The devastating war in Gaza is expanding, with U.S. attacks on Yemen, increasing fighting between Israel and Hezbollah, and the growing danger of war between the U.S. and Iran.
The Biden administration refuses to restrain Israel, and the Netanyahu government appears intent on continuing to inflict death and destruction on Gaza, where the population is trapped in ruined cities and faces bombing and starvation.
The webinar panelists are prominent peace activists with knowledge of many aspects of the conflict. Their commentary and discussion will address possible paths toward ending the hostilities and securing a just and lasting peace. Please join us for an informative program where independent voices will speak for peace.
