The 'Jews and Arabs Refuse to Be Enemies' meme originated from a viral social media campaign launched in July 2014 by Sulome Anderson and her boyfriend. The campaign used the hashtag #JewsAndArabsRefuseToBeEnemies to promote peace and coexistence during the height of the Israel-Gaza conflict. The most iconic image features a Jewish woman and an Arab man kissing, representing the human connection that transcends political and religious divides. While it began as a serious call for peace, internet users have since adapted the template both to highlight genuine shared interests and to create ironic jokes about two unlikely groups coming together over a common, often trivial, cause.
