Assaf Talgam, managing editor of the Israeli Communist Party newspaper Zo Haderekh, talks with People’s World reporter Taryn Fivek about what it’s like as a Communist journalist resisting the occupation and the assault on Gaza under wartime conditions and the intense repression of the Netanyahu government. Together with his colleagues at the Arab-language Al-Ittihad newspaper, they overcome the censorship of a right-wing state that is determined to keep the world in the dark about what’s really happening.
