NATO/Ukraine Bombs Russia's Kerch Bridge In New Attempt To Derail Trump's Peace Initiative! Plus, DOJ Task Force Leader Ed Martin Officially Launches Criminal Investigation Into The Ringleaders Of The Illegal Deep State Autopen Coup! 

In this episode of Occupied Thoughts, FMEP Fellow Peter Beinart speaks with Dr. Lara Jirmanus and Professor Atalia Omer about the Harvard University's two new reports, one on Islamophobia and anti-Palestinian bias and the other on antisemitism and anti-Israel bias. They discuss the quality of the reports, how the antisemitism report erases Jews who are critical of Israel, and what the potential impact is for a report on Islamophobia, anti-Arab and Anti-Palestinian bigotry.  For more, see the two Harvard reports: Combating Anti-Muslim, Anti-Arab, and Anti-Palestinian Bias" and "Combating Antisemitism and Anti-Israeli Bias."  Dr. Lara Jirmanus is a family physician and a Clinical Instructor at Harvard Medical School. Lara has been involved in grassroots organizing, advocacy and research for many years, addressing worker and immigrant rights in the US, infectious diseases in Brazil and the impact of conflict and displacement in the Middle East. She recently published "Harvard talks free speech but silences Palestine" (Al Jazeera May 7, 2025).  Atalia Omer, PhD is professor of religion, conflict, and peace studies in the Keough School of Global Affairs at the University of Notre Dame and a core faculty member of the Keough School's Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies. Her research focuses on religion, violence, and peacebuilding as well as theories and methods in the study of religion and Palestine/Israel. Atalia  earned her PhD in religion, ethics, and politics from the Committee on the Study of Religion at Harvard University and she was, until recently, a senior fellow at Harvard Divinity School's Religion and Public Life's Religion, Conflict, and Peace Initiative. Atalia is also on the Board of Directors of the Foundation for Middle East Peace. She recently published "I'm an Israeli professor. Why is my work in Harvard's antisemitism report?" (The Guardian, May 9, 2025.) Original music by Jalal Yaquoub.

To reverse the dangerous and destructive trend towards religion- and ethnic-based conflicts there needs to be a concerted effort to chart a different approach that is rooted in a shared understanding of a common providential purpose for all humanity and animated by a mutual determination on the part of people of faith and goodwill to collaborate in education and action aimed at building a world of sectarian harmony and peace. This is the core purpose of the Abrahamic Peace Initiative (API), which recognizes Abraham and his family not only as the origin point of the three great monotheistic religions but also as the central figures tasked with forging a world of goodness based on enlightened hearts and minds working together for the peaceful resolution of conflicts. (API is a project of New America Initiative.) API believes that this, and not violent extremism, is the true purpose of religion and other moral and ethical systems, and that this peaceful approach is needed around the world today—from America and Europe to Africa, Asia and the Middle East. It is an approach that can inspire and guide leaders in peace-building and reconciliation relevant to communities of all religious affiliations. The API provides an ideology of inter-religious harmony that can underpin initiatives such as the Abraham Accords and other worthy peace-making efforts. This presentation will also inform the attendees about the Hizmet Movement. Hizmet (meaning “service” in Turkish) is a transnational network of education, dialogue and humanitarian initiatives. The movement is faith-inspired yet faith-neutral as it welcomes people from all backgrounds. Hizmet's foundations come from mainline Sunni Islam with a strong component of Islamic spirituality. The movement represents a school of thought that upholds personal devotion, freedom of expression, entrepreneurship, and nonviolence. Hizmet is a significant partner in the Abrahamic Peace Initiative. About the Speaker: Thomas Cromwell is co-founder of the New America Initiative and Chairman of the API. He spent 25 years in the Middle East, 18 of which as publisher and editor of the Middle East Times. During his time in the region he conducted a series of conferences that brought together Arabs and Israelis, Greeks, Turks and Iranians, to address shared challenges to their societies, from urbanization and agriculture to education and conflict resolution. He has travelled to 130 countries in the pursuit of understanding and to promote solutions to inter-religious and inter-ethnic conflicts. He has authored several books on these topics, including The Triumph of Good. Ibrahim Anli is Executive Director of the Rumi Forum and Advisor to API. He was a visiting researcher at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He later joined the Journalists and Writers Foundation (JWF), Hizmet Movement's leading organization based in Turkey, and led the foundation's diplomatic outreach as well as its intellectual dialogue programs. Ibrahim taught International Relations and Diplomacy at Tishk International University in Erbil, Kurdistan before he joined the Rumi Forum in 2019. He holds a BA in Economics and an MA in Conflict Resolution. **Learn more about IWP graduate programs: https://www.iwp.edu/academic-programs/ ***Make a gift to IWP: https://interland3.donorperfect.net/weblink/WebLink.aspx?name=E231090&id=3

