Sayfollah Musallet, a US citizen, was killed by Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank on July 11 — days before his 21st birthday. His death is one of nearly 1,000 killings involving settlers this year, and his American citizenship has helped draw rare calls for a US investigation. Could this case shift how Washington responds to West Bank settler violence?

Hello, I'm Eric LeMay, a host on the New Books Network. Today I speak with Linda Quiquivix, author of the new book Palestine 1492: A Report Back (Wild Ox Books, 2024). This is a book that so many of us need right now, and by "right now," I mean that I am recording this in July of 2025, when Palestinians in Gaza are on the verge of mass starvation as a result of a manufactured and illegal famine imposed by the Israeli army. Some 2.2 million people are experiencing "acute food insecurity," to use the United Nation's official phrasing for people being illegally deprived of humanitarian aid and forced to starve to death. Right now, we are witnessing horror on a mass scale, made all the more horrible because this is wholly preventable. Right now, we need voices who can help us to understand why this is happening, how it is we got here, and what we might do in response. Quiquivix offers us such a voice. In Palestine 1492, she undertakes a rich and wide-ranging analysis to show us how such colonial violence emerged and how we might resist it. In fact, Quiquivix goes further, sharing with us a political vision that strive toward peace, equality, and mutual acceptance of one another across our differences. A world, in short, without the violence done through and to uphold borders. I'm grateful to share with you this conversation with Linda Quiquivix. Learn more about your ad choices.

Gregg Carlstrom, Middle East Correspondent with The Economist, on the latest in Gaza as Israel faces calls from over two dozen Western States to negotiate a ceasefire. Antoine Renard, World Food Programme Country Director for Palestine, describes the humanitarian situation in Gaza as the UN agency calls for an immediate ceasefire.

Thảm họa nhân đạo ở Gaza vẫn tiếp diễn. Giới chức y tế Gaza cho biết hơn 59.000 người Palestine đã thiệt mạn,g kể từ ngày 7 tháng 10 và tình trạng khan hiếm lương thực đang dần chuyển thành nạn đói. Trong bối cảnh lực lượng quân sự Israel tiến sâu hơn vào trung tâm Gaza và các tuyến đường viện trợ vẫn bị chặn hoặc bị tấn công, cộng đồng quốc tế một lần nữa kêu gọi ngừng bắn. Nhưng trên thực tế, nạn đói đang lan rộng nhanh hơn cả cứu trợ.

À Gaza, un hôpital affirme que 21 enfants sont morts de malnutrition et de faim au cours des 72 dernières heures. Mais dans l'enclave palestinienne, la famine ne tue pas seulement à petit feu : les distributions alimentaires sont régulièrement prises pour cible. Selon l'ONU, l'armée israélienne aurait tué plus de 1 000 personnes ces deux derniers mois alors qu'elles tentaient d'accéder à l'aide humanitaire. Pourquoi ces distributions tournent-elles au massacre ? On pose la question à Patrick Sauce, chef du service international de BFMTV.

(July 21,2025)Michael Monks joins Bill for Handel on the News. ICE chief says he will continue to allow agents to wear masks during arrest raids. Nearly 200 people killed seeking aid in Gaza on Sunday, Palestinian officials say. Number missing in Texas floods July 4 drops to 3 as officials cut list.

On July 17, as The Hague Group, a coalition of nations committed to diplomatic and legal actions to end the genocide in Palestine, held an emergency summit in Bogota, Colombia, civil society groups also met to launch the Friends of The Hague Group (FoTHG). The FoTHG was convened by Palestinian organizations and joined by major international movements to support and expand The Hague Group, but also to challenge it to place Palestinian demands at the forefront and to take strong actions. Clearing the FOG speaks with Jacqueline Luqman of the Black Alliance for Peace, a member of the FoTHG, about the launch, what US activists can learn from collaborating with other social movements, and why it is a critical time to organize new multilateral anti-imperialist and anti-colonialist structures.

