Iran poses a clear and
present danger to the safety and security of the
Jewish people and the State of Israel. Iranian
fighters have even been found in Lebanon attacking
Israel.
Iran’s pursuit of nuclear
technology, implicit threats to use nuclear weapons
against the Jewish people, support for global terrorism,
ties to terrorist murders of Jews around the world,
calls to destroy Israel and denial of the Holocaust
make the regime a continued threat to the Jewish
people and global security. Support
the WJC today and help fight this terrorist threat!
The
Iranian regime will stop at nothing to destroy Israel
and terrorize Jews around the world. Iran
arms and assists Hezbollah, executes terrorist attacks
against Jewish institutions and persistently calls
for the destruction, elimination and annihilation
of Israel. World
Jewry must stand united against this vicious threat – Support
the WJC’s campaign today to help expose the
Iranian threat and help secure the rights and lives
of Jews around the world.
