Extract from the #jewish #arab declaration for peace: We, who believe in the way of democracy and peace, call to: 1. Strive for a stable #ceasefire, within which negotiations for a political agreement will be started immediately based on mutual recognition of the right of the two peoples to self-determination - an agreement that will guarantee security, freedom and well-being for both peoples. 2. Immediately promote a broad prisoner deal ("all for all"). 3. Immediately stop harming innocent civilians. There isn't and cannot be any justification for harming the innocent. 4. Act immediately to curb the rampant settler violence in the West Bank with the backing of the army, and to curb the transfer that this violence is trying to promote. 5. Stop the persecution and oppression of Palestinian Citizens of Israel and of those who express solidarity with the residents of Gaza and oppose the war. Stop the violation of basic rights, including freedom of expression, freedom of demonstration, and more. We have all experienced the rounds of violence. Timen and time again it is evident that there is no military solution to this conflict, nor can there ever be one. The only way to stop the bloodshed is a political agreement that will guarantee security, justice and freedom for both nations. There are no winners in war. Only peace will bring security.
