In Israel the draft is mandatory for young people between 18 and 27. I am full of admiration for the young Israelis of the Refuser Solidarity Network in this video who are refusing to serve. Their choice is the right one and I feel humbled. STOP ARMING ISRAEL
I've just come across an interesting Podcast site on Spotify. It's called Labour Left Podcast and I'm currently listening to a podcast called 'Making Trouble' with Lynne Segal. You might like it.
