Subject: Real Talks by 5th June: watch the new video, spread the word
Avaaz.org - The World in Action
Thank you! You're one of almost 30,000 people whose demand for Real Middle East
Talks Now was carried to last month's summits through ads in Israeli,
Palestinian and international newspapers - including on the front page of the
Financial Times, delivered specially to summit venues.
But leaders missed the chance, failing to start real talks. So we're taking
this campaign to the next level ratcheting up to a major international day of
action on June 5th the 40th anniversary of the 1967 war that began the
occupation of the West Bank and Gaza.
Can you help get us to 50,000 new voices for peace in the next 24
hours? It's simple and fun. First, watch our new 'Stop the Clash' video for a
fresh, empowering take on the wider conflict, and why taking this first step
toward Middle East peace matters:
www.avaaz.org/en/stop_the_clash
Then tell everyone you know about the video, so they can watch it and join the
campaign because let's face it, this is a demand which the vast majority
agree with!
The video takes on the wider global crisis: from New York to Baghdad, Madrid to
Beirut, talk is rising of a 'clash of civilizations' between the West and
Islam. According to the UN, the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is the clash's
driving symbol. But opinion polls show that most people around the world agree
the policy is the problem. We agree on peace in the Middle East - as do most
Israelis and Palestinians. If progress toward peace is made there, it will
spread.
This is not the world we want. But it's the world we'll end up with, unless the
peaceful majority us act now:

We want to hit every international summit and decision moment from now till
then with the same demand: Real talks now - no more excuses. We'll get the
message across in increasingly creative ways. There are meetings all through
March, up to the big Arab League summit. So take the next step watch the
video, and tell everyone you know about it.
We agree on what matters most. We all oppose war, tyranny, terror and the
killing of innocent civilians. We know these conflicts are caused not by some
inevitable culture clash, but by bad politics. The 'Stop the Clash' video is a
way to remind friends, family and colleagues of the big picture of all we share
and signing the Real Talks petition is a step every one of us can take. So
click above to see Avaaz's new "Stop the Clash" video, spread the word, and act
now...
With hope,
Paul, Galit, Fitri, Hannah, Ricken, Graziela, Jeremy, Lee-Sean, Milena and the
whole Avaaz team
