Quote JVP members are serious about making change. We work with diverse communities across the U.S. to achieve a lasting peace for Palestinians and Jewish Israelis based on equality, human rights, and freedom. Whether you are a grandparent or a student; whether your best work is in strategy meetings, in an art studio, or on Facebook.

During the 7-week period between April 23rd – June 10th, we invite you to join JVP in counting the Omer, the 49 days between Passover and Shavuot. This is a time of physical, spiritual and communal growth. Join us on these transformative calls, led by JVP members and JVP Rabbis.

It is a long statement about their opposition to the the state of Israel. This is the first 2 paragraphs. Jewish Voice for Peace September 27, 2010 Jewish Voice for Peace is the largest and most influential Jewish anti-Zionist group in the United States. Despite the neutral tone of its name, Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) counts among its objectives an end to U.S. aid for Israel (because of Israel's "repressive policies") and the success of boycott and divestment campaigns against Israel. In the past few years, JVP has become a leader in the American anti-Israel movement and has assumed a particularly visible role in the renewed Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) campaign against Israel. JVP's local chapters actively support divestment initiatives on college campuses and have helped anti-Israel student groups pressure their universities to divest from corporations that profit from the "Israeli occupation."