Latitude Adjustment Podcast is back, after a 20-month hiatus!  As always, you can support our work on Patreon with one click! Where have I been? Well, I'll be piecing that together for you over the next three episodes, but in short, after nearly 12 years of nonstop international travel and work I needed to take a pause and return to the US for about a year and a half, just to have a little more financial and locational stability in my life. During that time I spent a couple of years as a public high school teacher in an underserved community Houston, Texas. Not an experience that I enjoyed, but an experience that got me reconnected to many of the social, economic, and political challenges facing immigrant and minority communities in a state, and a country, that treats them with increasing contempt and hostility. More recently I returned to the West Bank, in June, for the first time since completing my graduate research there in 2008. During my time there I was arrested by Israeli occupation police who then hooded, tortured, and attempted to interrogate me, after I had been filming the march of illegal Israeli settlers through the old town of Hebron. I'll get into that ordeal in more detail in other episodes, but you can also find videos of my arrest as well as an interview that I did on Breaking Points at my new Instagram account @_mad_maddox and at the link in my bio there. ... Dr. Mohammed Mustafa, or Dr. Mo as he's affectionately known, is an English-Australian emergency physician trainee, humanitarian, and former international athlete of Palestinian heritage. Dr. Mo, also known by his social media handle “Beast from the Middle East”, is the first Palestinian to represent the United Kingdom in international rugby, having also won European titles in jiu-jitsu.  Born into a Palestinian refugee family, Dr Mo pursued medical training across Britain and Australia, driven by a profound commitment to human rights and the belief that healthcare is a fundamental right. His upbringing, shaped by resilience and displacement, has fuelled his career at the intersection of frontline healthcare and global humanitarian advocacy. In 2024 and 2025, Dr Mo served in Gaza's Nasser and European hospitals, with RAHMA Worldwide providing critical emergency care amid escalating violence. His commitment to frontline care drew him back to Gaza once again, in March of this year with the Palestinian, Australian, and New Zealand Medical Association team, arriving just as a fragile ceasefire collapsed. His raw, live reporting from inside emergency departments brought the devastation of Israel's unrelenting genocide against the Palestinian people to millions worldwide. In addition to his work as a practicing physician, his current humanitarian efforts are  focused on bringing a new, fully equipped children's hospital to Gaza.

This episode of Habibi House features Dr. Rudolph “Butch” Ware — historian, author, and one of the most important living scholars of Islam, Black liberation, and decolonial thought. A professor of history at UC Santa Barbara, Ware sits down with us to unpack the stories that empire tried to bury: stories of Sufi rebellion, revolutionary faith, and the sacred legacy of Black Muslims in shaping not just Islam — but global freedom movements.WHAT WE TALK ABOUT:Why there is no Islam without Black peopleHow Sufi orders led anti-colonial revolts across West AfricaWhy liberals fear true solidarity between Black and Arab communitiesWhat it means to reclaim Islam from both empire and whitenessMalcolm X, Palestine, and the revolutionary roots of faithWhy Ware says Islam is inherently radical, and liberals won't save usHow storytelling, family, and love serve as tools for resistanceWHO IS BUTCH WARE?Rudolph “Butch” Ware is a historian of West Africa, Islam, and the Black Muslim world. He's the author of The Walking Qur'an: Islamic Education, Embodied Knowledge, and History in West Africa, and a leading voice in challenging Western narratives around Islam and African history. He speaks at the intersection of Sufism, slavery, liberation theology, and Black diasporic spirituality. His work dismantles colonial myths and re-centers the sacred in our understanding of resistance.KEY QUOTES FROM THE EPISODE:“There is no such thing as Islam without Black people. Islam didn't just show up in Africa — it was born in Africa.”“When the empire suppresses love, joy, and memory — storytelling becomes a revolutionary act.”“Liberalism is fine with coexistence, as long as it doesn't disrupt the structure of violence. That's not liberation.”WHY THIS CONVERSATION MATTERSAt a time when Muslim identity is either flattened or weaponized, Dr. Ware reminds us that faith has always been a tool of both survival and struggle. In a world where Gaza is burning, ICE is raiding, and history is being rewritten in real time, this episode offers truth — rooted in legacy, memory, and resistance.0:00 Intro – Who is Butch Ware?1:35 Growing up Muslim, Southern, and Black4:00 There is no Islam without Black people7:12 How Sufism sparked anti-colonial revolts10:05 Blackness, slavery, and prophetic tradition13:45 Liberalism vs. Revolutionary Islam16:30 Islamophobia, empire, and the theft of history20:55 Malcolm X and Gaza: Solidarity across struggle24:30 Love, storytelling, and decolonizing spirituality29:45 Final message to young Muslims and Black ArabsABOUT HABIBI HOUSEHabibi House is a culture-forward, decolonial, and unfiltered podcast centering MENA voices and their intersections with global liberation.

