"We’re organizing grassroots efforts in both Israel and Palestine to pressure leaders for a two state solution."

“Do you find more people wanting a two state solution in Palestine than Israel?”

“Nobody WANTS a two state solution on either side. But on both sides, over 60% of people are willing to accept a two state solution. The problem is— while 60% are willing to accept a compromise, only 30% of people think that a compromise is possible. And when one side thinks that the other side will never compromise, it reverts back to pure self-interest. And that’s a dangerous thing. So we’re trying to bridge that belief gap, and convince the 60% of people that are willing to compromise that compromise is indeed possible.”
