Yehoshua attended an event in where they demanded that the government agree to a ceasefire which would provide the foundation for a solution that could be negotiated by saying: “We had a right to go to war. But things got complicated. … I believe that there is more than one course of action available.”
Two days later, Grossman’s 20-year-old son Uri, a Staff Sergeant in the 401st Armored Brigade, was killed in southern Lebanon when his tank was hit by an anti-tank missile shortly before the ceasefire came into effect. Grossman explained that the death of his son did not change his opposition to Israel’s policy towards the Palestinians. Although Grossman had carefully avoided writing about politics, in his stories, if not his journalism, the death of his son prompted him to deal with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in greater detail. This appeared in his 2008 book To The End of the Land.

While attending weekly demonstrations in Sheikh Jarrah in East Jerusalem against Jewish settlers taking over houses in Palestinian neighbourhoods, he was assaulted by police. When asked by a reporter for The Guardian about how a renowned writer could be beaten, he replied: “I don’t know if they know me at all.”
A few months after the death of his son, Grossman addressed a crowd of 100,000 Israelis who been gathered to commemorate an anniversary for the murder of Yitzhak Rabin in the year 1995.