01:06:33 – 01:07:19Settler and IDF Violence Kills Nearly 1,000 Palestinians Since 2023Following the October 7 invasion, violence against Palestinians has intensified. Even former Israeli PM Ehud Olmert condemned the atrocities, noting many of the victims are children. 01:11:29 – 01:12:38Christians Abandoned by Pro-Israel U.S. LeadersDespite settler attacks on Christian villages, figures like Huckabee stay silent. Accusations rise that financial and political interests override concern for persecuted Christians. 01:12:40 – 01:13:52Churches Burned, Crops Destroyed in West Bank PogromsSettlers torch homes, crops, and a Christian cemetery in Tebe. The systematic violence and desecration are framed as genocidal land seizure. 01:16:11 – 01:17:14Israel Bombs Catholic Church in Gaza, Killing ThreeA strike on the only Catholic church in Gaza sparks outrage—even from the Pope. Israel claims it was a mistake, while critics recall past “accidental” attacks like the USS Liberty. 01:25:10 – 01:26:08Israel Bombs Syrian Defense Ministry Amid Druze ConflictAfter West Jerusalem threatened “painful blows,” Israel launched strikes on Damascus, including near the presidential palace. Violence now spreads into Syria. 01:38:25 – 01:39:33BRICS Condemns U.S. and Israeli Bombings of IranBRICS leaders denounce violations of international law, prompting Trump to threaten tariffs and sanctions—escalating a global divide between unipolar control and multipolar sovereignty. 01:44:06 – 01:45:18Dave Smith Condemns Pro-Israel “Pro-Lifers”At a Turning Point event, Smith calls out conservative hypocrisy—arguing that supporting Israel's bombing of Gaza disqualifies anyone from claiming to be “pro-life.” 01:56:47 – 01:58:01Undercover Video Exposes Abortionist's Cruelty and EnthusiasmVirginia abortionist Jessica Rubino is filmed joking about killing babies and offering “gender care.” 02:01:09 – 02:04:08Spiritual Case Against AbortionThe argument builds from biology to theology, stating that if one believes in the soul—even vaguely—then abortion becomes inexcusable spiritual murder. 02:10:29 – 02:10:59Starvation or Death: Gaza's No-Win SituationThe UN confirms Gazans face deadly choices—either starve or be shot at aid stations. The speaker accuses Israel of weaponizing humanitarian aid. 02:14:20 – 02:15:10Zionism's Fruits: Genocide and DespairA Christian calls on fellow believers to reckon with the consequences of supporting Zionism—arguing it has yielded mass murder and spiritual rot. 02:33:26 – 02:33:57Planned Parenthood's Sex Ed Targets ChildrenThe organization's new digital program pushes radical ideas, such as children being “sexual from birth,” to teachers of students as young as 8 years old. 02:38:40 – 02:39:23Consumerism Replaces the Joy of ParenthoodA cultural shift equates fulfillment with goods and experiences, while ignoring the unique love, meaning, and legacy children offer. 02:55:30 – 02:57:23Trump Sued Over Superman Meme by DC and James GunnTrump is mocked for a photoshopped Superman tweet that prompted a billion-dollar lawsuit from Warner Bros. and DC. The reaction is framed as absurd censorship and political overreach. 03:01:27 – 03:02:30Trump Denounces Epstein Files as Democrat HoaxTrump calls the Epstein scandal a Democratic hoax, undermining his prior rhetoric. The move angers his base and is seen as a betrayal of earlier promises to expose child trafficking networks. 03:07:04 – 03:08:12QAnon's Failed Prophecies and Trump's CollapseThe transcript mocks QAnon for never delivering results. Trump's recent behavior contradicts years of supposed “trust the plan” messaging, leading to disillusionment. 03:44:23 – 03:45:42China Unveils Robotic ‘Murder Wolves' for CombatVideo footage shows China deploying quadruped robots with drones. The segment critiques their aesthetics and warns about their real potential for battlefield use. 03:52:54 – 03:53:23Automation Removes Human Moral JudgmentDelegating warfare to robots removes the human conscience from battle decisions. The fear is that “malfunctions” will be used as plausible deniability for atrocities.

