Korea


Resolution Adopted by the CCAR

KOREA

Digests of resolutions adopted by the

Central Conference of American Rabbis

between 1889 and 1974

1. The Central Conference of American Rabbis is dedicated to the cause of

international

peace based on law and justice. Therefore it has condemned Communist

aggression in

Korea and has supported UN action to resist such aggression.

Sympathetic with the legitimate aspirations of the South Korean people for

unification,

we nevertheless appeal to President Rhee to cooperate with the United Nations

in

a truce which will immediately halt bloodshed and will permit an orderly

solution

of the Korean problems. We wholeheartedly approve President Eisenhower’s

efforts to secure

an immediate truce based on United Nations resolutions. (1953, p. 195)
