Ameinu
Ameinu, "the leading grassroots progressive Zionist organization in the United States and the U.S. affiliate of the World Labor Zionist Movement, is dedicated to promoting a negotiated peace between Israel, the Palestinians and the Arab states, and to social and economic justice for all in Israel and America...
"In 2003, the predecessor of Ameinu, the Labor Zionist Alliance (LZA), began a process of self-evaluation and strategic planning to see how it could better serve the American Jewish community. The result of this process is the establishment of Ameinu, an organization working for a progressive Israel and America. Ameinu can now benefit from a rich 100-year history in America and existing infrastructure of the LZA, while actively recruiting new members and leaders." [1]
