Swiss authorities have arrested and deported Ali Abunimah, the executive director of the radical anti-Israel website Electronic Intifada, after he arrived in the country to speak at a pro-Palestinian demonstration in Zurich.
Abunimah has a long history of radical activism. Most recently, he denied that Israeli women were raped during the Hamas terror attack of October 7, 2023, despite documentation of such assaults, in which most victims were killed.
