An ad by the Peace Partnership organizations in the newspaper Haaretz at the start of the war: This war, too, will not bring us security!

We, the Peace Partnership organizations, call for an immediate end to the war. This is a war of choice that endangers us all. The government is choosing, again and again, a dangerous endless war that leads to loss of life, destruction, and pain—with no future and no political solutions.

Only eight months ago, it was declared that the “Iranian threat” had been eliminated for generations—they lied to us then, and they are lying to us now. This attack, and the crimes against Palestinians that continue under its cover, will not bring security.

In Israel, Iran, Lebanon, and Palestine, there are frightened parents and children who simply want to live.

Only a shared struggle for a political arrangement and a just peace based on the rights of all peoples can bring real security to everyone in the region.
