Letter to the Editor: We Must Keep Up Our Support

The Jewish Advocate

On behalf of the Boston Chapter of Brit Tzedek v'Shalom, I applaud the Jewish Community Relations Council's recent statement of unequivocal support for the upcoming Mideast peace conference.

I also commend the entire Massachusetts Congressional delegation for signing a congressional letter, introduced by Reps. Ackerman (D-NY) and Boustany (R-LA), to Secretary Rice, welcoming her efforts to reinvigorate the Israeli-Palestinian peace process.

It is in the interest of all leaders in our community who look forward to a time when Israel lives in peace and security alongside her Arab neighbors to support both the upcoming summit and Israel in her steps towards peace.
