World Jews Congress (WJC) resolution.
"World Jews Congress (WJC) considers the dialogue between Jewish and Muslim worlds to be a priority issue. Nowadays when Israel is faced with unexampled terrorist actions and Jewish community all over the world meets the new wave of anti-Semitic and anti-Zionistic movements the development of constructive dialogue with Muslims is vitally important. The contacts with Muslim communities outside the Arabic world are particularly important.
It is necessary to treat Muslims as our partners in a dialogue as they raise the objection to terror, race conflicts, anti-Semitism and aggressive political extremism. They can become a reliable partner in our struggle against terror. The experience of Kazakhstan revealed at current session of WJC proves vitality of such cooperation. Considering aforesaid and the fact of excising of such program in borders of Euro-Asian Jewish Congress (EAJC) WJC recommends the Jewish community to co-operate and to support this program as high priority.
[The Resolution is offered by EAJC and Turkish Jewish community and confirmed at the session of the WJC executive committee session in Jerusalem, 3d October, 2002.]
