This is the second of two points of view on the question of Israeli apartheid, as expressed at anIsraeli Apartheid Week event at Ryerson University in Toronto, Feb '08. I agree with this gentleman's point of view. Jews have bad guys and good guys, like everybody else. In Israel, from the beginning, the bad guys have been running the show, for the benefit of the United States, and at the expense of the Palestinian people. I am an anti-Zionist, secular left-wing Jew. And proud of it.

President Carter has frequently reiterated the point that his "use of 'apartheid' does not apply to circumstances within Israel."[102] Regarding the title of his book Carter has said:"It's not Israel. The book has nothing to do with what's going on inside Israel which is a wonderful democracy, you know, where everyone has guaranteed equal rights and where, under the law, , Arabs and Jews who are Israelis have the same privileges about Israel.0

I am an American Catholic with a secular leaning. I must say, I am replenished after watching this video. People like this man here give me hope for the future of the world. This is no zionist, but a true Jew who lives the word of God (whether or not he believes in the religion) as a function in his belief of the moral duty of lobbying for the dignity of others. That is a person I can look up to, and who I admire for their courage.From America, to whoever you are in this video...thank you

the guy you're interviewing is from Gaza. Hum is his nickname, he's my best friend. And I was the annoying guy beside you trying to take pictures of you two conducting the interview and flashing that white light on his face. :)

There are indeed good guys, I agree.One very good guy is brilliant Israeli-Canadian animator Jonathan Amitay -- see his jonnyamitay on Youtube --he also animated my Testosterone song on this site.
