The Elders’ visit casts a powerful moral clarity. Clearly, our destiny—Palestinians and Israelis—is to live together, as equals. Please call for boycotts, divestment, and sanctions now.

I would like to suggest that peace is not an end state, but the by-product of something else. What is that "something else?"
