Quite a lengthy read but worth it to get up to speed on what is happening inside Israel from an outsiders perspective.

I did appreciate the hope for peaceful resolution rather than the rhetoric for more war and more killing.

Much of what we have been fighting for will become ever more relevant, with more people locally and globally willing to recognize that the system we live under is unjust, unsustainable, and offers none of us real security. We must double down on our commitment to promoting a peaceful political process

A QUICK SUMMARY FROM WIKIPEDIA FOR ANYONE WONDERING (you can read more in the Wikipedia link below)

+972 Magazine is a left-wing news and opinion webzine, established in August 2010 by a group of four Israeli writers in Tel Aviv. +972 was founded in August 2010 by Lisa Goldman, Ami Kaufman, Dimi Reider, and Noam Sheizaf, four working journalists in Tel Aviv.

"Born in the summer of 2010 as an umbrella outfit for a group of (mostly) pre-existing blogs. ... The site is now an online home for more than a dozen writers, a mix of Israelis, binational American- and Canadian-Israelis, and two Palestinians, all of whom occupy, if you'll forgive the term, space on the spectrum of the left."
