#GivingTuesday is here! In a year that physically pushed us apart and cast light on deep divisions among us, we also saw a reason for hope: you. In a year as challenging as this, spreading hope might be the most valuable gift of all. #SeedsGivingHope @SeedsofPeace @Kids4Peace

Thank you @NitaLowey @JeffFortenberry & the House Appropriations Committee for just passing SFOPs & the game-changing Middle East Partnership for Peace Act! It’ll now go to floor vote, & we are one step closer to largest EVER investment in Israeli/Palestinian peacebuilding 🙏

New report from Beyond Conflict on #polarization reminds us that, despite the rhetoric the perceived partisan divide is wider than the real one. #Dialogue is key to bridge and re-humanize. @bobbordone @peaceplayers @Kids4Peace @IntListening beyondconflictint.org/americ…
This is why @Kids4Peace matters so much.
Israel-Palestine: The Alliance for Middle East Peace brings together 100 NGOs to promote 'people peace-building' in the Middle East.
On F24's Middle East Matters, @ALLMEP_usa's exec-dir @JohnLyndon_ explains to @SanamF24 the importance of reaching out to youth⤵

"We've never handed a worse set of circumstances to an emerging generation... If we don't disrupt the youth attitudes that we're seeing, the conflict will escalate— not resolve."
ALLMEP's @JohnLyndon_ discussed the Israeli-Palestinian generational divide w/ @SanamF24 today

Fascinating discussion on conflicts & peace processes with the @Kids4Peace young people visiting from Jerusalem. Just wish @mikenesbittni & I were welcoming them to a Stormont Assembly that was working for people.

Thank you @NitaLowey @JeffFortenberry @ChrisCoons @LindseyGrahamSC @timkaine @SenCoryGardner for your leadership in supporting the Israeli & Palestinian people and their work for peace.
And here's a video from our brave Israeli & Palestinian activists themselves – direct from Jerusalem. This fund would support teens like them, who are desperately trying to create a better future.
