The Jewish Authority in the Land of Israel

12 Elul 5771 September 11, 2011

The Secretary-General of the United Nations The President of the Security Council The President of the General Assembly Gentlemen, It is with great pleasure that we bring to your attention that on September 8, 2011 the Jewish Authority in the Land of Israel was proclaimed as a political and legal entity at an assembly of the residents of the Land of Israel convened in Nofim, in the Shomron (Samaria). The Jewish Authority in the Land of Israel derives its legal existence from the title of sovereignty of the Jewish People over the regions of Yehuda (Judah) and Shomron (Samaria) granted by the Almighty to their ancestors and subsequently recognized by the Principal Allied Powers in April 1920 at the Peace Conference convened in San Remo, Italy; confirmed by the Council of the League of Nations in July 1922; and preserved by Article 80 of the Charter of the United Nations adopted in 1946 though as yet not implemented by the State of Israel. The confirmed existing sovereignty of the Jewish People over the regions of Yehuda and Shomron precludes any legal possibility of recognizing any foreign political entity that may claim sovereignty over this area, and any decision in favor of such recognition is patently illegal and as such is null and void. The Provisional Executive Committee of the Jewish Authority in the Land of Israel will hold within one year free democratic elections in which registered residents of Judah and Samaria will be eligible to choose their own leadership. Very sincerely,

THE PROVISIONAL EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE,

THE JEWISH AUTHORITY IN THE LAND OF ISRAEL
