Naomi Chazan has had a long career on the left of Israeli politics, being elected to the Knesset on the Meretz list in 1992. She is also a distinguished academic, having specialised in African studies. She has been regularly targeted by the Israeli right and right-wing Australian Zionists for all manner of ‘unpatriotic’ activities. The neo-fascist organisation Im Tirzu doctored a photo of her with devils’ horns. In fact, she prefers chocolate.