Rabbi Sharon Brous is the founding rabbi of IKAR, a Jewish community in Los Angeles, and the author of The Amen Effect: Ancient Wisdom to Heal Our Hearts and Mend Our Broken World. In this conversation, Rabbi Brous emphasizes the importance of “sacred encounters,” people truly see and hear each other's stories, particularly in times of grief or pain. She also points to the Jewish ritual of asking the brokenhearted, “Tell me what happened to you?” as a model for deep, empathetic listening.

We finish our four-part series from the Peace Initiative for Israel and Palestine hosted at Commune Topanga with a unique conversation between Mohsen Mahdawi and Aharon Dardik. Facing each other just a few feet apart, Mohsen and Aharon practice sharing the most empathetic version of the other's life. As Jeff sits quietly between them, he is struck (again) by this profound realization: We need to be able to tell each other's stories — because when we feel seen and heard, only then can geopolitical solutions be cooperatively strategized, argued, and drafted.

We continue our four-part series from the Peace Initiative for Israel and Palestine hosted at Commune Topanga by featuring Aharon Dardik, a Columbia student and activist. After moving as a child from Oakland, California, to a settlement in the West Bank, Aharon witnessed Israeli occupation and militarism firsthand. Aharon conscientiously objected to service in the Israeli Air Force and, following a four-month process of imprisonment, was legally recognized as a pacifist and discharged from military service. Since then, Aharon has worked in both Israeli and American grassroots activism, governmental lobbying, and policy writing for peace. Aharon and Jeff discuss Aharon's work at Columbia toward bridging the Jewish and Palestinian communities, promoting understanding, and reducing demonization — an undertaking that hasn't always been easy.

We continue our four-part series from the Peace Initiative for Israel and Palestine hosted at Commune Topanga by featuring Mohsen Mahdawi, a passionate activist and bridge-builder at Columbia University, currently in his senior year.Mohsen underscores empathy as the foundation of his work, especially in understanding others' perspectives, including Israelis and Jews, despite the challenging circumstances.In this conversation with Jeff, Mohsen shares his story of growing up in a Palestinian refugee camp and the significant trauma he experienced there. Despite losing an uncle, two cousins, and his best friend during the Second Intifada, and more recently, two additional cousins in the West Bank, Mohsen remains steadfast in his hope for justice and peace. Together Mohsen and Jeff discuss the importance of empathy, cross-cultural dialogue, addressing trauma, and peaceful advocacy for change.This podcast is supported by: Timeline: Timeline is offering the Commune community 10% off your first order at timeline.com/partners/jeff-krasno-communeApollo Neuro:Get 15% off your purchase of the Apollo wearable at ApolloNeuro.com/communeVivobarefootUse code COMMUNE25 and get 25% off  https://www.vivobarefoot.com/us/communeBiOptimizersUnlock your body's full potential with Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers, Use code ONECOMMUNE for 10% off any order at magbreakthrough.com/onecommune LMNTGet a free sample pack with any purchase at DrinkLMNT.com/COMMUNE EudēmoniaEudēmonia will take place in West Palm Beach, Florida on November 1-3.

