Israel: War on Gaza and War at Home
Channel: Ed Mays
Date: 2021-05-20

This panel of Jewish and Palestinian journalists addresses the war in Gaza, how it happened, and the likely outcome for both Israelis and Palestinians.  Also discussed is the domestic impact the war has had internally inside Israel, including the shocking bouts of vigilante terrorism against Israeli Palestinians.  As well as what that bodes for future relations between the two communities.

So far foreign nations and international bodies have been entirely absent and refused to weigh in in any significant way, which has only encouraged Israeli military assault.  The panel addresses the failure of the US and Pres. Biden in particular.

Panel:
*Lubna Masarwa, Middle East Eye bureau chief Israel-Palestine
*Shir Hever, Israeli journalist/economist, author of The Privatization of Israeli Security and The Political Economy of Israel's Occupation
*Richard Silverstein, publisher of the progressive Jewish blog Tikun Olam, contributor to Middle East Eye, Jacobin, and Al Jazeera

Thanks to Tikun Olam
Recorded 5/17/21
