Gideon Levy is an award-winning and internationally acclaimed Israeli journalist. He has been reporting from the occupied territories for the Israeli newspaper, Ha'aretz, for over 20 years.
Levy’s work combines piercing political analysis with a journalist's drive to tell the stories of those suffering under the Israeli occupation. Levy humanises the victims of war, to tell us their names, their birthdays and what they ate for breakfast. Yet Levy does not speak primarily to, or for Palestinians. His aim is to hold a mirror up to Israeli society, asking Israelis to face up to the everyday brutality of the occupation and to ensure that neither Israelis nor their international supporters can ever say "we didn't know".
