Ta'ayush
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ta'ayush (the name is Arabic and means "coexistence" or "life in common") is a grassroots organization, which was established in the fall of 2000, is a group of Arab and Jewish citizens of Israel.[1] According to two of their members, they "work against the occupation and against the discrimination done by the state to Palestinian Israelis, and fight against all kinds and forms of separation and segregation between Arabs and Jews and between Israelis and Palestinians, both in Israel and the Occupied Territories." [2] For example, they provide concrete material support (food, medical supplies, etc.) to Palestinians during Israeli army occupations.[3]
Gadi Algazy is the creator of this non-violent organisation.[citation needed]
