Becker, the West Coast Coordinator for the ANSWER Coalition, has travelled to the Middle East many times. He spoke about the history of Palestine, how the Palestinians were driven off their land illegally by Israel wiith the backing of the US, the goals of the US and Israel, and the current brutal invasion of Gaza.
He has a huge command of the facts and eloquently details the history and the imperialist motives of the US that fuel the current crisis.
