Aims of this blog

The Palestinian-Israeli conflict is one of the most significant conflicts of our era. Not in terms of loss of human lives (the conflict in Syria has lost more human beings from conflict in recent years). It is significant because of the amount of daily political and media exposure it receives in western countries. It is significant for those who have loved ones (regardless from what background) living in the region. It is significant for those who seek to ensure the international community upholds principles that are fair and just to all parties.

This blog has been created to promote events that involve speakers discussing the situation of Palestine and Israel.

This blog is an attempt to show that peace is possible for Palestinians, Palestinian-Israelis and Jewish-Israelis. The hope is that each community will be able to be brave and fearless in addressing wrongs committed in the past, and to work towards building a community for all in the region.
