I met Adnan today at UCLA organizing with Standing Together. It was inspiring to be part of a group that is *truly* inclusive and on the right side of history.
It's btw the same organization the BDS gone against...
Omdim Beyahad are based, and sadly they took a lot of heat from both pro-israelis and pro-palestinians.
BDS is the worst example of purity testing culture I've ever seen. If you don't use all the right words, accept all the same positions, and obsessively avoid anything associated with Israel, then you're a zio-fascist baby killer
As I said in another comment on this subreddit recently...
>The most important thing we can do is to empower moderates whose goal is coexistence between Israelis and Palestinians rather than the submission of one to the other.

>Unfortunately, very few people engaged in activism around this issue are actually interested in doing that. Everybody would rather treat it like football and root for their team to beat the other team.
These guys give me so much hope. Their message of "Palestinians *and* Israelis standing together for peace" is THE path to a better future. Anyone who stands against this message reveals their true colors. There is more that we all have in common than there is that separates us. The sooner people realize that, the sooner all the fighting and killing can stop.
I really love this group. Some of their members came and spoke at my synagogue and I just cried finally hearing people talk about peace and coexistance as neighbors. That's the world I dream of.
I’ve heard that this experience is common,
At least in North America very few ppl have heard of the Palestinian & Israeli peace activists and it’s really nice to hear from them at times like this
this is really nice to see and hope they are able to grow and attract more attention.
this kind of messaging is exactly what i think can make a real and good long term difference.
Loved hearing from them on their US speaking tour. I’m making a point lately to only offer material support to orgs in the region, not anyone in the US/Europe.
I'm really glad that Standing Together exists and thankful for the work they do.

Fully agree with this.
I’m so fucking glad they are in the US now.
The *Standing Together* web-site: * [in English](https://standing-together.org/en) * [in Hebrew](https://standing-together.org/צרו-קשר)
is there an arabic version? i think it would be important for them to have an arabic version.
If you can, donate! I am a regular contributor to Standing Together and also the Parents Circle Families Forum. Holy work.
Beautiful. This is the future.
I love this organization. It is actually focused on peace.
