Why are these captive Israelis different from all others?

July 09, 2015

Israel lifted a 9-month-old gag order on the case of two Israelis who crossed into the Gaza Strip and were taken by Hamas. One of the, Avraham Mengistu, was an Ehtiopian Israeli. The other, who is still unnamed, is a Beduin. On today’s episode, we talk about at the strategic implication of the missing Israeli with INSS scholar Kobi Michael. Then, we discuss the implications for the Ethiopian community with reporter Ben Hartman, and examine at the use of gag orders with +972 magazine’s Michael Schaeffer Omer-Man.
