Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I sign up to support the JPA? How does that help?
Every person who signs up to support the JPA and then invites their friends
to do the same brings the JPA greater prominence and publicity. By
the time we hit one million signatures, all the main parties who need to
adopt the agreement will be considering and discussing it and some of them
may start to adopt it.

How are you going to get the world to unite to implement the JPA?
One person at a time, one country at a time. If you sign up, ten
million others will, too. Why not? And when one country adopts the
agreement and commits to implementing it, that will start a snowball effect
leading to everyone adopting it, one by one. You will see.

Nothing has worked before. Why is the JPA any different?
The JPA is different from every other initiative and deal, in critical
ways that will make it work. It includes everyone and is acceptable
to everyone. Up front, it delivers the true vital needs of the
Palestinian people in a dramatic and tangible form: it is justice that
they can see and feel. Deeper inside, it delivers the true vital
needs of Israel too: lasting security based on acceptance and friendship.

I've got a better plan than the JPA. How about it?
The JPA is a tightly-knit package that works together, so we
are not going to change the principles. But if you have a good
idea that applies the principles in an imaginitive, positive way, or
fills in the details effectively or tightens up a loose end, send it
to us and we'll consider putting it in. The JPS is a working draft,
and we are constantly seeking to improve it — all suggestions
welcome.

The Palestinians will never accept a deal like the JPA and make peace.
Yes they will. Anyone who is realistic can see immediately
that the JPA delivers by far the best outcome for Palestine that can be
imagined. Certainly better than anything that they can get from
current negotiations or continuing with resistance/terrorism.

The Israelis will never accept a deal like the JPA and withdraw.
Yes they will. Scratch the surface of the JPA and you will find
it is just as good a deal for them as it is for the Palestinians.
The Israelis are not stupid. They can figure out a good opportunity
when it is in front of them.

The JPA is a crazy blue-skies fantasy. It will never work.
Not as crazy as what is already going on in Palestine and Israel.
That is a bad kind of crazy, whereas the JPA is a good kind of crazy.
Crazy enough to think the conflict can be ended once and for all. Crazy
enough to believe that there can be justice for everyone and not just one side.
Crazy enough to make an 80-page treaty that spells out in minute detail every step,
every provision, every clause needed to make it happen. It will work when
people decide to implement it.

I think the JPA is great. What can I do to help?
Sign up, then get your friends and contacts to come here and read
and sign up, too. Use every means of communication you have
access to. We want a thousand supporters signed up by the end
this month, ten thousand by the end of next.
