At this point in time, CJPIP has adopted, as the most hopeful path toward evolution of a just peace, the following organizational principles:

  • Support for equal rights and access to resources for all inhabitants of the region, based on principles of social, economic, environmental, and political justice.
  • Support for peace and justice activities in Israel, Palestine, and the U.S.
  • An end to the Israeli occupation of the West Bank, Gaza, and East Jerusalem, in accordance with international law and U.N. resolutions.
  • An end to U.S. policies that sustain the occupation.
  • International support for an equitable and just negotiation process.
  • A resolution to the Palestinian refugee issue in accordance with international law and human rights principles.
  • An end to all forms of terror: state, organizational, and individual.
  • We welcome all who support the principles above to join us in building this important voice in our community.
