As spring unfolds, it brings with it the renewal and hope embodied in both Passover and Easter - holidays that remind us of liberation, sacrifice, and the resilience of the human spirit. This season calls us to reflect on the struggles of the past and the promise of a better future. Yet, as we mark these holidays, our hearts remain heavy. In Gaza, unimaginable suffering and starvation persist, while Israeli hostages remain abandoned in captivity. The Israeli government refuses to pursue a political deal that could end the bombardment and bring its own citizens home. Instead, it chooses to bolster violent settlers, empower far-right radicals within its own cabinet, and ignore the hundreds of thousands of Israelis protesting in the streets demanding an end to the war and calling for new elections. It is clear - while we choose hope, they choose despair. While we choose humanity, they choose brutality.
We are angry, but we are not defeated. As we approach the 20th Joint Israeli-Palestinian Memorial Ceremony, we see our community rising - growing in strength and numbers despite the efforts of those in power to silence us. | As a way to thank you for continuing to believe in us - we would like to invite you to an exclusive virtual screening of There is Another Way, a powerful new documentary that follows the courageous journey of Combatants for Peace after October 7th.

There is Another Way - Exclusive Virtual Screening & Conversation Screening: April 11th - 15th Zoom: April 15th 9pm Jerusalem l 7pm London l 8pm Berlin We are limited to 500 participants, so please register today to secure your place in this important event. | | Please note: The film includes bodycam and video footage from Hamas and from the Israeli military as well as those impacted by the ongoing violence. While we believe it is important to use these images to tell the story, it may be difficult for some to watch. Viewer discretion is advised. There Is Another Way tells the story of a group of visionaries who refuse to surrender to violence and injustice, showing that another path is possible—for them, for us, and for all of humanity. As we are all faced with essential questions about who we are, will we choose collective liberation, where the needs, rights, and safety of all are prioritized, and our humanity comes first, knowing that no one is free until everyone is free? | | None of us have been the same since October 7th and the horrors that followed. Join us as we reflect on our movement and reaffirm our commitment to peace. Register now - don’t miss this opportunity to connect and be part of the change.
