YPO should take a balanced stand and not taking Palestines name is incorrect. YPO has members from all countries /Nationalities hence it should be neutral.

For an apolitical organisation YPO has taken an equivocal position.
The lack of framing is deplorable no mention of the brutality of Israel's apartheid policies on the Palestinians.
It is as if Palestinians were born vile terrorists.
Palestinians are not antisemitic; they abhor their occupiers and jailers.
Palestinians revolted against Egyptian rule in the 1830s, against Ottoman rule during World War I, against British rule in the 1930s, against the Jordanian monarchy in 1970 and against Maronite supremacy in Lebanon in 1975.
If Palestinians were occupied by little green men from Mars, they would resist!
Palestinians do not resist against the Israelis occupation because they are Jewish; they fight because they took our land and our rights.

The statement's bias is blatant towards the Israeli regime by not even mentioning Palestinians. It is against the non partisan, all inclusive, non-bias ethos it is supposed to advocate.

I understand YPO leadership is in a difficult situation of when to comment on world affairs and when not. Once it does, it needs to be consistent and balanced. I have read there have now been a lot of strikes on civilians in Gaza, so it seems YPO would need to comment on loss of life there, taking the stance that all loss of life is a tragedy.

YPO is a global organisation of diverse business leaders. Such an organisation is not obligated to come out with a statement in support of a particular political position that only reflects the opinion of a set number of members. If YPO must comment on a political situation, the comments have to be balanced and neutral.

YPO has the power to change the world and create DEEP exponential impact that affects all of humanity. War is bipolar event. A balanced view from YPO leaders which represents voice of its members will send the "right" message to people "who walk the power corridors". Meanwhile the entire YPO community MUST work together to help those who need help TODAY.
