TO THE ANTI-DEFAMATION LEAGUE:
Do not host another Counter-Terrorism Leadership Seminar or Advanced Training School. Dispatching US law enforcement to trade tactics with Israeli police and military agents defends and deepens Israel's systems of military occupation, and exacerbates the existing crisis of police violence in the US.
These Deadly Exchanges have no place in an organization claiming to protect civil rights for all.
TO LOCAL ELECTED OFFICIALS:
Oppose the participation of law enforcement agencies in these programs. Support safety initiatives that benefit ALL people, not programs that are in reality reinforcing harmful and racist ideologies, practices, and policies.
