As Israeli citizens, we are concerned by the policies of the Israeli governments, policies which
violate international law, violate the basic human rights of Palestinians under occupation and
serve to instigate instability, violence and suffering in the Middle East. We are also concerned by
the double standards applied by some countries in the international community, especially the
developed countries, towards Israel’s violations. Such double standards imbue violent and
blatantly illegal Israeli policies of land theft, torture and physical abuse of civilians with an aura of
legitimacy.
We believe that only when the international community makes Israel accountable for its actions,
can we hope to see a change in Israeli policies.
As Israeli citizens, we wish to voice our strong support for the calls issued to OECD countries by
numerous Palestinian and international organizations. Please note that these calls also refer to
the racist policies towards, and discrimination against, those Palestinians who are Israeli citizens.
Rewarding Israel for severe human rights violations will bring about neither peace nor
justice !
Please Do Not Approve Israel’s OECD Membership Until It Abides by International Law !
