Rabbi Menachem Froman (1945 – March 4th, 2013) was often called a maverick Jewish religious peacemaker. He was one of the founders of the Gush Emunim religious Zionist movement and a pioneer in dialogue with radical and moderate religious Muslims, including Abu Mazen, Yasser Arafat and the late Hamas leader Sheikh Yassin. His main work was to find solutions to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict based on understanding between the Islamic and Jewish faiths.
Rabbi Menachem Froman explains that the Israeli/Palestinian conflict is really an issue of East and West and therefore a reflection of one larger conflict of global concern.
