  • One Year of Genocide: Diana Buttu on Israel’s Brutality and the Fight for Justice

    One Year of Genocide: Diana Buttu on Israel’s Brutality and the Fight for Justice
    Oct 11 2024
    Today’s episode was recorded just before the one-year anniversary of October 7th, the date marking the beginning of the most recent iteration of Israel’s genocidal campaign in Gaza. Unfortunately, we missed the release date, but we still felt it was crucial to share this conversation as events continue to unfold. Since the recording, Israel has not only continued its brutal assault on Gaza but has also intensified its aggression in Lebanon, with hundreds killed and over a million people displaced as Israel prepares for a ground invasion. In this episode, I speak with Diana Buttu, who offers a powerful analysis of Israel’s colonial expansionist project, its use of propaganda, and its deliberate targeting of Palestinian civilians. Buttu also discusses the international community's inaction, particularly the U.S.'s role in enabling Israel's violence, and reflects on the sense of isolation and hopelessness felt by many Palestinians. She provides a deep dive into the internal dynamics of Israeli society, which supports and justifies these actions while offering little accountability for atrocities committed. Despite the devastating realities, Diana shares her thoughts on the importance of global solidarity and the hope for justice in the future.

    In this powerful episode, we sit down with Tareq, Mondoweiss’s Gaza correspondent, as he reflects on one year of genocide in Gaza. Tareq shares his deeply personal journey, recounting the horrors of displacement, the loss of his home, and the reality of living and working as a journalist during a genocide. He opens up about the daily challenges he faced—navigating the destruction, the trauma of losing loved ones, and the courage it took to keep reporting amid bombings and humanitarian catastrophe. - - - - Support our work Help us continue our critical, independent coverage of events in Palestine, Israel, and related U.S. politics.

  • Israel and Iran: Unpacking Western Media Bias

    Israel and Iran: Unpacking Western Media Bias
    Oct 4 2024
    In the past few weeks, Israel has bombed Lebanon, assassinated Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Hezbollah, launched a ground invasion, and displaced over a million people. Health care workers are warning of an 'apocalyptic' situation, with many now sleeping on the streets of Beirut. More than 1,300 have been killed, including at least one Lebanese American citizen. Meanwhile, Israel continues to commit genocide in Gaza and carry out military invasions in the occupied West Bank. On Tuesday, Iran launched over 100 missiles at Israel, targeting military sites in retaliation for Israel’s killings of Hezbollah and Hamas leaders. We're joined by Assal Raad. Assal specializes in research and writing on Iran policy and U.S.-Iran relations. Her work has appeared in Newsweek, The National Interest, The Independent, Foreign Policy, and more. She’s been a commentator on BBC World, Al Jazeera, NPR, and others. She holds a PhD in Middle Eastern History from the University of California, Irvine, and is the author of The State of Resistance: Politics, Culture, and Identity in Modern Iran. - - - - - Support our work Help us continue our critical, independent coverage of events in Palestine, Israel, and related U.S. politics.
