Israel Policy Forum is shocked and appalled by the column published in the Atlanta Jewish Times by its owner and publisher Andrew Adler calling for Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “to give the go-ahead for U.S.-based Mossad agents to take out a president deemed unfriendly to Israel in order for the current vice president to take his place, and forcefully dictate that the United States policy includes its helping the Jewish state obl

In an ideal world, if we were writing this up as a scenario we would say let’s put this all on hold, and everyone stays away happily and nothing changes for the worse, and we pick it up perhaps when everyone is stronger.

About IPF

Israel Policy Forum (IPF) builds mainstream leadership support for responsible U.S. diplomacy to achieve a sustainable, negotiated two-state solution to the Arab-Israeli conflict through advocacy, education and policy research.

HISTORY

Israel Policy Forum (IPF) was founded in 1993, with the encouragement of Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, to serve as a strong American base of support for the active and sustained U.S. diplomatic efforts needed to assist the State of Israel in its pursuit of lasting peace and security. Ever since, IPF’s program, policy and advocacy initiatives have served to mobilize community and policy leaders toward constructive efforts to advance Mideast peace and security. IPF has also provided high-level platforms for key policymakers to address Mid-dle East peacemaking efforts, including President Bill Clinton, who announced the “Clinton Parameters” for Middle East peace at an IPF event in 2001.

PRINCIPLES

IPF is committed to a strong US-Israel relationship, to Israel’s security in the context of a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and to a com-prehensive resolution of the Arab-Israeli conflicts. IPF’s nonpartisan work is driven by the belief that the United States is the only credible and effective mediator capable of helping the parties reach a solution that will safeguard Israel’s security and future as a Jewish and democratic state. Community, pol-icy and business leaders provide the much-needed support for the kind of leadership necessary to achieve these objectives.

WORK

IPF mobilizes mainstream policy, community and business leaders to advocate for responsible U.S. engagement that advances the shared interests of the United States and the State of Israel. IPF conducts targeted advocacy meetings in Washington, private and public educational briefings for leaders across the country, and delegations to link American leaders with their counterparts in the region. IPF also produces insightful commentary, analysis and policy rec-ommendations backed by IPF’s expansive network of influential analysts, for-mer government officials, and community and business leaders.
