Dear Secretary Rice,
As an advocate of the American Jewish Committee, I applaud both your support of Israel and your effort to achieve a lasting peace in the Middle East. At the same time, I know you also agree that peace must be built on understanding and mutual respect. Yet Hamas continues to operate a systematic propaganda campaign intended to instill hatred of Jews and Israel, while many Arab regimes that profess to want peace look the other way. As you said so eloquently at the American Jewish Committee's annual meeting, Hamas cannot be a terrorist group and a political party at the same time. Every party to a peace agreement must recognize that fact as well. Consequently, I urge you to insist that all Arab regimes that wish to participate in the peace process condemn Hamas' use of both violence and anti-Semitic propaganda. Again, I applaud your support of Israel and wish you success in this important endeavor.
Sincerely,

Dear EU Commissioner Reding:
As you read this note, untold thousands, even millions, of Muslims in European countries are gathered around their television sets watching programs that preach the most virulent forms of anti-Semitic hatred. This hatred threatens to fuel the already alarming rise of anti-Jewish violence in Europe. As a supporter of the American Jewish Committee, I call on you, the EU Commissioner of Information Society and Media, to alert European leaders to the hatred preached in their societies and to urge them to exercise special vigilance in protecting the safety of Jewish communities. Please give this situation the urgent attention it requires.
Sincerely,

H.E. Ambassador Sir John Sawers, KCMG
Permanent Representative of Great Britain to the United Nations
Dear Mr. Ambassador:
I deeply appreciate the commitment to democracy and equality your nation displayed by helping to secure Israel's invitation to join the UN Western European and Others Group (WEOG) in New York. As you know, Israel remains excluded in other key UN bodies around the world, such as the Human Rights Council in Geneva. Until Israel achieves full participation at the UN, it will sadly remain a second-class citizen.
We urge Great Britain to persevere in its efforts to grant
Israel permanent membership in WEOG, with the full rights enjoyed by every other country at the UN, as promised by the UN Charter's equality guarantee.
Respectfully,
