Interesting response from Cantor Davis who was in Detroit: Rabbis accompanied by young and veteran Jewish activists went to Detroit to encourage you, the Presbyterian elders, to listen to your inner voice of conscience. We do not believe that the risk of hurting the feelings of some - or even many Jews - should take precedence over responding to the constant humiliation and violent attacks on Palestinians living under Occupation. We believe it is unseemly for Jews -- or any observer -- to try to steer you away from heeding your own ethical commitments. The Bibles teaching, love your neighbor as yourself instructs us to give the Presbyterians the same respect that we expect for ourselves: the freedom to follow our consciences without being cautioned that doing so might cost us our interfaith friendships.
