Dear Friends,
This letter is being sent to you by citizens of the state of Israel who
are active in various Left groups and on a variety of topics throughout
Israel/Palestine, including human rights, ecology, peace, support for
refugees, social justice, workers’ rights, feminism, and queer
struggles. We are struggling within our country and our society for a
real social change, an end to the occupation, and the forging of an
egalitarian and just society for all residents, women and men, of the area.
The decision to send this letter was taken following repeated reports of
your party’s actions on the situation in Israel/Palestine. The
participation of senior members of your party in a January 2009
demonstration in Berlin in support of the Israeli bombardment of the
Gaza Strip, the existence and acceptance of a political working group
within your party (Bundesarbeitkreis [BAK] Shalom) that clearly supports
Israel’s various military actions and disseminates militaristic and
nationalistic propaganda, and the silence of a majority of senior party
officials concerning the Israeli occupation policy clarified for us,
amongst other things, the need for clear intervention on our part.
