation of this HISTORIC MOMENT and of the JEWISH NEW YEAR,
Let’s GATHER in SOLIDARITY with Israel’s MAJORITY
THIS SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 10 AT 4 PM AT QUEEN’S PARK.
(north side of the legislature building)
It’s time to stand up and defend the VISION, the DREAM, the HOPE
enshrined in HATIKVAH:
לִהְיוֹת עַם חָפְשִׁי בְּאַרְצֵנוּ אֶרֶץ צִיּוֹן וִירוּשָׁלַיִם
“Lihyot Am Chofshi… To be a FREE PEOPLE in our Land, in the Land of Zion, and Jerusalem.”
For inspiration, HEAR this week’s CALL from three leading Zionist voices.
