Tremendous pressure is being put on the Palestine Authority to deny the legal and moral rights of the expelled Palestinian refugees. Nearly 200 Jews have signed a statement in favor of the Right of Return. (names listed below) In a few days I'll be sending those names to every major paper in the U.S. and Israel as a small form of countervailing pressure. If you haven't already joined in the statement please read on.
Research has shown that the return of refugees and the compensation of others who choose not to return is well within the means of Israel and its international backers in addition to being morally and legally right. It would be incredibly helpful if Jews were identified with the cause of the refugees. Beside the right of return there are other refugee rights, too. Refugees should be able to work in the countries in which they live in and should enjoy the full range of political rights wherever they reside. For more information about the Right of Return movement click on:
