Non-parliamentary speakers included playwright Yehoshua Sobol, Aida Touma-Sliman, editor of the Arab Al Ittihad daily and Feminist activist, Nazareth Mayor Ramez Jeraisy and Liran Gal of Peace Now, the youngest of the speakers. Virutally all speakers welcomed the upcoming UN recognition of Palestine by the United Nations and denounced Netanyahu's speech at the US Congress as having set up huge barriers and effectively ended the chances for negotiations. Also, many of the speeches included warnings of Netanyahu trying to break out of his predicament by starting a new war, with Iran, with speakers referring to the dire warnings made on this issue by Me'ir Dagan, the recently retired Head of the Mossad.

A grim foretast of the looming wars came within less then 24 hours with deadly fire of IDF snipers at unarmed Palestinan demonstrators approaching by the hundreds from Syria.
