The West Bank has become akin to the Wild West

As Israel invades the occupied West Bank, I was interviewed by SBS News Australia about the ramifications:

Speaking to SBS News independent journalist Antony Loewenstein described the West Bank operations as “disturbing” and said the IDF is playing “whack-a-mole” by trying to root out resistance to the Israeli occupation in the West Bank.

“But the fact is that if you occupy people as Israel has done for over half a century, there will be resistance,” he said.

“Many Palestinians that I know who are seeing what’s happening to their brothers and sisters in Gaza, which for those who aren’t aware, geographically is pretty much just down the road from what’s happening in the West Bank are worried that similar things might happen to Gaza.”
