The core message of the book is the emphasis on the importance of establishing transnational networks of solidarity and activism.

The problems of organizing in a politically divided context, and lack of international support, as well as the ruthlessness of the Israeli response meant however that momentum was lost. The March also raised many questions about how nonviolent methods could work when faced with serious military force.
