Global Research News Abandon the Battlefield - The Story of Two Israeli War Resisters (Refuseniks)

This week, we provide audio from a special presentation of two Israeli War resisters who were travelling across Canada shedding light on their bold
decision to refuse military service in protest of Israel’s occupation
of Palestine and its ongoing violence in Gaza.

Einat Gerlitz and Tal Mitnick are leading figures in a growing wave of
dissent among Israeli youth, challenging the brutal military
occupation and advocating for Palestinian liberation. Both of them
have paid the price for their stand, enduring time in Israeli military
prisons for their refusal to participate in what they call a violent
system that perpetuates apartheid and genocide. Their actions
have sparked a global conversation about the vital role of war
resisters in the fight for human rights and a free Palestine.

They are also examples of the call to others in military service during illegal wars to Abandon the Battlefield, a major activist call by the Centre for Research on Globalization. So this week, we thought we would give you the entire presentation by these two heroic individuals at the Hope Mennonite Church, in Winnipeg, Manitoba on March 20, 2025.

So on this week’s episode, we are putting the focus on the work we do along side numerous people attempting to speak the unspoken truth of war.

In the first half hour, we spend time talking to Yusuf Omar of Seen.tv. He is a former war correspondent working for CNN who came to understand the unique contributions that Palestinians can make in Gaza by telling their own stories with a cell phone camera, and at a time when Palestinian journalists are dying by the scores in order to communicate to the outside world. He is to present films by Bisan Owda and Ahmad Ghunaim to audiences across Canada and the United States in the coming week.
This interview is followed by one with Ramsey Zeid, a Palestinian-Canadian activist in Winnipeg, talking about aspects of the Genocide in Palestine not spoken about in mainstream media outlets, including the challenges and the rewards of activism.

Finally, two former guests, Canadian peace activists, Glenn Michalchuk and Tamara Lorincz, speak about some of the more persistent lies and persistent activism to turn the tide toward a more stable and just world.

This show is part of radio station CKUW’s Fundrive, encouraging listeners to contribute what they can to keep an island of truth-telling less isolated in an ocean of propaganda.
