But I do not see anything in this resolution that denies that right. What do others see in this resolution that denies Israel's right to exist?

Both the pending resolution and the case against it are attached. So it is a real attempt in real time. Elliot & Shoshana, and any other AJL member who has a voice in ALA - is it too late to submit an AJL sponsored statement to ALA's Council? How does one do it? I can write a short one but I need to know which ALA body has the authority to publish it. This is not new(s) and I suggest we highlight the hypocrisy of signaling out of Israel as opposed to countries and terrorist organizations who commit genocide & war crimes (Nigeria, Hamas, Sudan, etc.), and using anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism to politicize a professional organization. We should also mention that scheduling such meetings on the Sabbath is offensive to Jewish members of ALA and is a de-facto act of censorship. AJL membership is a rainbow of political convictions vis-à-vis Israel (Thank God!), but I am sure we can all agree that Israel's right to exist is not debatable, and that the work of our colleagues in Israel promotes coexistence and peace and shouldn't be reviled and railroaded by ALA. yaffa From: Yaniv Levi [mailto:yaniv.l...@nli.org.il<mailto:yaniv.l...@nli.org.il>] Sent: Tuesday, January 27, 2015 8:42 AM To: Weisman, Yaffa Cc: Oren Weinberg; Elhanan Subject: ALA resolution boycotting companies working with IDF Dear Yaffa, I have received you mail from Elhanan Adler, who proposed that you might assist. It was brought to our attention that in the coming ALA (winter) the attached resolution would be adopted by ALA council. 1. Are you aware of this initiative? I found no mentioning of such resolution, and I don't know if this is a real thing or not. 2. Does ALA take such resolution and if so in what forum? 3. If so, how can we help prevent such resolution? Who can help? What is required? 4. Can AJL assist in such effort?
