A joint statement of Israeli women's organizations
Against the war on Gaza
We women's organizations from a broad spectrum of political views demand an end to the bombing and other tools of death and call for the immediate start of deliberations for peace and stop the war. The dance of death and destruction must come to an end. We demand that war no longer be an option, or violence a strategy, or killing an alternative. The society we want is one in which every individual can lead a life of security, in personal, economic, and social sphere.
It is clear that the highest price is paid by women and other marginalized sections, geographic, economic, ethnic, social, and cultural, which now, as always, are excluded from the public eye and dominant discourse.
The time for women is now. We demand that words and actions be conducted in another language.
