Joel Burnie

Joel is Executive Director at AIJAC, which stands for the Australia Israel & Jewish Affars Committee. AIJAC represents the interests of the Australian Jewish community to government, politicians, media and other community groups and organisations through research, commentary and analysis. We recorded this episode on Sunday the 15th of October just over a week ago.

Alternate View

We are working hard to arrange to air an episode next week to share the views of APAN, the equivalent peak body representing Palestinian interests in Australia. 

Content Warning

This episode deals with some troubling themes around the current conflict in Israel and the Palestinian Territories as well as some fairly graphic descriptions of acts of violence perpetrated against civilians and their families. This one is not suitable for kids.
