Quoted by Yediot Ahronot, Peace Now said “This is a substantial tender for construction outside the Green Line that contradicts Israel’s commitment to freeze construction in settlements.”

According to the movement’s website, Peace Now is the largest extra-parliamentary movement in Israel, the countrys oldest peace movement, and the only peace group to have a broad public base. The movement was founded in 1978 during the Israeli-Egyptian peace talks.
