"These Palestinians never sent terror to us. They are faces we know. No one can claim they are not people of peace," said Shai Dror, 60, a landscaper who co-launched the petition drive in this upscale suburb just off the Jerusalem-Tel Aviv motorway.

Forget the propaganda for a moment. Often it is too quickly forgotten in that conflict that there are Israelis and Palestinians who desperately want a fair, just and lasting peace.
