Hi all,
tl;dr If you have questions for a (leftist but attempting to be fair-minded) local in Jerusalem about the current situation in Israel or the West Bank, please ask them below.
It's been quite a while since I've done this - and I don't know if there is any desire - but I'll have some free time in a few hours, and I'd be happy to answer any questions outsiders might have about the local vibe around Jerusalem about the current political situation and/or the siege on Gaza and the West Bank. I wanted to do this because I think the international media isn't doing a great job explaining the political situation here. (For example, the big protests going on right now aren't really centrally about the genocide in Gaza, although there are certainly anti-war contingents within the broader movement.)
I am happy to answer or pass along questions about Jerusalem (East or West), Israel, or the West Bank.
I can answer questions about the opinions of Israelis of various political stances on various issues with related to Gaza, but I no longer have any living contacts in Gaza, so for an understanding of what's going on on the ground there, you can (*and should*) look elsewhere for those very important voices.
