Recent Events in Israel

We are deeply saddened by the events off the coast of Gaza and the loss of life that resulted from the clashes between activists on the flotilla and Israeli forces.

For more information on events as they unfold, we encourage members to sign up for updates from BICOM: click here to subscribe at the BICOM website.

We would also like to highlight articles written by people connected to the Movement for Reform Judaism.

The first is written by Jonathan Boyd on his blog. He is the Executive Director of the Institute for Jewish Policy Research, but writes here in a purely personal capacity.

Jonathan has also collected together a useful list of interesting commentaries on the recent events in Israel from across the media.

The second article is written by Robi Damelin, a key spokesperson for UK Friends of the Bereaved Families Forum who attended the Reform Movement Biennial Conference in 2008.

Julian Resnick, former Director of Living Judaism for the Movement for Reform Judaism shares his thoughts on the recent events in his Jewish Journeys blog.

The New Israel Fund have issued this statement: 'NIF, British Jews and a delicate balance'.

OneVoice, another organisation whose we support have issued this statement: 'OneVoice Channels Frustrations to Seize Back the Agenda'.
