Supporters of the Agreement

Every individual person who comes to this website, reads enough of it to be sure they believe in the Just Peace Agreement and signs up, becomes a supporter of the agreement. In so doing, you are not committing yourself to anything more than signing up to support the agreement, but if you can tell your friends about the Just Peace agreement and encourage them to come here, read and sign up too, that will be very helpful.

Promoters of the Agreement

Any supporter who wants to do more to promote the JPA can contact us and may be invited to join Peacemaker as a translator, www promoter, web designer, technical advisor, legal advisor, interpreter or peacebroker. You need the right skills and to be willing to donate your time and energy to this cause. You must be competely independent of all government and other national or political agencies if you join Peacemaker.

Supporting Organizations

A whole organization that wishes to declare its support for the Just Peace agreement as an organization can do so via the contact page. Supporting organizations will be listed and acknowledged on the news page. But an organization per se cannot become part of Peacemaker, and Peacemaker cannot be taken over or run by any other organization.

Parties to the Agreement

Any political or governmental body that indicates its support for the Just Peace Agreement is committing itself to adopting the agreement, if not immediately then at the right time in the future. Adopting the Just Peace Agreement means publicly declaring that you will accede to the agreement and will implement it, and proceeding to implement it consistently thereafter. Any organization that has a role to play in implementing the agreement can adopt it, from small political parties in Israel or resistance splinter-groups in Gaza, up through national governments of any country in the world to supra-national organizations like the EU, the "Quartet", and the UN.

Principal Signatories to the Agreement

The governments of Israel and Palestine (currently the Palestinian National Authority) are the principal signatories. Obviously their adoption of the agreement is crucial to making it happen. However, we are aiming for and asking for as many political parties and factions as possible on both sides to accept the agreement, adopt it and sign it. This is to ensure the widest possible commitment to implementation of the agreement in Israel and Palestine.

Co-signatories to the Agreement

The governments of every other country in the world, plus supra-national organizations like the EU and UN, are potential co-signatories of the Just Peace Agreement. By signing along with Palestine and Israel, they commit themselves to supporting the principal signatories in implementing the agreement and to playing their part in resettling Paletinian refugees, staffing the various international bodies needed for implementation, and contributing the funds and resources necessary for the 15-year economic development program.

Neighboring States

Some of the countries next door to Israel and Palestine have special roles in the agreement, which we request them to carry out as co-signatories. Egypt and Saudi Arabia are asked to donate territory to Palestine, tripling the size of the new state. Jordan and Syria, along with Israel, are asked to make smaller donations of territory to make Palestine the same size as Israel. Some of these countries, along with Lebanon, are host states of Palestinian refugees, involving them also in special roles for resettling and rehabilitating the refugees.
