American Jews and Israel(1991)

RCA Calls on American Jews to Strengthen Their Ties With Israel and Its People

Jun 1, 1991 — Whereas Israel is the one unifying force in American Jewish life and personal ties between American Jews and Israelis have weakened and
Whereas American Jewry needs Israel as a spiritual anchor, focus and source of pride and Israel needs the political, financial and moral support of American Jewry
Therefore, the Rabbinical Council of America, in convention assembled,
calls upon its members and the larger Jewish community to strengthen the relationship and translate the support into tangible efforts such as the promotion of aliyah, tourism and generous contributions and investments to UJA, Bonds, JNF, and to Torah educational institutions, particularly to those which espouse the ideology of religious Zionism, as well as to other organizations devoted to the building of Eretz Yisrael and Medinat Yisrael.
