ABSTRACT
The Israeli peace and solidarity movement serves as a key external support to Palestinian efforts to resist Israeli occupation, and it works by leveraging pressure and mobilizing its inf luence in relation to the Israeli government and Israeli society in general. This chapter analyses the role of Israeli peace and solidarity organizations in nonviolent direct action, and it highlights the challenges and dilemmas these groups face. It also provides insights into the actions that will need to be undertaken if Israeli society is to be addressed successfully in relation to ongoing conflict and violence.
