AMERICANS, ISRAEL AND PEACE
The peoples of the United States and Israel share common ideals, values, and spiritual roots. Both governments are committed to democracy, justice, human rights and freedoms. WE AFFIRM OUR UNYIELDING SUPPORT FOR THE STATE OF ISRAEL and recognize its right to live within secure and recognized boundaries free from threat or act of force. We feel that it is essential for the Congress and the Administration to continue the bi-partisan policies which enhance the economic stability and the military security of the State of Israel. These policies are clearly beneficial to both Americans and Israelis.
In light of this consensus, we commemorate the November 29,1947 United Nations resolution which resulted in the establishment of the Jewish State. We regret the continued state of war that has enveloped the nations of the Middle East for more than three decades. We call on Israel's neighbors to end their continued rejection, and invite them to join all peace-loving people in an effort to make the dream of peace a reality.
We believe the rights of the Palestinian people should be respected and we support negotiations with Palestinian representatives who openly acknowledge the legitimacy of the State of Israel. We feel that this condition is the essential prerequisite to sincere negotiations designed to guarantee Palestinian rights while simultaneously securing Israeli borders.
A genuine peace between Israel and her neighbors must encompass full diplomatic relations, the end of hostile propaganda, and the termination of political and economic warfare. These objectives can only be attained through mutual understanding and respect by all peoples who live in this troubled region. When these goals are realized, Israel and her neighbors will live in peace and tranquility.
