Support Commanders for Israel's Security

SUPPORT THE COMMANDERS FOR ISRAEL'S SECURITY

WHO ARE THE COMMANDERS FOR ISRAEL'S SECURITY? The Commanders are nearly 600 retired IDF generals, colonels and their equivalents across the security establishment (Mossad, Shin Bet, Police) and diplomatic corps. Having dedicated their lives to Israel’s security, they have the singular standing, firsthand experience and clout to address the crisis Israel faces. Visit https://en.cis.org.il/ to learn more. (Read plaudits for CIS and their work on our Praise/Media page.)

WHAT IS THE CRISIS? Israel is being driven into a perilous suicidal rush by its current government. Eying the end of its term, the governing coalition has accelerated efforts to dismantle Israel’s liberal democratic foundations and intensified its West Bank annexation drive. Unchecked, this trajectory threatens the Zionist project envisioned by Israel’s founders -- the Israel we love. The upcoming elections on October 27 are perhaps the last chance to halt and reverse this direction.

WHAT ARE THE COMMANDERS DOING? Its activities include West Bank missions, incident‑response teams, legal action, consultations with political leaders and broad media engagement. Using these means, CIS leverages its unmatched credibility to command attention from decision‑makers and the public in Israel and abroad. CIS has two goals: first, hinder the pace of annexation and Jewish terrorism on the ground; second, to force onto the election agenda the issue of a regional process for political and security agreements with the Palestinians and the Arab States.

WHY DO THEY NEED OUR SUPPORT NOW? For many years, CIS has operated essentially as a voluntary organization. To have a real impact and help stop the madness, they must apply a dramatically enhanced level of activity and resources. In order to carry on, they need our assistance.
