Editor’s note:

If you have ever wanted to learn about the question of Palestine/Israel and did not know where to begin or thought it much too complicated to understand, this 3-part video presented by Anna Baltzer gives an excellent and empathic account of not only Israel’s occupation, but also the historical background to the tragic Palestinian narrative that has been buried under Zionist spin with Western collusion since the creation of Israel. It will soon become clear that the conflict is actually an audacious colonial takeover aimed at permanently dispossessing Palestinians of their land and denying their history, identity and heritage by any means whatsoever to achieve the Zionist goal of an exclusively Jewish state. Anna Baltzer, who is herself Jewish, brings us back to the basic principles of right and wrong regardless of our ethnic backgrounds and/or religious and political views. It is a very powerful presentation not least because Anna begins from her own initial ignorance of the issues and takes us through her journey of discovery that led her to speak out in defence of the long-shunned Palestinians whose very existence today in Palestine hangs by a thread.
