Podcasts about palestinian struggle

On this episode of the Swell Season Surf Podcast we dive deep into a conversation with Palestinian American Zane Elias, hearing his emotional recount of the past year's turmoil following the events of October 7th and discuss his role within the New York surf community and helping to raise awareness over the suffering the Palestinians are experiencing. Zane shares his unique journey from environmental studies to becoming a voice for social justice through his artistic endeavors. Despite the toll of ongoing conflict, Zane is still able to find solace and inspiration in surfing and his community, while exploring themes of liberation, resistance to violence, and decolonizing oneself. This episode is a poignant blend of personal anecdotes, philosophical musings, and heartfelt discussions about finding community and purpose amid turmoil.

Gaza's population of 2.3 million are pawns in a cynical battle for control of post-war Gaza. Israel's refusal to lift restrictions on the unfettered entry into Gaza of food, medical supplies, and other desperately needed humanitarian goods, has less to do with a stand-alone starvation policy and more with who controls distribution in the Strip. Both Israel and Hamas see control of aid distribution as a building block of who comes out on top once the guns fall silent.

We see the oppression of the people of Palestine in Gaza and the West Bank, but how do we support them in the best of ways?

While Israel is escalating its attacks on Palestine and its neighbors, it has still not achieved its proclaimed goals, and resistance to Israel's genocide is growing around the world. Palestine's allies in the region are not backing down, and in the U.S. another massive national march on Washington is planned for this Saturday.

With full, unyielding participation, the government of the United States is aiding the State of Israel in its months' long bombardment of the population of Gaza, and stepping up its already horrific treatment of Palestinians in the occupied territories.

While this campaign is extraordinary, even compared to previous military incursions into Gaza, it is part of a larger project that has been ongoing for over a century.

Let's unravel the complex and deeply-rooted Israeli-Palestinian conflict with our guest, Adar Weinreb, a former Israeli Defense Forces soldier turned peace advocate. As someone who's been on the front lines, Adar brings a unique perspective to the conversation, revealing his transformative journey from soldier to advocate, and the importance of humanizing 'the other' when navigating such deep-rooted conflict. His experiences and insights offer a rich understanding of how to facilitate dialogue in divisive cultural landscapes. We step back to explore the historical roots of Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the importance of focusing on the present and future, rather than dwelling on the past. Through this lens, we delve into the power dynamics between Israel and Palestine, as well as the broader Arab region's influence on this ongoing conflict. We also examine the potential implications of attempting to defeat Hamas, and contemplate alternative solutions that could change the status quo, reduce civilian casualties, and pave the way towards lasting peace. As we navigate these intricate waters, we also ponder the potential for broader escalation involving Iran and Hezbollah in the Israeli-Hamas conflict. We discuss the complex history of U.S. support for Islamist governments in the Middle East, the challenges of nation-building, and the potential consequences of ground invasions and long-range missile attacks. Despite the current context of conflict and tension, we remain hopeful for a brighter future, a resolution to these long-standing issues, and a path towards peace. Join us for this enlightening exploration of a deeply-rooted conflict from someone who's been in the thick of it.12:37 Israeli-Palestinian Conflict Historical Roots26:26 The Implications of Defeating Hamas32:09 Potential Escalation in Israeli-Hezbollah ConflictMusic: Coma-Media (intro)                 WinkingFoxMusic (outro)Recorded: 10/25/23

Parvez and Omar had the pleasure of sitting with Dr. Ussama Makdisi, Professor of History at the University of California Berkeley for a detailed, highly enlightening and impassioned discussion of the history of the Palestinian struggle. Dr. Makdisi masterfully contextualizes what is happening right now in Palestine within the broader history of the Western colonialist, Zionist project that has dehumanized, brutalized, and ethnically cleansed the Palestinian people for over 75 years.    About Dr. Ussama Makdisi Dr. Ussama Makdisi is Professor of History and Chancellor's Chair at the University of California Berkeley.

