An article is presented that reports on gay activism in Israel and Palestine and the roles of visibility and nationalism in it. The article discusses issues of citizenship for Palestinian activists and how this activism relates to broader issues including the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, social change, and minority identity. Information is also provided on movements for civil rights in relation to political violence and terrorism, lesbian-gay-bisexual-transgender (LGBT) victimization, and the issue of "coming out" in sexual and national identity.
