Israel Plants Trees Over Its Ethnic Cleansing With Ali Abunimah & Ariel Gold

(Patreon-only interview with Gabor Mate https://www.patreon.com/posts/61785859) What better way to cover up ethnic cleansing than by literally planting trees over it? The Jewish National Fund, a non-profit founded in 1901 is doing just that through its afforestation projects. The latest one is on land used by Bedouin Palestinian communities for agriculture in Southern Israel. Ali Abunimah, of Electronic Intifada talks about Israel's latest assaults on Palestine and Palestinians and Ariel Gold, of CODEPINK talks about what her organization is doing about it. Ali Abunimah is director of The Electronic Intifada, an independent nonprofit publication focusing on Palestine. He is the author of "One Country, A Bold Proposal to End the Israeli-Palestinian Impasse" and "The Battle for Justice in Palestine." Ariel Gold is the national co-director of CODEPINK, a women-led grassroots organization working to end U.S. wars and militarism, support peace and human rights initiatives, and redirect our tax dollars into healthcare, education, green jobs and other life-affirming programs. Before being banned from entering Israel in June 2018, Ariel used to travel to the West Bank one to two times per year to work with Palestinian individuals and organizations on the ground in their struggle for freedom and justice.
