Building massively-visible mass support
for an evenhanded two-state solution
for Israel & Palestine

Introducing Support Sanity™

Support Sanity is an independent public campaign
devoted to:

  • Building massively-visible mass support for an evenhanded two-state solution to the Israel-Palestine conflict;

  • Affirming the common humanity of both Palestinians and Israelis;

  • Promoting the mass display of a simple, "symmetrically-affirmative" symbol that concretely embodies this humane and practical perspective: the Israeli and Palestinian flags crossed in friendship over the motto "Justice · Peace · Life".

The centerpiece of our campaign is an attractive and inexpensive lapel pin that we are encouraging supporters of a just peace to wear as part of their everyday attire.  Through this work we seek to help shape American public opinion and, through that, U.S. foreign policy.

We work with groups and individuals around the United States and around the world, including Israel and Palestine. Please contact us if you are interested in working with us in any way whatsoever. We’re creative and we’ll do our best to work out a suitable arrangement. We can even help you set up a similar campaign outside the United States.

Although we work with many individuals and groups, as an independent campaign Support Sanity is not an arm of any of them. We have no hidden connections or ulterior motives and no hidden agenda.

In keeping with the notion of being the change we hope to effect, Support Sanity seeks to operate as a Jewish-Arab/Muslim partnership to the greatest degree possible while welcoming all people of good will regardless of ethnicity or other factors.

Support Sanity is based in Chicago and is sponsored by Ideas in Action LLC. We are currently exploring alternative means of institutionalizing this work.

Endorsements

A range of groups and individuals have endorsed Support Sanity's work. Additional endorsements can be found on the Friends & Facts and the Testimonials pages. We'd love for you to add yours.

For our more moderate guests the Support Sanity site is an absolute must - very well put together ... and packed full of wonderful information, links, and other content. Check out their excellent emblem - the Palestinian and Israeli flags crossed with the motto "Justice, Peace, Life" beneath. Truly a splendid initiative and well worth half an hour exploring all their pages and information. They also sell a full range products advertising the emblem described above.

Jewish Friends of Palestine

 
 

Support Sanity is a valuable networking opportunity for Arabs and Jews to come together for a positive purpose. In this country, perception is often reality and symbols and icons are very powerful tools. The image of a Palestinian flag and an Israeli flag together helps those visionaries who aspire to peace and compromise see what their efforts might bring.

Gush Shalom Israel Palestine Lapel PinThanks to Gush Shalom

The Support Sanity lapel pin was inspired by a similar pin produced by the Israeli peace group Gush Shalom. The Gush Shalom pin features the Israeli and Palestinian flags crossed over the Gush Shalom group name in Hebrew and is worn mainly in Israel by Gush Shalom supporters. Please contact Gush Shalom directly for more information about their work and/or to get one of their lapel pins.