Hanan will join me to discuss the Palestinian struggle, human rights, and U.S. policy on Palestine with a focus on said policy during the Presidencies of Donald J. Trump and now Joe Biden. We'll also discuss Dr. Ashrawi's encounter with the South African anti-apartheid revolutionary Nelson Mandela, the expulsions of Palestinians from their homes in the Sheikh Jarrah district of East Jerusalem, the human rights and international law approach to Israel/Palestine, the propaganda matrix around Israel/Palestine, hope for the future of the Palestinian cause, and much, much more!

Since the Palestinian Authority's killing of political activist Nizar Banat in June, Palestinians have been holding protests in Ramallah and other parts of the West Bank. The PA has responded with tear gas, stun grenades, and harassment of human rights defenders and journalists, in what has been described as a “concerted crackdown on freedom of speech and the right to peaceful protest.” In recent weeks, dozens of protesters – including prominent human rights activists – were detained by PA security forces. While the detainees have since been released, the crackdown highlights the Palestinian leadership's diminishing tolerance for dissent as well as a deeper crisis of legitimacy. What's behind these latest protests as well as the PA's crackdown against them? What is the relationship between the protests in Ramallah and recent Palestinian popular political mobilizations in Gaza, Jerusalem, and inside the Green Line? And what do these Palestinian initiatives mean for the overarching struggle against ongoing Israeli occupation and dispossession?

On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Dr. Yasser Al-Kidwa, the nephew of the late leader of the Palestinian Liberation Organisation Yasser Arafat. He discusses the presidential election next door in Syria which saw Bashar Al-Assad re-elected for another 7-year term, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s visit to Ramallah to meet with Mahmoud Abbas, perceptions that the Palestinian Authority and ruling elite are out of touch for still pursuing negotiations with the United States, whether the Palestinian resistance is moving toward armed struggle as Hamas has arguably sidelined the Palestinian Authority, Mahmoud Abbas’ attempts to remove him from the Yasser Arafat Foundation’s board of directors, how the situation would look if Yasser Arafat were to be leading the resistance in 2021, and much more! Finally, we speak to Daniel Levy, Israeli negotiator in the Oslo 2 agreements. He discusses the US’ inaction over the Israeli aerial bombardment of Palestine and how China showed leadership at the UN in trying to begin international action against Israel, whether the Palestinian resistance is moving away toward armed struggle following Hamas’ show of force despite Israeli bombardment, how public opinion among Democrats is shifting toward a pro-Palestinian position after Israeli PM Netanyahu and former President Trump made Israel’s occupation of Palestine a partisan issue, the designation of Israel as an apartheid state and much more!

This week, we're looking at the Palestinian struggle through the lens. We're joined by Palestinian-British filmmaker Farah Nabulsi, whose short movie "The Present" has been nominated for the Oscars and BAFTAs. It centres around a Palestinian man and his young daughter, who set out in the West Bank to buy his wife an anniversary gift: a fridge. The director tells us more about this hard-hitting film.

On this edition of Voices of the Middle East and North Africa, Khalil Bendib speaks with international lawyer, activist and former PLO negotiator Diana Buttu about the state of the Palestinian cause at a time when an international conspiracy by colonialist and neocolonialist regimes worldwide is frantically busy rolling back a cause that has become an international rallying cry for struggles against injustice everywhere, whether the BLM movement, democracy movements in Middle East and North Africa regions or any liberation and fights against oppression and inequality in the world.

Danny and Kayla speak with Palestinian writer and activist Khaled Barakat about the Palestinian freedom struggle in the 21st century.

It seems an Israeli-Palestinian peace settlement is further away than ever, with the Netanyahu government approving late last week the first new illegal colonial outpost, commonly referred to as a settlement, in the West Bank in 20 years. Military occupation remains a daily reality for millions of Palestinians, and the people of Gaza continue to go about their lives under conditions of siege. There are fragile signs of hope however, perhaps none more so than in the West Bank village of Nabi Salih, for seven long years home to weekly peaceful protests against the Israeli occupation. The key leader of these protests is Nabi Salih resident Bassem Tamimi. Bassem was due to arrive in Perth this Wednesday evening to begin a speaking tour of Australia, but his entry visa has thus far been denied by the Turnbull government. Alex Whisson began by asking Bassem why he felt it was so important for the people of his village to so defiantly maintain weekly protests against the occupation over such a long period of time.
