Dear Interim Prime Minister Olmert,

On behalf of Americans for Peace Now, we are writing to express our solidarity with you, the Government, and the people of Israel in this very difficult moment. We extend our prayers for a speedy and complete recovery to Prime Minister Ariel Sharon - a true Zionist and patriot whose recent actions in removing settlements from Gaza represent one of the most important steps Israel has taken toward peace in its history.

We also extend our prayers for you, that you may have wisdom and a steady hand in guiding the great nation of Israel during this time of crisis, and that you may have the courage and vision to continue to move Israel closer to real peace.

Please know that we - and all American Jews who love Israel and believe peace is the key to Israel's security and future as a Jewish, democratic state - stand today with the people of Israel in this moment of crisis. We also stand with Israel in the future, as difficult choices and sacrifices are made in order to achieve peace.

If any solace can be found at this time, it is in knowing that Israel's democracy is strong and resilient, capable of ensuring stability and continuity even in the face of a tragedy.


Sincerely,

Franklin M. Fisher Debra DeLee
