OneVoice Movement Surpasses Over Half A Million Israeli and Palestinian Signatories
As we gear up towards October 18th, our increased efforts on the ground have yielded an early surprise. Our goal of recruiting half a million Israeli and Palestinian citizens by the end of 2007 was met close to 4 months early.
Now we have over quarter million Israelis and over quarter million Palestinians that have subscribed to the Movement’s principles.
Most remarkable, a quarter million were reached in the last year, compared to the first quarter million that took us close to 5 years to recruit.
We now need to reach One Million Voices To End the Conflict.

Palestinian Education
Final high school exam grade results were released in the West Bank today. I could not get through for hours on calls to Jawal (Palestinian) cell phones. Every year this day lines get tied by parents anxious to learn of their childrens’ results. *********** This is usually the case in Gaza also. With Hamas having [...]
