We began the process today of mapping the politics and power of the forces we will find ourselves in partnership and relationship with and/or in opposition to. A question for this weekend is: How will we (or will we) relate to and engage with the following forces as they exist in different regions?

Please note that we recognize this is an oversimplification, we use the catagories to the extent that they are helpful as a basic strategy development tool.

• Jewish “grassroots” – politically unaffiliated or undecided
• Liberal Zionist organization or collaborations
• Arab and Palestinian anti-Zionist organizations
• Palestine solidarity organizations
• Domestic grassroots/mass based groups
• Anti-imperialist/anti-war/peace orgs
• labor and churches/temples/mosques
