Jewish pro-Palestinian activism

Jewish support for the rights of Palestinians has existed since before the creation of the State of Israel. Jewish support for Palestinian rights or an independent Palestinian state has often come from Jewish anti-Zionists and Jewish leftists, many of whom support a one-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Some Orthodox Jews are also supportive of Palestinians, including Haredi groups such as Neturei Karta, who oppose Zionism for religious reasons. Liberal Zionist denominations of Judaism such as the Union for Reform Judaism are supportive of the existence of an independent Palestinian state in the context of a two-state solution. Jewish support for Palestinian causes is stronger in the diaspora compared to among Israeli Jews. Among American Jews, there is a generational divide, with younger Jews expressing significantly more sympathy with Palestinian causes compared to older generations. Jewish supporters of Palestinians face accusations from Zionists of being self-hating Jews, while pro-Palestinian Jews themselves often articulate their advocacy as an expression of their Judaism or Jewish values.
