Prime Minister Netanvahu to Meet With U.S. Administration on May 11

An Open Letter To The U.S. Administration:
Don't Pressure Israel Into Premature Concessions

Protect Israel & Regional Security

Premature concessions would put Israeli civilians, society, and economy at grave risk.

Terrorist Attacks Continue

• West Bank heights put a non-peaceful partner only a few kilometers away from Israel's population centers,
economic heartland, and Ben Gurion Airport.
• The PA has been unable or unwilling to eradicate terrorist cells or stop terrorist plots and arms smuggling.
• Hamas could easily take over the weak PA, putting an Iranian proxy on Israel's eastern doorstep.

Rushed, unconditional, externally imposed solutions will not bring lasting peace.

PA political parties are still dedicated to destroying the Jewish State.

• Anti-Israel, anti-Semitic incitement to hate and violence dominates PA society.
• The founding documents of Fatah and Hamas still call for the "eradication" of the "Zionist" state.
• PA President Mahmoud Abbas refuses to accept Israel as a Jewish State.

The PA is unprepared for state government. It has not taken steps to form a stable, peaceful society.

Pres. Abbas-" No, I don't recognize
Israel as a Jewish state"

• There is no government address, The PA is divided into warring parties and armed "security" gangs.
• The PA does not have basic civic institutions or civil and political rights.

Demanding premature concessions would repeat tragic past mistakes.

Israel's unilateral withdrawals have led to escalating incitement, terrorism, and war.

• Israel's unilateral withdrawal from its Lebanese security zone in 2000 enabled Hezbollah to build its terrorist
arsenal and led to the 2006 war.
• Israel's unilateral withdrawal from Gaza in 2005 led to Hamas increasing its military capacity and launching

thousands of rockets into Israel's southern communities.

' ∎

Respect Israel's expertise and its sincere search for a
lasting peace. Pressuring Israel into premature concessions
is bad for Israel, the Palestinians, the U.S., and hopes
for regional peace.
