CKUT Radio: Birthright Israel to the Struggle Against Occupation

--------------------

A speech from Aaron Lakoff a member of the International Solidarity Movement and a journalist with CKUT community radio in Montreal. This presentation was given in Montreal, at a panel organized by Solidarity for Palestinian Human Rights (SPHR.org), shortly after Aaron returned from working for 2 months in the Israeli occupied West Bank, with the International Solidarity Movement (ISM). Aaron originally travelled to Palestine, as part of a "Birthright Israel" trip, with the intention of going to work with Palestinians struggle against Israeli occupation.

This presentation specifically focuses on the realities on the ground in occupied Palestine, in the context of the reemergence of "negotiations" between the Israeli state and the Palestinian Authority, specifically addressing the ongoing construction of Israel's Apartheid Wall and ongoing "Settlement" construction throughout Palestinian territory.
