There Is A Military Solution? with Zak Witus, New Israel Fund

Orli Matlow sits down with Zak Witus, Director of Young Leadership and Education at the New Israel Fund, to talk about his activism, which recently caught the attention of the authorities at Ben Gurion Airport. They discuss the fight for equality and justice in the midwest and the West Bank, where Zak was assaulted by Israeli soldiers during a night raid.  Zak speaks about his friend, the late human rights activist Awdah Hathaleen, who was brutally murdered on camera by settler Yinon Levi, who still walks free. ​​To support Umm Al Khair, donate at RememberingAwdah.com or here.
