‘Gaza will haunt Israel for generations’ – Mika Almog, granddaughter of former President Shimon Peres

On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Mika Almog, content director of the It’s Time Coalition and granddaughter of late Israeli President Shimon Peres. She discusses how the It’s Time Coalition has been working to promote the voices of the Israeli peace camp against the Gaza genocide, the polls showing the overwhelming majority of Israelis expressing genocidal sentiment towards Palestinians, why Israel’s concept of ‘total victory’ in Gaza is ‘childish’ and unrealistic, why Israel has still not recovered from the assassination of former PM Yitzhak Rabin, the elimination of discussion about a political peace process in Israel, US President Donald Trump tipping Tony Blair to be part of the leadership of the Gaza Peace Plan, what her message would be to Israelis who want a genocidal ‘total victory’, whether Benjamin Netanyahu will use a war with Iran and potentially use Israel’s nuclear weapons to evade elections, and much more.
