We have a real problem in the American debate on Israel – the same problem blocking a budget deal, or common sense gun safety measures. Those on the extremes dominate the debate and for too long have drowned out the sensible middle. More and more journalists are calling it out: Did you see Tom Friedman in the New York Times or long-time political commentator Jim Besser? With your help, J Street is starting to change all that. We're building an effective, moderate political voice when it comes to Israel – a voice that supports Israel as a democratic home for the Jewish people and the right of the Palestinian people to their independence. |
