On 12 June, the Alternative Information Center (AIC) spoke to Michael Warschawski, longtime Israeli political observer and analyst, as well as co-founder of the AIC, about understanding binationalism in both an Israeli and Palestinian context, against the backdrop of 40 years of occupation. We spoke to him about the Israeli/Palestinian peace movement in the light of the larger struggle against globalization and neo-colonialism, as well as discuss some issues regarding the future of the peace movement in Israel, including one of its more controversial figures, Tali Fahima.

This week marks the 40th anniversary of the Six Day War of June 1967, which resulted in Israel’s occupation of the West Bank, Gaza Strip and Golan Heights. As time has passed and the occupation has become an increasingly permanent reality, the question remains as to why peace has continued to be unattainable for Israel. Many claim that even the June 1967 War was a direct consequence of Israel’s inability or unwillingness to accept the comprises that peace requires.
On Monday, the 4th of June, 2007, The Alternative Information Center spoke with long-time Israeli peace activist Uri Avnery at his home in Tel Aviv. Mr. Avnery, who was born in Germany in 1923 and moved to Mandate Palestine at the age of ten, is an Israeli journalist and former Knesset member.
