Hatikvah Slate, which we co-lead, is the only slate that calls explicitly for an end to Occupation and for self-determination for both Israelis & Palestinians. Say 'no to occupation' by casting your vote for @HatikvahSlate, slate #16, at zionistelection.org. #EndtheOccupation

We're proud to have endorsed this letter, led by @jstreetdotorg.bsky.social, along w/@truahrabbis.bsky.social, @nyjewishagenda.bsky.social, the Reconstructionist movement, and Habonim Dror, vehemently opposing extremist Christian nationalist Mike Huckabee's confirmation as US ambassador to Israel.

Desperate to hold onto his personal power, writes our ED, R' @mhughesrob.bsky.social, Netanyahu has chosen to renew the Gaza war and sacrifice the lives and futures of both Palestinians AND Israelis. Read "Standing with Israelis and Palestinians, Not Netanyahu" at mailchi.mp/progressivei...

[email protected] is voting @hatikvahslate.bsky.social because we stand for democratic sovereignty, security, dignity for Israelis and Palestinians alike. #VoteHatikvah, slate #16, the #antioccupation slate, at zionistelection.org

Important statement by our friends at @ncjw.bsky.social: "Huckabee’s record shows unwavering support for policies contradicting long-standing US policy and international law... His rejection of a two-state solution is at odds with ... the views of a majority of US Jews." www.ncjw.org/news/nationa...

🚨 Yair Golan, head of the opposition HaDemocratim party (Labor/Meretz), was assaulted by Israel's police today at an anti-government rally in Jerusalem. www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_ent...

If @hatikvahslate.bsky.social is strong, we can "move resources, build bridges, and propel a pathway to peace, security, prosperity for Israelis [and] Palestinians." Hear from our slate member, @evanwolfson.bsky.social. Hatikvah means "The Hope". We are slate #16 at zionistelection.org.

Yair Golan is an Israeli politician and leader of the Democrats party and a senior military officer, violently pushed to the ground by police officers. In a #Dictatorship parliamentary immunity does not exist. #SaveIsraelDemocracy #SaveIsraelFromNetanyahu #TraitorAmongUs

If you're Jewish, here's your chance to support Israel's progressives. Vote for the Hatikvah slate for the US delegation to the Zionist Congress. https://azm.castiron.votem.net/election/037548cb-4cbb-4a94-aa9a-8aef017d4ddf

Knesset Member/activist @naamalazimi.bsky.social calls to vote for @hatikvahslate.bsky.social, the slate that represents "peace, liberal values, equality, justice, compassion, solidarity ... the slate that gives us hope for tomorrow". Voting is at zionistelection.org We are slate #16. #WeAreHope

We stand with the tens of thousands, incl our Meretz friends Mossi Raz, Michal Rozin, Zehava Galon, at the anti-gov't rally in Tel Aviv against Netanyahu's decisions to: 1. Terminate the ceasefire 2. Oust the head of the Shin Bet investigating #Qatargate 3. Impeach the anti-authoritarian AG

Bibi is pushing this death and destruction in a craven attempt to consolidate his coalition and get a budget passed in the Knesset by the end of the month, to preserve his own power. He is sacrificing the lives and future of Israelis and Palestinians alike. Deeply shameful.

Our ED and board president have issued a statement on Israel's decision to resume the war in Gaza and, even prior to that, cut off humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza. The statement (progressiveisrael.org/statement-bl...) also endorses the "day-after" plan for Gaza formulated in Cairo.

Mike Huckabee, Trump's nominee for ambassador to Israel, represents annexation and the end of the 2-state idea, acknowledges the chair of the very RW Im Tirtzu - an NGO that, an Israeli judge has ruled, bears "certain lines of resemblance" to Fascism. www.israelnationalnews.com/news/405462

"We must transition from protest to resistance," called Yair Golan, head of HaDemocratim (Labor/Meretz), in order to show "Netanyahu and his allies that we, the people, will not concede on Israel, or on Israeli democracy, or on our right to be a free people in our land". 13tv.co.il/item/news/po...

Shocking, but not surprising, that Anti-Diaspora Minister Amichai Chikli is welcoming the far right to Israel. Appreciate Abraham Foxman for calling out this travesty, and decrying those American Jewish "leaders", like his successor, who are aiding and abetting it. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

We're proud to have been among the organizations endorsing this letter, led by @jayapal.house.gov, @raskin.house.gov, @scanlon.house.gov, signed by 103 Congress Members, and demanding answers regarding Mahmoud Khalil's detention and the stripping of his Green Card. jayapal.house.gov/2025/03/14/j...

As we mark #Purim, our ED, R' @mhughesrob.bsky.social, discusses the holiday theme of "venahafoch-hu," the power of seeing the world upside-down. "We are not obligated to accept the world as it is, but instead must work every day to see [it] as we wish [it] to be." mailchi.mp/progressivei...
