Live-blogging the JCPA resolutions session
Jewish Telegraphic Agency
But tonight we’re attempting something we believe no one has ever done — live-blogging the resolutions session at the Jewish Council of Public Affairs Plenum:9:07–We’re picking up the session about a half-hour in after a lengthy debate on whether a resolution that would "not exclude the option of military means" to "protect the innocent civilians in Darfur" should include the word "preferably" before the phrase "in coalition with other countries. " After the votes were counted "preferably" was out. 9:10–Both the Reform and rthodox movements oppose an amendment to eliminate the paragraph calling for a military option with the rthodox Union’s David Luchins saying "Do we want the headline in JTA tomorrow to be the organized Jewish community ruled out military force" in Dafur? (Supporters of the amendment argued that the community after Iraq should be wary of military action)9:13–The amendment resoundingly fails. 9:19–The resolution passes easily. 9:22–Mark Pelavin of the Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism introduces a resolution urging efforts to build coalitions with the Muslim community saying local communities are "looking for guidance" in forming such coalitions and that the two faith groups have similar views on a number of issues from hate crimes to a two-state solution.
