A withdrawal into oneself

An Israeli Arab activist is threatened with death by the Hamas because he advocates rapprochement between Jews and Palestinians. “They made videos about how I am a traitor and collaborator with the Jews. They say I kill babies. They say lots of things senseless”entrusts Yoseph Haddad. Despite the tensions, in a market in Ramia, the two communities continue to live together.
