Hat-tip, Phil Weiss.

Henochowicz is the young Jewish-American artist who lost an eye to an IDF tear-gas canister while protesting the continued building of the Apartheid Wall.

She is amazing. Especially when she sings that people need "open their eyes." And then she turns and looks at the camera with one of the lenses in her glasses deliberately clouded over so we don't see her own tragically emptied eye-socket. Actually, with or without those socket-obscuring glasses, Emily Henochowicz both looks and acts like one of the most beautiful young women in the world.
