In the 20 months since the war in Gaza began, Amit Halevy has been spat at, screamed at, and pelted with rocks and eggs in Israel's streets, all because she was calling for peace.

"We would sit in silence, just a bunch of women dressed in white, holding signs in Hebrew, Arabic and English saying: 'compassion', 'peace', 'nutritional security'," she told me.

"We thought: who argues with peace? But these demonstrations would get the same hatred as when we called to Stop the Occupation or Free Gaza. One guy screamed at us during a peace sit-in in Tel Aviv that he wished we would all be raped in Gaza, while we sat in silence holding signs saying 'love'".

I first met Amit in the early months of the war. The grandchild of Holocaust survivors, she described to me then how family discussions about what was happening in Gaza left her feeling angry and frustrated. She is convinced that Israel's actions amounted to "Nazification".

Now, she says, something in her family is shifting.
