Tens of thousands of ultranationalist Israelis have marched through Occupied East Jerusalem on 'Flag Day', in what's being seen as the latest provocation against Palestinians.

Presenter: Kim Vinnell

Guests:

Mustafa Barghouti - Secretary General, Palestinian National Initiative.

Akiva Eldar - Author and Contributing Writer, Haaretz newspaper.
