Although the High Holidays have concluded, we have an obligation to continue reflecting on our thoughts, words and
actions - not just as individuals, but as a Jewish community. I hope that during this time of continued
contemplation, we can take an honest accounting of the current state of the land of Israel - not only its many
accomplishments and gifts, but its frightening move towards intolerance and violence. Former APN chair, Martin
Bresler, has eloquently made the case for this self-examination in his essay below; APN makes the case every day
for the imperative to act against this danger. We ask that during this holiday season you support our critical work. It's not about right and left, it's about right and
wrong.
B'Shalom,
Debra DeLee, President and CEO, APN
