sponsored rally to proclaim and stand firmly in support of Israel,
especially knowing that others were gathering to call for Israel's
destruction.
Those who participated enthusiastically marched through the Boston
Common,
engaging bystanders in conversation, handing out informational material
and
corporately singing Israeli themed songs led by James and Gayle O'Hare,
board
members of CJUI and founders of Israel My Delight Ministries.
On

Egypt to the restoration of Israel in 1948.

On Guard Rally
It
was an amazing show of support
and
determination to keep Israel, America and freedom protected
from the evil of
Radical Islam and Sharia Law. We are on Guard
was the theme.
Four organizations, among them, Christians and Jews United for Israel,
worked
together to make the event happen.
The
sea of America and Israeli flags
being waved by 200 people on a beautiful, peaceful, hopeful Florida day
will
long be remembered. There was almost no opposition from the
anti–Semitic
community and dozens of friendly, supportive Fort
Lauderdale police
there to protect us.
It
almost felt like, “All’s
right with the world.”

Israel is one of the few
places in the
Middle East where Arab women may vote. In
Israel, Arabs have equal voting rights as
Jews.
● Israeli Arabs hold various Knesset seats and
government posts, including current deputy mayor of Tel Aviv and
Supreme Court
justice.
● By law, Israeli government may
not prevent Arab citizens from living wherever they choose nor allocate
land
based on religion or ethnicity.
●Israeli
law prohibits discrimination in employment of all citizens regardless
of
religion or ethnicity.
●For
the first time in Mideast history, there is an independent judiciary
willing to
listen to grievances of Arabs – that judiciary is called the Israeli
Supreme
Court.
●Israel
has given Palestinians the authority to self-govern virtually all civil
affairs
for the Arabs in the PA territories.
●Israel drilled new wells for Arabs in the PA
near Jenin, Nablus, and
Tulkarm, and more than 60 towns in the territories were given new water
supply
systems for their use.
●Israeli hospitals extend humanitarian
treatment to every person in need,
regardless of religion, residency, or race.

In response to rising global anti-Semitism and threats to Israel's
security, we declare our support of Israel's right to exist as the
historical national homeland for Jews, with Jerusalem as her undivided
capital. We further support Israel's right to retain secure and
defensible borders for the protection of her citizens against foreign
enemies and terror insurgents.
We recognize Israel as the most democratic nation in the Middle East, a
nation that guarantees "complete equality of social and political
rights to all its inhabitants, irrespective of religion, race or sex"
and pledges to "safeguard the Holy Places of all religion." (Quoted
from the 1948 Israeli Declaration of Independence). Sharing with us
these precious democratic and Judeo-Christian values, Israel has been
and must remain America's closest ally in the Middle East.
For the last 3,000 years, despite foreign occupiers and attackers,
Israel has been the declared homeland of one people: the Jews. The
Babylonians in the sixth century BCE and the Romans in 70 CE destroyed
the Temple and scattered the Jewish people. Subsequent empires have
appropriated the land. Yet, none of them, including the Arab Muslim
occupiers, have ever called Israel their homeland, or Jerusalem their
national capital. Finally, in 1948, the Jews reclaimed their nation,
with Jerusalem as its capital. But from 1948 to 1967, Jordan closed off
the east Jerusalem and the West Bank from Israel, stopping any Jews
from visiting their holy sites. In the 1967 Six Day War, Israel
re-captured all of Jerusalem and brought her undivided capital under a
sovereign Jewish rule. And thus it shall remain as Israel's eternal
capital.
The Bible specifically mentions the name "Jerusalem" nearly 800 times,
linking the city with the faith and history of the Jewish people. In
contrast, the birth of Islam 1,400 years ago took place outside the
land of Israel. The name of Jerusalem does not appear even once in
Islam's holy book, the Qur'an.
Despite over a century of Arab rejectionism and wars large and small
that have needlessly taken thousands of Jewish and Arab lives, a secure
Israel must continue to be the center of our hopes and prayers.
"[The] heart and soul of the Jewish people engenders the thought that
if you want one simple word to symbolize all of Jewish history, that
word would be 'Jerusalem.'"
Teddy Kollek
In view of the above, on May 23, 2010, at the Boston March for
Jerusalem, we declared and affirmed our support of Israel and her
undivided capital, Jerusalem.
