On this episode of Perspectives, host Asima Silva welcomes Alan Shebaro, former Sergeant with the US 3rd Special Forces Group, who has just returned from a volunteer trip to the West Bank in Israeli-Occupied Palestine. He gives his honest account of the injustices visited upon the Palestinian people living under apartheid rule, segregated from nearby towns by IDF military check-points and subject to a two-tier justice system that overwhelmingly privileges the rights of illegal Israeli settlers to violently harass and subjugate them. This apartheid system results in the gradual annexation of the occupied territories and the cleansing of non-Israeli ethnic groups from the West Bank, which is to say nothing of Israel's eliminationist Gaza campaign that has made that territory unlivable for the foreseeable future.
