Elon Perry presents a unique perspective on this complex subject, having been a journalist covering the Israeli-Palestinian conflict for 25 years, and having served as a combat soldier in an elite commando unit of the Israeli Defense Forces. Elon will present testimonies from Palestinians whom he interviewed as a journalist in the Gaza Strip, in which they describe their fear of the Hamas leadership and their longing to live under Israeli rule, which has improved their lives and provided them with a livelihood.
