NEW YORK, July 18, 2021 /PRNewswire/ American Jewish Committee (AJC) condemns the United Church of Christ (UCC) General Synod resolution entitled, Declaration for a Just Peace Between Palestine and Israel, adopted today by a vote of 462 to 78. The measure demonizes Israel, fails to offer a credible path to Israeli-Palestinian peace, and undermines advances in Christian-Jewish relations.
In a 3,500-word document, there is no mention of Hamas, which has governed Gaza since 2007, is committed to Israel s destruction, opposes any peace initiatives, and, most recently, in May, fired thousands of rockets indiscriminately at Israel s cities.
