An international scandal is growing after an Australian-Israeli man with
ties to Israel’s spy agency, the Mossad, died inside a maximum security
prison in Israel. For more than two years, the Israeli government
imposed a strict gag order on his 2010 death, but now the secret is
leaking out. Israel has called his death a suicide, but new information
could emerge now that the Australian Broadcasting Corporation has
revealed his name: Ben Zygier. We’re joined by Dan Yakir, chief legal
counsel for the Association for Civil Rights in Israel, which has led
the effort in Israel to uncover information about Prisoner X and has
successfully challenged a gag order on its role. We also speak to Antony
Loewenstein, an independent journalist, author and co-founder of
Independent Australian Jewish VoicesVideo
