In 1978, their open letter to Prime Minister Menachem Begin struck a chord that mobilized hundreds of thousands of Israelis, pressed for the Camp David accords, and forced Israeli leaders to reckon with the human and moral costs of occupation and war.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJournalist and organizer Micah L. Sifry first encountered Peace Now as a college student, researched its rise while living on a kibbutz during Israel's 1982 Lebanon War, and has followed its trajectory ever since. Blending memoir, archival research, interviews with its founders, political history, and fresh reporting, he traces how an all-volunteer movement reshaped Israeli politics-and what its struggles reveal about the possibilities and limits of democratic activism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt a time when Israelis and Palestinians remain locked in cycles of violence, When Doves Try shows what it means to stand as a loyal opposition in the face of nationalist fervor, and why the lessons of Peace Now still matter today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 174\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.37 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 26, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47293754310905,"sku":"9798993263618","price":16.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/BXc3AsXDqO9798993263618_7f86e76c-aebe-45ea-9751-c4f5ec86cc27.webp?v=1769181231","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/when-doves-try-paperback-3","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
