We had a wonderful evening at WESPAC last night with Professor Oren Yiftachel who presented A Land for All.
A Land for All is a shared movement of Israelis and Palestinians who believe that the way towards peace, security and stability for all passes through two independent states, Israel and Palestine, within a joint framework allowing both peoples to live together and apart. Israeli-Jews and Arab-Palestinians are heavily intertwined on both sides of the Green Line and therefore building walls between them is neither realistic nor desirable. Recognizing that both Jews and Palestinians are part of the same shared homeland, and respecting their equal individual and national rights, A Land for All provides pragmatic and viable solutions to the obstacles that have stymied prior negotiations, moving us from a paradigm of separation towards a future based on power sharing and shared interests.
A very big thank you to Steve Koffler who connected WESPAC with this important inspiring peace movement and who also facilitated yesterday’s discussion: https://youtu.be/KSQ1bJvWSL0? si=8PYm3Cw_iqIUu9Ed
