Op 18 en 19 juni vindt er in Den Haag een conferentie plaats van de International Dialogues Foundation over Jeruzalem. Of ik daar op mijn weblog aandacht aan wilde besteden. Okee, hierbij. Ik ben niet zo’n aanhanger van die dialoog gedachte, typisch een ’tweetje’ (zie hier<\/a>), om te denken dat je wat oplost als je maar een stelletje Palestijnen en een stelletje Israeli’s bij elkaar zet om met elkaar te praten. Ik bedoel: dialoog is mooi, als je het hebt over gelijkwaardige partijen en je denkt dat een gesprek de misverstanden en de vooroordelen kunnen verminderen. Is wat mij betreft in de Palestina\/Isra\u00ebl niet het probleem, en dat mag nu wel eens een keertje doordringen. Het wordt tijd voor partijdigheid, voor laten zien waar je staat.
\n
\nNeemt niet weg dat de IDF (grapjassen zijn het – nooit aan gedacht met wie ze die afkorting delen?) een keur aan vooraanstaande lieden als sprekers hebben weten uit te nodigen, misschien juist wel omdat je je aan zo’n ‘dialoog’ geen buil kunt vallen. Dus voor wie ge\u00efnteresseerd is: hierbij het programma:<\/p>\n

Hereby, we would like to invite you to participate in the Conference on
\n‘Jerusalem: Coalitions for Justice and Peace’, which will be held at
\nChristus Triumfatorkerk on Juliana van Stolberglaan 154. The conference is
\norganised on 18 and 19 of June 2010 in The Hague in The Netherlands. We
\nwould appreciate your active participation in the discussion on the round
\n(square) table. Besides the speakers mentioned in the program we also would
\nlike the participation of experts and representatives of organisations. In
\nthese roundtables interventions are possible.<\/p>\n

As being in charge of the scenario I would like to hear from you if and on
\nwhich session you would prefer to participate on the discussions. You will
\nbe approached by one of the board members (Leila Jordens Cotran for the
\nlegal dimension discussion, Bram Rutgers for the religious dimension and
\nPeter Idenburg for the political dimension and the discussion on the
\ncoalitions).<\/p>\n

I would like to receive your reaction as soon as possible, because of the
\nlimitations of seats on the table.<\/p>\n

For further information please do not hesitate to contact International
\nDialogues Foundation at Idenburg.idf@xs4all.nl or by phone 0031 –
\n0703785528 and my mobile phone 0031 – 624369309.<\/p>\n

We are looking forward to meeting you at our conference.<\/p>\n

Sincerely yours,<\/p>\n

On behalf of International Dialogues Foundation Board Members and Team,<\/p>\n

\nProject secretary<\/p>\n
