Who we are
JNews is an independent source of analysis, opinion, information and news on Israel and Palestine
What we do
JNews provides the British media and the public at large with up-to-date, accurate news, as well as features, commentary and analysis by leading experts, some of which is specially commissioned by JNews.
JNews draws its material from a wide variety of sources and lays special emphasis on Israeli and Palestinian non-governmental outlets/agencies.
JNews offers a unique database of prominent experts from the UK, Israel and Palestine who can participate in media and public discussion.
Our aims and values
JNews promotes understanding and stimulates critical debate about Israel and Palestine among British Jews and the broader public as a contribution to promoting peace with justice for all in the region.
JNews believes that disseminating a range of viewpoints broader than that offered by most Jewish and Israeli organizations will benefit Palestinians and Israelis.
JNews supports the human rights of both Israelis and Palestinians and believes the two are intertwined.
JNews believes in the application of the universal principles of social justice and human rights as the path to a just and comprehensive solution to the conflict.
