From our National Office
Dear Friend of The Workmen's Circle/Arbeter Ring: A momentous policy speech by President Obama yesterday [5/19/11] called for Israel's borders to follow 1967 lines to guide peace negotiations. The Workmen's Circle/Arbeter Ring applauds President Obama's initiative to achieve a fair and balanced resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian disputes and calls for all progressive Jewish organizations to support his efforts. As always, please share your thoughts and comments with us on Facebook or write to me at atoback@circle.org In friendship, Ann Toback Executive Director |

.
Admission is by voluntary donation.
Keep your Yiddish kite flying by attending this group! All levels of Yiddish are welcome.
