Saturday night protests: No to Netanyahu`s war!
Saturday night protests: No to Netanyahu`s war! Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Haifa No to Netanyahu`s war! We will not let the war stop us - we will stop the war! Netanyahu has chosen to sacrifice the hostages, to risk our lives and lead us to cruel death - all, . out of his cynical political interests. We will not let this pass! We will gather on Saturday night, March 22, to demand an end to the war and the return of the hostages - now! Protest schedule: Jerusalem - Meet at 19:30 on Zion Square, marching, rally on Paris Square on 20:15 Tel Aviv: Rally at corner of Begin and Kaplan 19:15 Haifa: Meet 18:00 at The Auditorium, marching, rally 19:00 at Horev Center
Adam Keller in Berlin, Sept 5-8
Dear Friends The political and non-political decorations accumulated over several decades on the walls of my modest apartment in Holon (suburb of Tel Aviv) - put up, over the years, by myself and by my late unforgettable wife Beate - have attracted the attention of the highly professional photographer Ruth Nemet (my cousin). She spent many hours going systematically over the apartment and taking many photos of the walls. The result is going to be presented in a Berlin gallery (BQ Weydingerstrasse 10, Berlin) on September 6. I felt I should be there in person. You are most welcome to attend, I think it is worthwhile. In fact, Ruth`s photos look more impressive than the actual walls of my home... My short visit to Berlin (Sept. 5 to 8) is also a very welcome opportunity to meet my son Uri (resident of Berlin for some years already) as well as my Berlin friends and contacts. I will have with me my Israeli phone (+972-54-2340749) which is supposed to be fully operative also in Germany. Anyone who cannot attend the exhibition and would still like to contact me is welcome to call. Yours, Adam Keller - Gush Shalom
Israeli activists call on new UK government to recognize Palestine. Demonstration today at British Embassy in Tel Aviv. Stop Considering – Recognize NOW!
On July 4, 2024, a political upheaval took place in Great Britain: The Labour Party won an overwhelming majority in Parliament—the largest in its history. On Friday, August 23, 12:00, we will stand in front of the British Embassy, 192 Yarakon Street, Tel Aviv, calling on British Prime Minister Keir Starmer to: Fulfill his repeated commitment to recognize the State of Palestine. Act to end the murderous and senseless war against the Palestinian people, which the occupation government insists on continuing indefinitely. Act in the spirit of the ICJ ruling to end the occupation and establish Israeli-Palestinian peace. In plain English: Stop Considering – Recognize the State of Palestine NOW!
On Bastille Day, we demonstrate and call on France to recognize Palestine
Can this conference inspire a new Israeli-Palestinian peace movement?
Maoz Inon and Aziz Abu Sarah are an unlikely pair. Inon, 49, is an Israeli tourism entrepreneur and the founder of Abraham Hostels. He lost both of his parents, who lived on Kibbutz Netiv HaAsara, during the Hamas-led assault on October 7. Abu Sarah, 44, is a Palestinian peace activist, journalist, and tourism entrepreneur who founded MEJDI Tours, and a resident of East Jerusalem (and a former +972 contributor). When Aziz was 9 years old, his older brother Taiseer was arrested and held in prison for nearly a year; shortly after his release, Taiseer died of internal injuries he sustained while being tortured in prison. The two met after Abu Sarah wrote to Inon in the days after October 7, expressing his condolences for Inon’s murdered family. Since then, they have been leading a personal and public campaign against revenge and in favor of reconciliation. They have spoken in media interviews, conferences, and home circles, held an open conversation at a TED conference, and met with diplomats and, recently, with the Pope. Together with dozens of organizations, Inon is now leading an event titled “It’s Time — The Great Peace Conference,” which will take place on July 1 in Tel Aviv, and is expected to be the largest formal left-wing gathering in recent decades. Delegations representing vast swaths of Israeli and Palestinian society will be in attendance, with artists, politicians, and intellectuals expected to speak. The event will screen a video message from Abu Sarah, who is currently abroad. In an interview with +972 and Local Call, Inon and Abu Sarah discussed the new peace process they are promoting, the goals of the conference, and how they plan to convince their respective general publics to support their work.
Anti-war rally in Tel Aviv
In spite of the harassment of the police, controlled by the racist minister Ben Gvir, we raise a loud and clear voice against the war and the occupation. Rally at 5.30 PM today (Sat. June 8) at Habima Square, Tel Aviv to commemorate the 57th anniversary of the occupation and protest the ongoing war in Gaza and the harsh occupation on the West Bank.
Young Israelis go to prison rather than take part in the Gaza War
Young Israelis go to prison rather than take part in the Gaza War Hi, my name is Einat Gerlitz, and last year I refused to serve in the Israeli military. A year ago, I was imprisoned in military prison for 87 days for refusing to enlist. Throughout the process of my refusal, I received the legal, political and social support of Mesarvot Network, the only network for Israeli conscientious objectors. During these tough times of war, our hope lies in nonviolent civil resistance. That is why I’m proud to be part of Mesarvot Network, especially in the darkest of times, as we refuse to stay silent. Brave young people like Tal and Sofia are refusing to serve a cycle of violence, and by their refusal create an alternative.
Netanyahu flagrantly refuses to comply with the ceasefire resolution. The Security Council must take firm action!
Stop considering – Recognize Palestine Now!
members of the International Community must state a straight forward position - a Palestinian state is a vital and immediate necessity. Its sovereignty must be recognized within the internationally recognized borders - those of June 5, 1967. Recognition of the State of Palestine by the International Community, and especially by the powers that support Israel, can be a decisive step. It might bring to a successful conclusion an inclusive and calculated international struggle against the occupation and for the establishment of an independent Palestinian state alongside the State of Israel. We, Arab and Jewish citizens of Israel, will meet on Friday, March 15, 14:00, at 99 Hayarkon St./Frishman St. in Tel Aviv, and march towards the United States Embassy (71 Hayarkon St., Tel Aviv), demanding the recognition of a Palestinian state now. Already months ago, the United States said it was "considering" a recognition of Palestine - as did Britain and other Western countries. We call on them to stop considering and proceed here and now with recognizing Palestine.
US involvement in the Gaza carnage: Protests in Tel Aviv - and in Boston, Chicago, and Los Angeles
Food Not Bombs: Rally at the US Embassy in Tel Aviv! No to U.S-produced massacre, weapons shipment, and diplomatic impunity! American and Israeli citizens will gather tomorrow, Friday March 3, at the US Embassy (Hayarkon St, Tel Aviv) to demand the US stop arming Israel and end the massacre. Last week over 100 Palestinians were killed and over 750 injured after Israeli troops opened fire at a convoy of food trucks in Gaza City during what has been called the “Flour Massacre.” Since then, the US air dropped food into Gaza - all while continuing to fund the military assault, ship weapons, and provide total diplomatic impunity. The US dropped a mere 38,000 meals - enough only for one meal for just 1.6% of the population. Join us to demand the US stop arming Israel and a ceasefire now.
