For the past 5 years, since the end of the last Gaza war in the summer of 2014, the most active and persistent movement for peace in Israel has been
Women Wage Peace. In order to prevent the next war by insisting on the need for a diplomatic agreement to end the conflict, a small group of Jewish women banded together to form this impressive and very active peace movement which now numbers 43,000 people in Israel, including Israeli Arab Palestinian women and some men who have joined the movement. And it is growing and expanding all the time, reaching out to Palestinian women
on the other side, forging relationships of friendship and trust, spreading a much needed message of peace and harmony, and increasing love and mutual understanding, through non-violent methods and dialogue.
