The first ad appeared today (July 31) in the NY Times. It had 2500 signatures before it appeared. We hope now to move to the Washington Post and to other American media, and to Israeli, Lebanese and Palestinian media. We need your financial support.
Please help us now by going to www.tikkun.org/PeaceAd, where you can see the ad (though you have to enlarge it to see what it would really look like at full size-- 13 inches wide and 21 inches deep).
Although Israel announced a 48 hour cessation of bombing after the killing of 60 civilians yesterday including 34 children, it continues the land war. And the war against Gaza continues, as does the daily violence of the Occupation of the West Bank.
But there is a huge urgency. Please act now-- make it possible for us to send this message to the world. Sign the ad, and donate to the ad, right now: www.tikkun.org/PeaceAd. The world needs your help, as do the people of the Middle East who are suffering: Lebanese, Israelis, and Palestinians.
Many blessings,
Rabbi Michael Lerner
