Palestinian factions call for rallies against Israel

With us there are people!

Haaretz also mentions a pizzeria in Tel Aviv, the Campanello Cafe Delicatessen, offering a 50 percent discount to Jewish and Arab soccer fans who dine together, and a joint feast prepared by Jewish and Arab restaurants in Acre.

Hummus Bar, near the coastal city of Netanya, said it wanted to promote peace in the region after an explosion of violence over the last few weeks.

The Temple Mount is one of the key sources of tensions between Israelis and Palestinians, as it is both the third-holiest site for Muslims and the holiest site for Jews.

“In these days, when the sane and moderate side is less accepted and heard, we made a decision to take the initiative and show everyone that Arabs and Jews can live in a different way”, the organizers of the latter event declared. And genuine excellent Arabic hummus! And great Jewish falafel! “And a free refill for every serving of hummus, whether you’re Arab, Jewish, Christian, Indian, etc.” the restaurant said in the post.

The advert was posted on October 13 and has already been “liked” by almost 6,500 people and shared 1,600 times.

Special bargain: 50% discount on hummus to a table where Arabs and Jews sit together.

A hummus restaurant in Israel is encouraging customers to break bread amid troubled times.

The kitchen is kosher, and therefore also halal, which means that the only thing that is stopping observant Jews and Muslims from eating together at Hummus Bar is the will to dine together on the hummus with stewed chickpeas and msabaha, which is warm chickpeas swimming in tahini.

The Quartet of Middle East peacemakers – US Secretary of State John Kerry, his Russian counterpart Sergey Lavrov, European Union foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini and United Nations chief Ban Ki-moon – were to hold talks on the escalating violence later Friday. Eight Israelis have died.

On Tuesday, another stabbing and a vehicle attack occurred in the occupied West Bank, wounding three Israelis. Both alleged attackers were shot dead.

A military spokeswoman said the stabbed soldier was a Bedouin tracker who had opened a gate to enable Palestinians to harvest their olive trees.
