Email the White House TODAY and Urge President Obama Not to Pressure Israel
When Israel's Prime Minister Netanyahu met with President Obama at the White House the meeting was largely cordial, and both men spoke about their desire to pursue peace negotiations with the Palestinians.
While each leader has expressed an interest in peace talks, however, it is not clear that they share the same vision when it comes to the details of peace making. Will President Obama continue working with Prime Minister Netanyahu as a partner? Or will he pressure the Prime Minister into making concessions that the Israelis believe to be unwise? We do not currently know the answer to these questions.
It is therefore important that we urge the President now, at the outset, to pursue peace in close coordination with Israel's democratically elected leaders. If you want to send a message to President Obama not to pressure Israel, please click here.
Update on Annapolis Rapid Response Action Alert:
The Middle East Peace Summit in Annapolis has ended. As the delegates board their planes back to the Middle East, we are closing our Annapolis Action Alert campaign. This campaign was a great success. CUFI activists send over 14,500 e-mails to the White House and placed thousands more calls asking President Bush not to pressure Israel to make territorial concessions at Annapolis.
We are pleased to report that the Annapolis Summit ended without any such pressure being placed on Israel. In fact, the Summit was little more than an extended photo opportunity. In this narrow sense, our campaign was a success.
In a broader sense, however, our work has only just begun. The parties have agreed that Annapolis would be the beginning of a process of further negotiation which will present many more opportunities for America to press Israel to make dangerous concessions. We will continue to watch these negotiations very carefully. If we believe that Israel is facing coercion at any time during the process, we will not hesitate to launch another Action Alert campaign.
In the meantime, you can continue to demonstrate your support for the People of Israel by signing the Letter of Encouragement to the People of Israel. CUFI will deliver this letter, with your signature, to the White House and the Israeli Embassy in Washington, DC. Click here to sign the Letter of Encouragement to the People of Israel
Update on September 20th Rapid Response Action Alert:
Revolutionary Guard Rapid Response Ends in Victory
On October 25th, the White House announced harsh new sanctions against Iran's Revolutionary Guard and other Iranian entities. These are the most severe sanctions the US has imposed against Iran since 1979. These sanctions will send a clear signal of American resolve to Iran and to our allies. At the same time, these steps will make it much more difficult for Iran's Revolutionary Guard to find the funds and business partners it needs to continue its march towards nuclear weapons.
This decision comes after a month-long campaign by Christians United for Israel to persuade the White House to impose stricter sanctions on Iran's Revolutionary Guard. We know that the thousands of e-mails and phone calls from our activists helped persuade the White House to take this most important step. We spoke out strongly on this issue when few other groups did.
Thanks to everyone who participated in the Rapid Response Campaign. Your efforts made a difference. Because of your stand, an enemy of Israel and America is facing much greater challenges today.
