Today, Ali Abunimah joins Michael Spath, the director of the Indiana Center for Middle East Peace in conversation discussing current developments in Palestine. Israelisâ ongoing weekly protests against Netanyahuâs handling of the Covid-19 crisis ignore the brutal scene unfolding daily in the occupied West Bank. There have been at least 70 army raids over the last 2 weeks, including an Aug. 27 attack on the al-Fawwar refugee camp where a family was severely beaten and its money stolen.