There's something profoundly liberating about peeling back the layers of history and finding the raw, untamed wisdom beneath. On today's episode, we welcome Neil Douglas Klotz, a scholar and mystic whose journey into the Aramaic roots of Jesus's teachings unveils a radically different understanding of the man, his message, and the world he lived in.The Jesus many of us have encountered is a product of centuries of translation, political maneuvering, and cultural adaptation. The blue-eyed, English-speaking figure who stands at the center of Western Christianity is a far cry from the Aramaic-speaking mystic who roamed the hills of ancient Palestine. Neil Douglas Klotz takes us back to the beginning, to the words that Jesus actually spoke, words that vibrate with an entirely different rhythm than those found in the King James Bible. “If you read ‘spirit' in the New Testament,” he says, “just put ‘breath' over that word, because that's what the Aramaic also means.”It is in this forgotten wisdom that we find a Jesus who wasn't simply demanding belief but rather inviting participation.One of the most profound mistranslations, according to Klotz, is the oft-quoted phrase “believe in me.” In Aramaic, the more accurate translation is “believe like me.” This shifts the message entirely—Jesus wasn't asking for blind devotion but instead urging people to embody faith in the way he did, to step into the divine flow as he had.The Aramaic worldview, Klotz explains, did not divide existence into rigid dualities. There was no separation between body and soul, breath and spirit, heaven and earth. The kingdom of heaven, Jesus said, is not some far-off celestial domain but something “within and among” us. The words for “within” and “among” are the same in Aramaic—suggesting that the divine is not a place to go but a way to be, something alive in the interconnected web of existence.And what of hell? Another grand misunderstanding, says Klotz. Jesus never spoke of a fiery pit of eternal torment but rather referred to Gehenna, a literal burning trash heap outside of Jerusalem. The idea of an eternal damnation was a much later addition, a political tool used to control through fear. The Jesus of Aramaic tradition wasn't threatening souls with punishment—he was urging people to purify their burdens, to release what weighs them down, to transform their suffering rather than be consumed by it.Even the crucifixion, Klotz suggests, is layered in mystery and translation errors. The idea of Jesus returning, he argues, is not about a second coming in the clouds but rather about a recognition of Christ's presence in one another. “We will see Jesus in each other and in nature,” he says. “That's the Second Coming.” Perhaps the greatest tragedy of organized religion has been its insistence on externalizing the divine, when all along Jesus was saying: It's here, now, inside you.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.

Israel targets Syria's Sweida in new strike "Israel has launched a new air strike in southern Syria's Sweida city. The attack late on Thursday targeted the outskirts of the city. The strike came a day after the Syrian Interior Ministry confirmed a new ceasefire agreement in the city, which includes full reintegration of the southern province under central government authority. Israel has been targeting the capital, Damascus, as well as Sweida and Daraa.

In May, a project called the Community Safety Campaign released a 134-page guide for Jewish organizers seeking to push their synagogues and communities towards an abolitionist approach to safety. The guide outlined a critique of the dominant “safety through surveillance” paradigm, in which Jewish communities rely on collaboration with police, the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security, and private security forces to prevent violence and other threats. This approach is often tied in with these organizations' embrace of the criminalization and repression of Palestine solidarity. As an alternative, the Community Safety Campaign guide offers a blueprint for Jewish organizations based on the Jewish left rallying cry of “safety through solidarity,” focused on creating trained community teams that provide safety at events and work closely with other religious and ethnic groups to share resources. Two Community Safety Campaign organizers, Nadav David and Erica Riddick, join associate editor Mari Cohen to discuss the political context that drove them to create the guide, the big players of the “safety through surveillance” paradigm, and existing successes in piloting community safety efforts across multiple synagogues in Boston. They also talk through approaching cases in which law enforcement has successfully combatted white supremacist violence and synagogue attacks, and consider how to draw the line between community safety and vigilante violence.

