You can use the following letter to contact our elected representatives, the press and the general public with ideas for positive change in public policy and individual minds.

With every attack the situation deteriorates, and an increasing polarity between the two sides threatens the region as well as the world. In light of these dire circumstances, we need to support a peace initiative based on:
Separation is inherently unjust. Both sides lose the benefits of sharing their profoundly linked cultures and history. It will be difficult to resolve this conflict, but the alternative is far worse. Sincerely yours, [your name] How to Effectively Use This Letter
