Get Involved

So, you've gone through our website and now have a good understanding of why JDL exists and what JDL does. Perhaps you were a casual supporter before but weren't all that well-versed in the ins and outs of the League. Maybe you were skeptical or even somewhat hostile toward JDL until you read through our site to find out the truth about us. What's next?

If you want to help JDL out but know if you're ready to be a member, get in touch with us and ask any questions you may have. Sign up for one of our email lists. Keep in touch with JDL and be sure to visit our new site often as we vastly expand its contents. And if you happen to hear of something that could be a JDL issue, be sure to let us know about it!

If you support JDL's objectives but know that JDL membership is probably not right for you, consider helping our cause with a donation. Our world-class new website may look and function like a million bucks, but JDL runs financially on what other, more mainstream Jewish organizations would consider spare change by comparison. When you donate to JDL, you can rest assured that every single dollar counts.

If you are ready to make one of the greatest commitments to Jewish survival, become a member in good standing of the Jewish Defense League. JDL in 2009 is gaining a strong head of steam. With jdl.org version 4 we now have an unrivalled web platform, and our new site is being accompanied by a variety of new organizational programs and initiatives that are serving to strengthen our cause immensely. New members are signing up on a daily basis, and a number of very promising new JDL Leaders are accepting the call to JDL leadership. And this is all just the beginning of JDL's resurgence, B"H!

From the depths of the horrific loss of our one of a kind International Chairman, Irv Rubin, ז״ל הי״ד early this decade, JDL has rebounded in a dramatic way. Yes, our organization will likely never even come close to filling the void left by his untimely passing, but we know that Irv and Rabbi Kahane would have to be proud of our efforts. JDL is now uniquely positioned to expand its reach and influence, and aside from JDL's bygone heyday, this may well be the best time ever to join JDL. And with your help and G-d's blessing, JDL could grow to rival even its loftiest levels of past power. If you are an upstanding person - Jew or non-Jew - who agrees with JDL philosophy you should strongly consider joining us.

If, however, you fall into a different category entirely and loathe us rather than love us, we have some recommendations for you as well. You could take a long walk off a short pier. If you're of the terrorist persuasion, you could involve yourself in a "work accident." If you hate JDL and you happen to be Jewish, you could reverse your Bris Milah (if you even have one) and give up your birthright. However, our fervent hope for you is that you take a second, refrain from hating us for a brief moment, and think critically about your positions and world-view. If you think hard enough, you may be able to see the light. If instead you wish to continue hating us, JDL will always be prepared for the fight.
