    This Month in Palestine - June
    Jul 7 2024

    June was the 9th month of the Israeli onslaught of Gaza, in this episode we briefly summarise the key events. Most notable is the new status quo emerging in Gaza, a status quo intended to exhaust its inhabitants and to cause maximum destruction to civilian infrastructure. Additionally, we saw tensions flare up along the Lebanese border, with all-out war looking increasingly likely unless a ceasefire is reached in the meantime, another topic of discussion in this episode.

  • Breaking the Gaza Siege - Freedom Flotilla ft. Rifat Odeh

    Breaking the Gaza Siege - Freedom Flotilla ft. Rifat Odeh
    May 20 2024
    Director of the documentary The Truth: Lost at Sea, and survivor of the Freedom Flotilla massacre, Rifat Odeh, takes us through his experience on the boat that attempted to break the siege and deliver much needed humanitarian aid to Gaza. We begin by asking the question why a humanitarian mission was necessary, before developing into the dark scenes that the Israeli military unfolded on the aid workers, as well as diving into the propaganda machine that attempted to save Israel's image. This comes during a crucial time where a new flotilla looks to leave for the same mission to Gaza in 2024.

    This Week in Palestine - 22.04.24-29.04.24
    Apr 30 2024
    As the international escalation between Iran and Israel begins to die down again for now, in this episode we shift our attention back to the reality on the ground in Gaza from the last week. In this time, we saw the uncovering of mass graves containing over 300 bodies, many of which with evidence of serious human rights abuses such as torture and mutilation. We also shortly turn our attention to the growing demonstrations on US college campuses demanding divestment from companies profiting off the genocide in Gaza.

    Are We on the Brink of War?
    Apr 24 2024
    The recent tit-for-tat missile attacks by Israel and Iran have led to the fear that a regional war may very well prevail soon. In this episode, we go through who the two sides are, what the possibility of war actually is, and what the effect thereof on Gaza but also more generally Palestine would be.

  • Iran Retaliates: What Has Happened?

    Iran Retaliates: What Has Happened?
    Apr 24 2024
    For two weeks the world watched anxiously to see how Iran would respond to the attack on their consulate in Damascus, Syria, at the hands of the State of Israel. On the night of the 13th of April, we got our answer. Hundreds of drones and missiles were fired at Israel from Iranian territory for the first time ever. But how did we get into this situation in the first place? In this episode, we break down the context and the Iranian operation itself, in what certainly will not be the end of hostilities between the two powers.

    Murdering foreign aid workers and bombing an Iranian diplomatic facility are only two of many despicable acts that Israel undertook this week to mark exactly six months of their ongoing genocide in Gaza. In this episode we take you through these stories, among others such as the significant use of AI in this genocide, the attempt to censor Al-Jazeera within the occupied territories, but also the increasing pressure at the ICJ on countries that are complicit in the genocide such as Germany.

    This Week in Palestine - 25.03.2024-01.04.2024
    Apr 1 2024
    Even during Ramadan and Easter, Israel persisted in its genocide in Gaza and wider war against Palestinians across their occupied homeland. But we did see international developments with a ceasefire resolution passing in the UN Security Council, as well as additional measures made by the ICJ in an attempt to force Israel to comply with international law. Join us for this short episode where we take a look at this and more!
