Deep dives

Hope for a Peace Movement among Palestinians

Despite the dire conditions in Gaza, there is hope for a peace movement among Palestinians. The current situation, marked by displacement, limited access to basic amenities like water and electricity, and high levels of poverty, is not working for Palestinians. Countries like Egypt and Jordan, which have made peace with Israel, enjoy more normal conditions and greater economic and social development. Palestinians can benefit from economic and social progress by reaching a peaceful coexistence with Israel, which would improve their lives and offer a viable solution to the current hardships.
