Israelis Meet With Abbas Ahead Of Paris Peace Conference

By Eli Safran and Ibrahim Bushnak. Ramallah, West Bank, Palestine - Robi Damelin, an Israeli bereaved mother whose son – an IDF officer - was killed by a Palestinian sniper during the Second Intifada, gave to the Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen) a watch bearing the flags of Israel and Palestine, and the word "Peace" in Hebrew, Arabic and English. That was at the climax of a meeting which President Abbas held with more than a hundred Israeli activists who came to the Presidential Compound in Ramallah. Robi Damelin and the other Israeli activists expressed appreciation for what Abbas said to them: "I do not believe in violence and terror. Despite all the difficulties that we face under occupation, we will not turn to other, improper means. We oppose such means and struggle against them. We are against violence and terror, anywhere in the world."

There were multiple protests in Washington, DC in various locations. Outside the White House groups protested Israeli occupation in Palestinian territory as well as U.S. foreign aid to Israel as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met with President Obama.
