The world is a dangerous place to live; not because of the people who are evil,    but because of the people who don't do anything about it

Occupation magazine - Activism Home page  back Print  Send To friend Israelis and Palestinians in Grassroots Negotiations Congress Israelis and Palestinians will negotiate solutions to the conflict at two locations in two simulataneous events at the center of Tel-Aviv: Youth - In the Salon Conference Hall, ZOA House; Adults - In an open public place in front of ZOA House Time and place: ZOA House, 1 Daniel Frisch St., Tel Aviv, Israel - Sunday, April 17, 2016, 10AM – 5PM Each congress invites an Israeli delegation and a Palestinian delegation to negotiate solutions to the conflict. The negotiations are conducted in front of an audience which is invited to participate in the peacemaking process. Obviously, neither delegation is in any way empowered or authorized to actually negotiate and reach a binding agreement; rather, the purpose of this event – as of previous ones – is to show that unofficial Israelis and unofficial Palestinians, representing a wide cross-section of the grassroots of their respective societies, can sit down in amity, tackle even the most difficult issues and reach agreement – even under the present highly inauspicious conditions of violence, bloodshed and deep mutual distrust. It is the organizers’ hope that the success of such unofficial negotiations would help inspire – and push – the official leaderships on both sides eventually reach a binding agreement – and implement it!
