On Sunday, February 9th, Israeli police raided both branches of the East Jerusalem Educational Bookstore and arrested its owners, Mahmoud and Ahmed Muna. They were released on bail after two days in jail, but are banned from entering their stores for the next two weeks. During this difficult time, Mahmoud graciously agreed to talk with me about his experience.
To help with the legal costs Mahmoud and his family have incurred as a result of the raid, and the security they now need because of right-wing harassment, they have launched a GoFundMe Campaign.
Because of the importance of disseminating Mahmoud’s story, and his need for financial support, I’m making this video available to free as well as paid subscribers.
