Who We Are
We are a group of Israeli women and men convinced that the military control over the Palestinian population and the settlement of the occupied territories are the two fundamental problems of the State of Israel. We work to change the situation for the benefit of all Palestinians and Israelis.
The Vision
Placing the necessity of ending the occupation and its injustices at the center of Israeli public discourse, while supporting efforts to establish a just peace.
Principles of Action
Group members participate in actions that serve the cause, taking personal responsibility. We work on protecting Palestinians, public protest, and media outreach.
The reality in the occupied territories and Israel requires activists to respond quickly and decisively to challenging events.
