"What we've done shows that people can do what governments should have done. If people stand up against injustice, we can truly be the conscience of the world."  --Jeff Halper

We have just heard that our request for re-funding has been rejected, in high probability because of pressure brought to bear by right-wing Israeli neo-cons who have campaigned obsessively against our funding while threatening publicly to close us down.  
 
So we now face a real crisis.
 
That said, those who want us "gone" make a mistake in assuming that we will close if our funding is withdrawn.  Our plan is to keep the office open and retain two staff; I will work on a voluntary basis until the financial picture improves.
 
We continue to be very grateful for the support we've received from the ICAHD-USA community; your contributions have been an important supplement to the EU funding, allowing us to launch the Constructing Peace Campaign.  Now we are turning to you for help; we must work together to preserve ICAHD's position as a leader in the Israeli peace movement.  
 
 I promise you, no matter what, ICAHD will not be silenced.