01:05:15 – 01:17:40ICE Imprisons Irish Man After Medical Visa OverstayAn Irish tourist overstays his visa by 3 days due to injury and ends up in ICE detention for over 100 days, enduring inhumane conditions, language barriers, and confusion. Bureaucracy, cruelty, and lack of due process are exposed, with DHS and private prison contractors refusing to comment. 01:25:20 – 01:33:18“Alligator Alcatraz”: Florida's High-Tech Migrant Detention FacilityA massive, remote ICE detention center opens in the Everglades. Officials boast of natural barriers (like pythons and alligators), but critics cite rising costs, humanitarian risks, and logistical failures—warning it mirrors the original Alcatraz's downfall. 02:02:05 – 02:04:05Debate Over State vs. Federal Immigration AuthorityCommenters argue whether states should independently control immigration. Some fear liberal states abusing that power, while others say the federal government's track record proves it's unfit to manage it at all. 02:05:00 – 02:06:05ICE's Expansion Will Eventually Target AmericansEven if ICE succeeds in its immigration goals, the host warns its surveillance apparatus and militarized control will be redirected toward domestic populations. 02:06:20 – 02:06:42Evangelical Leader John MacArthur Dies at 86MacArthur's death is noted, marking the end of a major chapter in American conservative Christianity. 02:20:35 – 02:29:57Newborn Dumped in Dumpster: Heartbreaking Rescue and Abortion ParallelsA Nevada mother is arrested after abandoning her newborn in a dumpster. The host expresses moral outrage and argues that had the act occurred hours earlier in a Planned Parenthood, it would be considered legal. He condemns the double standard and calls it a demonic disregard for life. 02:30:01 – 02:31:45New Superman Film Surprises with Traditional ThemesA new Superman movie is praised for avoiding woke messaging and affirming adoption and real fatherhood. Despite the director's earlier comments about immigration metaphors, the final product appears refreshingly apolitical. 03:05:28 – 03:06:00Trump DOJ and EPA Appeal Fluoride RulingDespite a federal judge's decision that water fluoridation poses health risks, the Trump DOJ and EPA announce an appeal. Critics argue the government is protecting industry profits over children's health. 03:06:30 – 03:08:54Corporate Lobbyists Back EPA's Fluoride PushBig Chemical interests and dental associations join the EPA in fighting the ruling. The host mocks the idea of forced fluoridation, calling it unnecessary and coercive, especially given product warnings on fluoride-containing items. 03:33:55 – 03:37:25U.S.-Funded Israeli Strike Kills Children at Gaza ClinicA U.S.-backed Israeli airstrike near a medical clinic kills 16 Palestinians, including 10 children.

The IDF provides no evidence that those targeted were militants. 03:39:51 – 03:42:10Palestinian Civilian Death Toll Mounts Amid IDF AssaultsReports indicate over 100 Palestinians were killed in a 24-hour period. Airstrikes hit tents, refugee camps, and aid seekers, with the host emphasizing the deliberate nature of these attacks and criticizing America's role in enabling them. 03:44:09 – 03:45:21Aid Zones Targeted by Israeli Forces with Lethal IntentHundreds of Palestinians seeking aid have been killed. Reports suggest IDF soldiers are told to shoot anyone entering "undefined" zones. The host likens this to an intentional trap, not collateral damage. 03:45:24 – 03:46:08Gaza Genocide Forgotten as U.S. and Israel Escalate Into IranCoverage fades on Gaza as U.S. and Israeli aggression moves to Iran. The host reads from a personal op-ed decrying the silence around Gaza and warning of new Middle East destabilization efforts led by Netanyahu and Trump. 03:46:09 – 03:48:24Israel Starves Gaza, Then Shoots at Starving CiviliansIsrael's military blockade leads to famine. When desperate civilians gather for food, many are killed. The host describes this as a pattern—not accidents—and notes the media silence on this escalating war crime.
