A Generational Shift Needed for Peace, Says Yesh Atid’s Moshe Tur-Paz

In an engaging video interview conducted by The Media Line’s Felice Friedson, MK Moshe Tur-Paz from Israel’s Yesh Atid party shares his comprehensive strategy for achieving lasting peace with Palestinians. Amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict in Gaza, Tur-Paz emphasizes the critical role of peace education in shifting mindsets from conflict to cooperation over a generation. According to him, “25 years at least” of dedicated effort is required to transition the collective consciousness from a “fighting zone” to a “peace zone.”

With a background that spans education and military service, Tur-Paz also tackles the complex issue of integrating the ultra-Orthodox, or Haredi, community into the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF). He argues for the necessity of this integration, citing the ultra-Orthodox community’s resistance yet highlighting successful models that accommodate religious practices within military frameworks. The urgency of this integration stems from the ultra-Orthodox community’s high growth rate and its implications for the IDF’s operational capacity.

The video interview on The Media Line’s website provides a dynamic platform for Tur-Paz to detail his insights into these pressing issues. Viewers are invited to watch the interview and read the full article for a deeper understanding of Tur-Paz’s approach to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the challenges of Haredi integration into the IDF, and the broader implications for Israel’s security and social harmony.
