LOS ANGELES (Press Release) — StandWithUs released a comprehensive report titled “Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP): A Shield for Hate, Not a Voice for Peace,” exposing the extremist ideology, dangerous alliances, and harmful actions of JVP.

The report highlights JVP’s role in fueling antisemitism, partnering with groups connected to terrorism, and undermining efforts to achieve genuine peace between Israelis and Palestinians. JVP’s collaboration with Samidoun, an organization sanctioned by the U.S. and Canada for funding terrorism, is among the many disturbing facts exposed in the report.

“JVP’s harmful rhetoric and alliances make it clear they are not a voice for peace. This organization fuels hate and shields extremists from accountability, while doing nothing to bring about peaceful coexistence.” said Roz Rothstein, StandWithUs Co-Founder and CEO. “To help fight rising antisemitism, the public, media, and leaders across our society must finally recognize JVP’s dangerous agenda and reject it.”

The report provides detailed evidence about how JVP:

–Partners with Samidoun, an organization sanctioned by the U.S. and Canada for funding terrorism. JVP has also campaigned in support of Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) terrorists, hosted PFLP members at events, and partnered with groups that openly support PFLP and other terrorist organizations including Within Our Lifetime (page 10).

–Promotes antisemitic rhetoric and campaigns, including conspiracy theories like “Deadly Exchange,” which falsely blames Israel and Jewish groups for police brutality in the U.S.

–Supports extremism, amplifying voices and organizations that incite violence and reject Israel’s right to exist.

–Has questionable funding sources and foreign connections with Lebanon and Iran, meriting further investigation.

–Weaponizes Jewish identity, attempting to shield extremists from criticism for hateful rhetoric and actions. Too often, this prevents the vast majority of the Jewish community from being taken seriously when speaking out about antisemitism.

Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) positions itself as a representative of Jews who advocate for peace and human rights. However, the StandWithUs report provides extensive evidence showing how JVP’s campaigns to eliminate Israel only fuel more hatred and conflict. It makes clear that JVP represents a very small minority of Jews, while the vast majority remain connected to Israel and see efforts to end its existence as an antisemitic threat.
