3 The following statement went out to the media, and was posted on our national website and Facebook page, following yesterday's (December 7, 2017) announcement. We applaud the US Administration for its historic recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of the state of Israel for the first time in seven decades. Hadassah has always viewed Jerusalem as the capital of the state of Israel, and reaffirms its unwavering support for a united Jerusalem. All democracies have the ability to choose their own capital, and so too must Israel. Its government buildings including the Knesset and the Supreme Court have been located in the city of Jerusalem since the country declared its independence in Historically and politically, spiritually and culturally, Jerusalem represents the heart and soul of the Jewish people. Our two hospital campuses lie within the holy city, and have transcended politics for nearly 100 years by offering top-notch medical care to anyone in need regardless of religion, race or national origin. Only under Israeli sovereignty has Jerusalem and its religious sites been open to all people. Hadassah Medical Organization has served, and will continue to serve, as a beacon of peace in the region. We offer our sincere hope for calm throughout the region during this transition. We applaud the recognition of the city we hold so dear, and continue to advocate for a peaceful solution where all can live in safety and security. We are non-partisan. We have members in every Congressional District who cross the political spectrum and represent all streams of Judaism, yet we all keep Jerusalem in our collective minds and hearts. B'Shalom, Ellen Hershkin Hadassah National President Incoming presidents, Gail Reifenberg and Claire Lazar with Carol Charen, Regional Excecutive Vice President as Installing Officer. 3

UN Partition Plan at 70 Wednesday, Nov 29 2017 www.hadassah.org News & Stories The 1947 UN Partition Plan would be one of the final hurdles in ending a 2000-year exile for the Jews.

10 UN Partition Plan at 70 Wednesday, Nov News & Stories The 1947 UN Partition Plan would be one of the final hurdles in ending a 2000-year exile for the Jews. Zionists around the world rejoiced as the news came in. The majority of UN member states believed in establishing a state for the Jewish people in their ancestral homeland. Though all UN General Assembly resolutions are in reality more recommendation than law, this resolution gave the Jewish Agency the last push in its many steps toward statehood. Israel declared independence just six months later. It also established the idea of two states for two peoples. The plan was not without flaws; both Jews and Arabs would have to give up territory in order to bring the two-state partition to fruition. The Jews accepted the plan, and the Palestinians, backed by the Arab League, rejected it. To date, no reconciliation plan has been successful. And while we know that Israel's near 70-year history has been marred with immeasurable conflict and strife, we mark this anniversary with joy. This coming May, we will kvell at all the many accomplishments our young country has made. Medicine, science, hi-tech, the arts, you name it Israel has advanced it. The Partition Plan, in its way, represented so much of Hadassah's mission and work coming to fruition: The Zionist dream we interminably worked for was recognized by the United Nations. Zionism would no longer be merely a far-off aspiration; it would be a reality. Additionally, the Partition Plan provided a place for both Jews and Arabs to live in dignity and security. Henrietta Szold believed steadfastly in two things: first and foremost, the right of the Jews to have a state in the land of Israel, and, secondly, that all living in that land deserved top-notch medical care regardless of race, religion or ethnicity. When the Arab League rejected the plan outright and the Jews embraced it, there was great unrest. Arab troops blocked the access road to Hadassah Hospital Mount Scopus, as well as Hebrew University. In an effort to get much needed medical personnel and equipment to the hospital, Hadassah sent a convoy of 105 people, two ambulances, medical and military equipment, escorted by two Haganah (pre-state Israeli military forces) armored vehicles through the only remaining narrow road through an Arab neighborhood. The convoy was ambushed, and 79 were brutally murdered. This is a profoundly tragic moment in our organization's history, made ever more bitter by the fact that Henrietta Szold welcomed all patients without discrimination. While the battle for Independence raged, Hadassah clinics helped the wounded and infirm, and served as a diplomatic model for the possibility of coexistence. To this day, the Hadassah Medical Organization provides care to anyone in need and strives to be a beacon of peace in the region. We know that even though we have a strong state of Israel, Zionism's mission is not over. We engage in practical Zionism every day through philanthropic endeavors, efforts to engage our members in learning about Zionism, Judaism and Israel advocacy, we provide paths to making Aliyah, and programs for young people to go to Israel for a gap year to deepen their connections to Israel and Zionism, to name a few. So on November 29, 2017, the 70th anniversary of the plan that would inscribe our claim to statehood, we recognize the complexities of our history as we mark this day with pride. 10
