Lobbyist group’s Middle East Policy associate discusses Palestinian-Israeli crisis

Share

Today on Radioactivity, we’ll look at the Israeli military attack on Gaza. And rocket fire from Gaza onto Israel. Rob Lorei speaks to Kate Gould who is the Legislative Associate for Middle East Policy for the Friends Committee on National Legislation (FCNL), a Quaker lobby which has the largest team of peace lobbyists in Washington, D.C. She is one of only a handful of registered lobbyists working to prevent war with Iran, and she lobbies on Israeli/Palestinian peace.
