Justice for Palestinians (Leamington Spa) is organising a meeting on 2 October entitled
Pathways to Peace: Ending the Genocide and Creating a Just Peace – What Can We Do?
41,000 Palestinians killed in Gaza and now the biggest Israeli assault on the Occupied West Bank since 2000.
Are you incensed by this mounting deathtoll, wanton destruction and apparent Israeli impunity from all international court orders?
Do you ever feel helpless and frustrated by the crocodile tears / total lack of effective action being taken by the UK and other western governments?
Do you want to know what you can do to bring about true change faster and more effectively?
If so, sign up for Pathways to Peace where you can find out more about what is planned nationally, and about what each of us can do to help end the genocide and create a just peace.

This series of events from Justice for Palestinians (Leamington Spa), has attracted top speakers on Gaza, Palestine and Israel. They are all experts in their fields, from history, to politics, to diplomacy, aid , medicine, the law, and beyond. They will share their analyses of the issues and their vision for a sustainable peace in Palestine /Israel and suggestions for practical actions you can take to help achieve this.
In this second session you will hear from three eminent speakers united by a burning passion for dignity and justice for the Palestinian people.
As leaders in the fight against injustice, our speakers will outline ongoing nationwide action plans, and what we can each do in order to bring pressure to bear in our efforts to secure a fair and lasting peace in Israel/Palestine. There will then be a full and free discussion between them, and with you, the attendees in order to explore thoughts, comments and ideas. By the end of the evening we will know more about what is planned nationally, and about what each of us can do to help the desperate plight of the beleaguered people of Palestine.
We hope you will attend live, but the event will also be live-streamed free on Zoom. You can choose your preference when you register. Please note that Zoom registration will close at 5pm on 1st October. We will send you the Zoom link that evening.
To help defray costs, we are asking for £5 per person for physical attendees, with any balance going to support the work of MAP. If you wish to make a donation to MAP, you can do so via their website https://www.map.org.uk/.
