The Olive Alliance
The Olive Alliance
“If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.”
– Mother Teresa
The sacred space of resolution is at the heart of this organization.
The Olive Alliance’s goal is pure, but its shelf life is finite. The only way through is to speak to one another. For a shift to occur, we must come together and join in our grief, our hopes, and our visions.
We support a bi-national state between the river and the sea for Israelis and Palestinians, Jews and Arabs, where life and resources are shared in a sustainable manner via technology. Both populations are home and have a right to be here. We aim to include various viewpoints but only with the mutual understanding of coexistence.
Who We Are
We are a group of U.S. citizens made up of lawyers, construction workers, students, artists, entrepreneurs, tech natives and a diverse group of other professionals who believe that a just peace between Palestine and Israel will reverberate throughout the world ushering in a new era of prosperity and enlightenment.
We reject extremism in all its forms. We believe the only way forward is through dialogue and points of meeting. We are willing to ask ourselves the tough questions and take responsibility for our actions.
We are a finite organization, meaning we intend to have an expiration date. We seek to find the alchemy that will open the hearts and minds of the most staunch supporters of the status quo. So that lasting peace can have a chance to take root.
What We Do
- We organize with like minded humans focused on pushing policy that leads to a just and peaceful resolution to the Israeli / Palestinian conflict.
- We raise funds for politicians who refuse to settle for the status quo. We support those that do not take money from special interests.
- We participate in action initiatives that culminate in thunderclap moments that bring to light the most divisive and/or overlooked issues to the forefront.
- We collaborate with like-minded organizations committed to peace and fostering an environment conducive to resolution.
