Israeli Activist REVEALS What The Media REFUSES To Tell You About Israel

Watch the rest of the interview with Miko on Israel’s failings here: WATCH our interview with Mohammed Hisam on Palestine here!: Israeli-American activist Miko Peled explains what Israel is doing and why they’re doing it. He also explains some of his background and the missing context surrounding Israel and Palestine. Miko Peled is an author, writer, speaker, and human rights activist living in the United States. He is the author of “The General’s Son: Journey of an Israeli in Palestine“ and “Injustice: The Story of the Holy Land Foundation Five.“ His father was a high ranking Israeli general, his maternal grandfather was a signatory to Israeli independence, his niece was tragically killed in a suicide bombing and he’s a staunch advocate for a one state solution. He is considered by many to be one of the clearest voices calling for justice in Palestine, support of the Palestinian call for Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) and the creation of a single democracy with equal rights in all of historic Palestine. Educated in Jerusalem, Japan and the United States, Peled is also an accomplished professional martial artist. For 23 years, Peled ran a martial arts school that was dedicated to teaching leadership skills and non-violent conflict resolution through martial arts. Miko is also a contributor to several online publications (Mint Press, The Electronic Intifada, Democracy Now, Mondoweiss), , and produces The Miko Peled Podcast, all of which he dedicated to advocating for the creation of one democratic state with equal rights for Israelis and Palestinians. He travels regularly to Palestine where he speaks and works with the popular resistance, the BDS movement, and other justice groups. As a result, he has been arrested several times by the Israeli authorities for his activism.
