While Western leaders have near-universally backed Israel in the wake of Hamas' horrific attacks, a shocking number of people have expressed support for Hamas, levelling the same false accusations against Israel they usually do. One thing often said is that Israel is an "Apartheid State" and will compare Israel's requirement for self-defense to South Africa. Host Steven Shalowitz sits down with South African activist Olga Meshoe Washington to discuss her journey to becoming an advocate for the State of Israel, the history of Africa's relationship with Israel and Jews, and why calling Israel apartheid is a ridiculous accusation that trivializes her people's history.
