The co-chairwomen of the Sovereignty Movement, Yehudit Katsover and Nadia Matar, who are leading the event’s production, together with Atty. Nili Naouri of Israel is Forever stress that the application of sovereignty over the Jordan Valley enjoys broad national consensus that includes members of Knesset and ministers in almost all factions in the Knesset. “The support for sovereignty over the Valley is sweeping . There is no reason why the Israeli leadership should not to take this important and widely-accepted step, determine the eastern border of the State of Israel, unify the people and wave anew the banner of the Zionist aspiration for sovereignty. It is possible and important to do this now”.
