The Ariel Center for Policy
Research (ACPR) was established in 1997 as a non-profit, non-partisan
organization, committed to stimulating and informing the national and
international debates concerning all aspects of security policy - notably those
policies which are an outcome of the political process started in Oslo and
subsequently called the Peace Process.
Peace is a noble challenge and
there is no other nation in the world which needs peace more than Israel.
However, a true peace can only be obtained in the Middle East if Israeli
security and national interests are safeguarded. A peace which will force Israel
to its pre-1967 borders, i.e. losing those territorial assets critically needed
for the very existence of the Jewish State will not be but a recipe for war.
The ACPR has taken upon
itself to help crystallize a strategic design for the State of Israel. This will
be presented to the policy-makers and general public by various means. Among
them, research and policy papers, forums of experts, video and film productions,
an internet site, publishing house and a major journal of strategic thought.
