Israel Working Group Statement – Adopted by the Board of Trustees 6.8.2026
The Bet Am Shalom community affirms a deep and enduring connection to the land of Israel as the spiritual homeland of the Jewish people. We also affirm justice, equity, and respect for the dignity of every human being in the land as enduring ethical imperatives.
When it comes to the Israeli government and its policies, members of our community hold a range of perspectives. As a community, we welcome differing viewpoints and are committed to fostering thoughtful and respectful dialogue in which a range of voices can be heard and valued. Above all, we remain grounded in our shared commitment to one another, to learning from each other, and to engaging with openness and respect.
