the woman from the Amona photograph
By now pretty much everybody has seen the stunning photograph snapped by Israeli photographer Oded Balilty during the destruction of Amona last year. This photograph won Balilty a Pulitzer Prize. The photo is shocking in its contrast and shows the courage of a young woman standing strong (or at least trying to) against dozens of policemen.
Ynet has interviewed this young woman, Nili, and asked her what she thought of the award winning photograph. It is well worth your time to read it. She expresses her self very articulately and puts the whole thing into perspective..
