On episode 54, we are joined by representatives of major Palestinian civil society organizations Sahar Francis and Ahmed Abofoul to talk about current progress in bringing an investigation into Israel’s crimes to the International Criminal Court, even as Israel – and the US and Canada – have tried to stifle progress. Francis is the director of Addameer, the Prisoner’s support and Human Rights Association, and Abofoul is a legal researcher and advocacy officer at Al-Haq, a group that documents Israel’s human rights violations. Addameer and Al-Haq are among six Palestinian civil society groups that Israel’s defense minister Benny Gantz designated last fall as “terrorist” organizations – an attempt to disrupt and destroy the work of these groups and especially their gathering of evidence for the ICC investigation.
