Gresham Hotel, O’Connell Street, Dublin 1, Sat 20 Feb, 14:00

Israeli historian and author, Illan Pappe, Palestinian novelist Ghada Kharmi and Jewish socialist and author, John Rose, will share their views on an alternative strategy to finally achieve peace between Israelis and Palestinians at a public meeting organised by the Irish Anti War Movement in February.

The public meeting at which these three articulate advocates of the “One-State” solution will speak is on Saturday February 20th at 2pm in the Gresham Hotel, O’Connell Street, Dublin

The horrific events in Gaza last year, which saw over 1,400 Palestinians killed, including more than 200 children, in a savage Israeli military assault, rightly shocked the world.

It provided a terrible reminder of the plight of the Palestinian people and the apparently endless conflict between Palestinians and the state of Israel.

A year on, despite a global public outcry, the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians has not moved one step closer to a peaceful resolution.

The Israeli siege of Gaza - preventing vital humanitarian and reconstruction aid reaching its suffering population - continues.
