As the world sweats on negotiations to prevent an Israeli land invasion of the Gaza Strip, one man with an extensive and intricate knowledge of the region is visiting Australia. Wadah Khanfar is the former director-general of Al Jazeera. He is in Sydney meeting politicians and delivering seminars as part of his role with his Sharq Forum, an independent think-tank developing long-term strategies for political development and social justice in the Middle East.
Regarded as one of the most powerful people in the world, Wadah Khanfar sat down to talk to World News Australia presenter Anton Enus.
