Avner, one of the founders of Combatants for Peace shared at this memorial event: “As long as we refuse to acknowledge that there is no democracy with a military regime in our backyard, [and] continue to deny the identity of the Palestinians as the children of this land… we will know no quiet. We must insist that there is another way.” Want to be involved in our joint nonviolent movement?

The ceasefire in Gaza does not make us lose sight of the daily violence of the occupation in the West Bank. Friday, we protested against settler terrorism targeting Palestinian communities during the olive harvest season, with the complicity of the Israeli army. Avner Wishnitzer, co-founder of CfP, said he was “hopeful to see that even under these conditions, and after the bloodbath in Gaza, we can still be here together, Israelis and Palestinians”. We will continue to oppose impunity, injustice

Although our Palestinian activists couldn’t join physically, they wanted to send a message or support. As a binational movement working within a system of separation aimed at keeping us apart, we find other creative methods to nonviolently co-resist injustice. Here is Sulaiman Khatib, one of the Palestinian Co-founders of the movement supporting the thousands of others who attended the People’s Peace Conference in Jerusalem, demanding peace, an end to the war and equality for all. @itstime2024__

In the West Bank, refugee camps in Jenin and Tulkarm face renewed suffering. The ceremony reflects on the enduring cycle of displacement and loss that Palestinians have experi
