A prominent debate series in Toronto, Canada, has drawn outrage for its plan to host four former senior Israeli lawmakers in a discussion about the two-state solution for Israel and Palestine.
No Palestinian debaters have been included or invited.
The Munk Debates is set to livestream the debates on Wednesday evening.
It's scheduled to feature former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and former Israeli justice and foreign minister, Tzipi Livni, arguing in favour of a Palestinian state, and former Israeli ambassador to the US, Michael Oren, along with former Israeli justice and interior minister, Ayelet Shaked, arguing against it.
The debates only take place twice a year, usually to a crowd of thousands. In this case, the official site appears to only be selling livestream tickets to paid Munk Debates members, rather than the general public.
