Join the Petition Against a Unilaterally Declared Palestinian State

The Palestinian Authority recently announced that it intends to request formal recognition of a Palestinian State on September 20th, the opening day of the United Nations General Assembly. It is vital that we raise our collective voice against this action and in support of the resumption of direct negotiations.

To date, more than 100,000 supporters of Israel and 62 co-sponsoring organizations have raised their voices in opposition to the Palestinian Authority's plans by signing this nationwide petition calling on U.N. member nations to vote against endorsing a unilaterally declared Palestinian state.

In an attempt to thwart the Palestinian bid for statehood at the U.N., we urge you to immediately do the following:

• Sign the petition
• Forward the petition on to your friends and family
• Circulate the petition to your social and organizational networks via e-mail, Facebook, and Twitter (#Sign4Peace).

This Petition Against a Unilaterally Declared Palestinian State was created by the Jewish Community Relations Council of New York in partnership with the Israel Action Network.

For questions, concerns, or if you wish to add your organization to the growing list of co-sponsors, please contact Noam Gilboord at .
