High Holiday Call-In Campaign for
Jonathan Pollard kicks-off this Week
The following ad from the National Council of Young Israel, calling on everyone to call the White House daily for Jonathan Pollard for the next few weeks during the period leading up to the Jewish High Holy Days, will appear in approximately 20 American national, regional and community Jewish papers, this coming weekend (Aug 31st). Copies of the flyer have also been sent to Jewish Day Schools, rabbis, and community leaders.
National Council of Young Israel urges everyone to participate in the mitzvah of pidyon shvuyim, the commandment to do all in our power to redeem a captive. We urge those associated with Council of Young Israel Rabbis in Israel (CYIR) to join us in this campaign.
Jonathan Pollard needs your help!
Please recirculate, reprint, repost the flyer. Get your family, friends, colleagues and organizations involved! Call the White House right now - (202-456-1414). Let's flood the White House with phone calls during this critical time! (Poster can be downloaded as a PDF by clicking the following link: Download Poster)
