Combatants for Peace

Combatants for Peace:
A LIVE PRESENTATION by Palestinian and Israeli combatants
Nobel Peace Prize Nominee 2017 & 2018
Monday, February 10, 7:30pm
First Congregational Church
1985 Louis Road, Palo Alto

Hear an amazing presentation by Israeli and Palestinian former combatants!

There is another way!

In 2006, Israeli and Palestinian former combatants, people who had taken an active role in the conflict, laid down their weapons and established Combatants for Peace. The egalitarian, bi-national, grassroots organization was founded on the belief that the cycle of violence can only be broken when Israelis and Palestinians join forces. Combatants for Peace is the only organization, worldwide, in which former fighters on both sides of an active conflict have laid down their weapons, choosing to work together for peace and justice.

Hear two members of this organization speak in person - an Israeli and a Palestinian - both former combatants now part of Combatants for Peace.

"Violence begets separation, and separation begets more violence.
Combatants for Peace seeks a way out of the whirlpool of death...
God bless you. You [are] healers of the Holy Land."
