Support our work: As Israel threatens to continue its assault on Gaza for “many months,“ we look at growing Israeli civil opposition to the war. This week, 18-year-old Israeli Tal Mitnick became the first conscientious objector since October 7. We speak with Aida Touma-Sliman, an Palestinian Arab member of the left-wing party Hadash who was suspended from the Knesset last month for criticizing Israel's assault. She was punished for a social media post she made condemning Israel's attack on al-Shifa Hospital, and decries the “extreme right-wing government“ and its suppression of critical voices in Israel.
