They've arrested another pro-Palestinian journalist, this time in Switzerland. The Electronic Intifada's executive director Ali Abunimah has reportedly been detained by Swiss police in Zurich, after having been interrogated for an hour and released the previous day when entering the country. Abunimah, who is Palestinian-American, has played a leading role in exposing and critiquing the apartheid abuses of Israel for many years. Reading by Tim Foley.
Rosie Bultman discusses an archive of No Alibis by Elizabeth Robinson and Avery Gordon featuring Ali Abunimah from 2004, and analyzes Abunimah's current coverage of Palestine on The Electronic Intifada
Ali Abunimah discusses the odd relationship between U.S. policing and the Israeli government. He describes the way higher-ups at many American police departments are sent on all-expenses paid trips by the Israel lobby, where they learn counter-terrorism tactics from the Israeli military. This is framed as a way to keep U.S. cops on the cutting edge, but really has the effect of making them view their communities as insurgents that need to be suppressed. No wonder, then, that police in America have such problems with the people they are supposed to serve. On the other side, says Abunimah, the Israeli government is concerned that the Black Lives Matter movement could be dangerous for their interests, since it might help Americans to understand the plight of the Palestinians in Israel, who live under the threat of violence without repercussion from their occupiers. Discussed on the show: “Israel lobby sees Black Lives Matter as major strategic threat” (Electronic Intifada) “‘He’s Disabled,’ the Caregiver Screamed. ‘I’m With Her,’ Eyad Cried. The Cop Opened Fire Anyway” (Israel News | Haaretz.com) Deadly Exchange “Navigating Intersectional Landscapes” (The Reut Group) Ali Abunimah is co-founder of The Electronic Intifada and author of The Battle for Justice in Palestine.

A ceasefire has been reached in Gaza after Israel launched a wave of airstrikes that killed 34 Palestinians, including eight members of one family. Ali Abunimah of The Electronic Intifada discusses Israel's latest bombings, which come after more than one year of weekly, deadly Israeli attacks on non-violent Palestinian demonstrators. "The message we're getting from people in Gaza is that 'we're going to continue protesting because we have no choice -- what else can we do, stay home and die?'", Abunimah says. "So people are continuing, and I think the question that should be directed to all of us is: What are we doing to act in solidarity with them and amplify their voices, so this horrific siege and the impunity that Israel enjoys finally ends?" Guest: Ali Abuminah, co-founder of The Electronic Intifada and author of "The Battle for Justice in Palestine."

YouTube Podcast host Chuck Morse is joined by Dr. Charles Jacobs, Journalist, long-time social activist, founder of the American anti-Slavery Group and co-founder of CAMERA. Dr. Jacobs exposes the teaching of Hamas inspired anti-Israel propaganda in the public schools of Newton, Massachusetts.
Chuck Morse films a Newton School Committee meeting where Dr. David A. Fleishman, Superintendent of Newton Schools, is accused of allowing an anti-Semitic curriculum in the Newton schools. This video is long but worth watching as the people of Newton laid bare the anti-Israel agenda. Some real fireworks here.
Ali Abunimah is a Palestinan-American journalist, a co-founder of The Electronic Intifada, and the author of several important books on the Israel-Palestinian conflict, including his latest volume The Battle for Justice in Palestine, published by Haymarket Books. A leading proponent of the one-state solution, Abunimah is currently on a speaking tour of Australia. Alex Whisson spoke to Nick Everett from Friends of Palestine WA to discuss why Abunimah’s visa had been delayed. UPDATE: Abunimah’s visa was granted the day after this interview went to air. He then faced the additional challenge of standing up to the Sydney University Administration, which backed down after initially cancelling his first Australian speaking engagement.
Ali Abunimah is the guest on this week's edition of the podcast known as The Chauncey DeVega Show. He is an internationally known human rights activist and author whose work focuses on the struggle for the Palestinian peoples' full rights and freedom. Ali Abunimah is also the co-founder of the essential website Electronic Intifada. In this great conversation, Ali and Chauncey talk about many issues. They include the global colorline and human rights, the United States' militarized police, the relationship between Israel and America's police and military, the Israel lobby and American politics, the limited space in the corporate media for truth-telling, and how to maintain hope and positivity while doing social change work. Chauncey also talks about his recent essay on racial battle fatigue, colorblind white liberal racism, and McKinney, Texas's police thuggery against young black and brown children at a local pool.

On today's show, we're broadcasting the lecture from Ali Abunimah on the failure of a two-state solution, given to benefit for the Middle East Children's Alliance.
