''For the Canadian group see Independent Jewish Voices (Canada). For the Australian group see Independent Australian Jewish Voices.'' Independent Jewish Voices (IJV) is an organization launched on 5 February 2007 by 150 prominent British Jews such as Nobel laureate Harold Pinter, historian Eric Hobsbawm, lawyer Sir Geoffrey Bindman, Lady Ellen Dahrendorf, film director Mike Leigh, and actors Stephen Fry and Zoë Wanamaker. The organization is reportedly "born out of a frustration with the widespread misconception that the Jews of this country speak with one voice—and that this voice supports the Israeli government's policies".〔Martin Beckford, ("Jewish Group Rejects Uncritical Support of Israel," ) ''The Daily Telegraph'' 5 February 2007, accessed 6 February 2007.〕 IJV stated it was founded "to represent British Jews...in response to a perceived pro-Israeli bias in existing Jewish bodies in the UK", and, according to Hobsbawn, "as a counter-balance to the uncritical support for Israeli policies by established bodies such as the Board of Deputies of British Jews".〔Martin Hodgson, ("British Jews Break Away from 'pro-Israeli' Board of Deputies," ) ''The Independent'' 5 February 2007, accessed 6 February 2007.〕 ==Declaration== The group's Declaration states:〔("Declaration." ) ''Independent Jewish Voices'' 5 February 2007, accessed 6 February 2007.〕 Its signatories attest to being guided by five principles presented in the Declaration:
#Human rights are universal and indivisible and should be upheld without exception. This is as applicable in Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories as it is elsewhere. #Palestinians and Israelis alike have the right to peace and security. #Peace and stability require the willingness of all parties to the conflict to comply with international law. #There is no justification for any form of racism, including anti-Semitism, anti-Arab racism or Islamophobia, in any circumstance. #The battle against anti-Semitism is vital and is undermined whenever opposition to Israeli government policies is automatically branded as anti-Semitic.〔
Signatories to the Declaration state their shared beliefs that "the interests of an occupying power should not count for more than the human rights of an occupied people" and that "the Palestinian inhabitants of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip face appalling living conditions with desperately little hope for the future"; they pledge their "support for a properly negotiated peace between the Israeli and Palestinian people and oppose any attempt by the Israeli government to impose its own solutions on the Palestinians".〔
