About our Campaign to end the Israeli occupation
The Campaign is a diverse coalition working for freedom from occupation and
equal rights for all by challenging international government policy towards the Israeli-Palestinian
conflict. The Campaign is based on human rights and international law, providing
a non-sectarian framework for everyone who supports its
Call to Action. Its
strategy is to inform, educate, and mobilize the public so as to change the
US role in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to support peace, justice, human
rights, and international law.
Call to Action
Our Principles and Purpose
- We stand for freedom from occupation, and equal rights for all. International law
guarantees these human rights, including the right to exist in peace and security
- We aim to change those policies that sustain Israel's occupation of the
Palestinian West Bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem, and deny equal rights for all
Our Goals
- We will inform, educate, and mobilize the public regarding the Government's
current as well as potential role in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict
- We seek to change such policies as that of military and economic aid
provided despite Israel’s violations of international law
- We call for all parties to work within the U.N. to implement a just and lasting peace
Our Campaign
- Our Campaign will build on existing opposition to settlements, land confiscation,
house demolitions, and other violations of international law, by providing a common
platform to challenge U.S. policies supporting the Israeli occupation of Palestine
- We include civil and human rights activists, faith-based organizations, peace activists,
Arab-American organizations, Jewish groups opposing the occupation, students, and others who
promote peace and justice in Israel and Palestine. We invite all who support this Call to
contribute to the fulfillment of its purpose
