I have read a little bit of critcism of NSWAS from people who think that the community does not come up with solutions to the conflict, how do you respond to this?
We talk about “living with the conflict”, “conflict management”, sometimes “conflict transformation”. We don’t look at our work as “conflict resolution” because realistically, the conflict requires a political solution. NGOs working at a grass roots level can do much to generate change, but they cannot directly provide a solution to the conflict. In addition, a reconciliation between the two national groups in Israel (our constituency) depends upon the wider solution of the Israeli – Palestinian conflict.
