It has come to my attention that this resolution may have unintended consequences, <br />particularly in terms of its portrayal and implications regarding Israel. <br />I believe it is crucial for such resolutions to be balanced and considerate of the complex realities of international conflicts. The <br />current draft, as I understand it, seems to adopt a one-sided narrative that does not fully capture the intricacies of the Israeli - <br />Palestinian conflict. Such a perspective may inadvertently foster misconceptions and could contribute to a rise in tension and <br />antisemitism within our community. <br />It is my sincere hope that the Santa Ana City Council will consider these factors carefully. An ideal resolution would be one that <br />promotes understanding, peace, and coexistence, rather than deepening divisions. It is essential to approach these sensitive <br />matters with a view towards constructive dialogue and reconciliation. <br />I respect the challenges involved in addressing such complex international issues at the local government level. However, I urge <br />you to reconsider the current stance of the resolution to ensure it aligns with values of fairness, truth, and community harmony. <br />Thank you for your attention to this matter and for your ongoing service to our community. <br />Sincerely, <br />Julia Burton <br />
