WHAT HAPPENS TO A DREAM WHEN
A DREAM COMES TRUE?

Peace with Egypt was a
dream. Longed for through five
bitter wars.
And it came true. Peace with
Egypt is a fact.
What happened to the dream ?
It lives on. In the self-sacrifice
of hundreds of Sinai settlers
willing to face the heartbreak of
leaving the flourishing fields
and orchards and vineyards
they created with bare hands
out of wasteland . . . to pull back
beyond new borders into the

vast stretches of another desert,
the Negev . . . to begin, all over
again.
But will their sacrifice have
meaning?
Will they get what they need
to secure the dream of peace?
The permanent housing? The
greenhouses? The seeds, the
trees, the water? The chance to
use their Sinai know-how to
grow cash crops again out of
sand? To pave the way for new
population centers, ending the

emptiness of the Negev?
Yes, they will — if we will it.
If we do our share, through our
Allied Jewish Campaign, to
help them pay the price of peace.
What happens to a Jewish
dream when it comes true? It
lives on, in the Jewish heart.
Honor their sacrifice.

GET BEHIND THE DREAM
THAT LIVES ON AMONG
ISRAEL'S PIONEERS.
