Creative Community for Peace (CCFP) stands firmly with Israel’s right to defend itself and its citizens against existential threats.
Iran is not only a threat to Israel—it is the single most destabilizing force in the region and a global sponsor of terror. Through its support for Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, and its tyrannical oppression of its own people, the Iranian government has fueled war, extremism, and suffering across the Middle East. And a nuclear-armed Iran would present an existential threat not only to Israel, but to civilians in the entire region.
Israel, like any sovereign nation, has both the right and the duty to defend its citizens. The strikes on Iranian military assets are a defensive response aimed at degrading Iran’s nuclear capabilities.
Throughout history, Iran has used moments like this to attack Jewish communities around the world. At this tenuous moment, we call on our colleagues in the entertainment community to stand with the Jewish community and use their platforms to encourage peace.