At the end of August, Jeff hosted a summit at Commune Topanga called the Peace Initiative for Israel & Palestine. This week-long mini-conference gathered Palestinian and Israeli/Jewish campus leaders from Columbia University, Brown University, and UCLA as well as a number of Middle East historians and professional mediators. The goal was to engage in deep listening, to learn each other's narratives, and to stand in each other's shoes. And then, from this place of empathy and mutual understanding, work cooperatively to forge potential solutions for peace between Israel and Palestine. The genesis of this summit is Dr. Jean Krasno's classroom at Columbia University, where she recently taught a class titled “Peacekeeping and Negotiation.” Today's episode features Dr. Jean Krasno (aka Jeff's mom) and sets the table for the following three episodes. Jean shares how she cultivated a sanctuary for non-violent conversation where people could be heard and seen and opposing ideas could be discussed and debated.

Send us a Text Message.Geneva is the home of international law, the rules that are supposed to stop the worst violations in war. But does anyone respect it anymore? Andrew Clapham, Professor of International Law at the Geneva Graduate Institute, says: “It's quite blatant that when we like what the International Criminal Court is doing we will support it, but as soon as it steps out of line we will call it a ridiculous institution. So, it is a bit of a crossroads for international law.” The Geneva Conventions are 75 years old – are young people even aware of them? “We have the law, and at least my generation or younger generations tolerate much less those types of violations, and we are reporting more,” says Cristina Figueira Shah, international law student and co-President of the Human Rights, Conflict and Peace Initiative. Are there any rules of war that work? Laurent Gisel, Head of the Arms and Conduct of Hostilities Unit at the Legal Division of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), explains that “far fewer people know about the prohibition of blinding laser weapons than the mine ban treaty. Why? Because it has been prohibited before they were developed. And it was prohibited 50 years ago.” Does indicting a political leader achieve more than headlines? “Naming somebody as a potential war criminal has a huge effect because if the leader is named as a war criminal, like President Putin or Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, that means that assisting them to do what they are doing means that you are aiding and assisting, potentially, in a war crime,” says Clapham. How can we encourage more respect? “I think we should go back and understand all the reasons why we got to this point in the first place. How we wrote all the international treaties and understand from that what our generation can do to improve it,” says Shah.“Violation of international humanitarian law creates even more hatred. And if you want to live in peace afterwards, it helps to respect international humanitarian law during the conflict,” says Gisel. Join Imogen Foulkes for an Inside Geneva special from Geneva's Graduate Institute where experts and audience ask: “Is international law dead”? Please listen and subscribe to our science podcast -- the Swiss Connection.

We understand that some people may find these triggering, activating and/or disturbing.  Our guest Stacy shares her personal journey with her sister Katie Jo, painting a vivid picture of the nurturing role she assumed in her sister's life and the distance that time and circumstances can create.

Next episode available from Monday, March 13th with guest Patricia Castillo How do you end domestic violence?

To mark the one year anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Global Dispatches has teamed up with the podcast Inside Geneva to bring you a live recording in which host Imogen Foulkes is joined by conflict resolution experts to discuss the prospects for peace – and how it can be won.   “The fact that we're talking about the possibility of using nuclear weapons, the fact that we're talking about the possibility of the United States and China going to war over Taiwan; it's frightening,” says Katia Papagianni, director of Policy and Mediation Support at the Centre for Humanitarian Dialogue. “There is a concept that has been floating around in academia for many years called a hurting stalemate, when the two parties decide that enough is enough. And we are clearly not at this hurting stalemate,” says Keith Krause, director of the Centre on Conflict, Development, and Peacebuilding at the Graduate Institute Geneva (IHEID). What does a lasting peace look like? “Peace is beyond the absence of violence. It's really about access to justice, economic opportunities, security, and pluralism,” says Hiba Qasas, executive director of the Principles for Peace Initiative. “Sustainable peace needs to include the youth, it needs to inform the youth, and it needs to educate the youth; so inclusion, information, and education,” says Shefali Kaur Nandhra, a graduate student in sustainable development at IHEID. Are there good examples from the past?  “There are, of course, some success stories. I think the Colombian process, we have a lot to learn from that, and not just because it was locally driven,” says Krause. “As someone who grew up in conflict, my concern is not only about the battlefield, but also about all the insidious impacts that come after the guns have been silenced,” says Qasas. Once you listen to this episode, please be sure to subscribe to Inside Geneva wherever you find podcasts.  Inside Geneva is produced by SwissInfo, a public service media company based in Bern, Switzerland.

Joe Warmington remembers Mayor Hazel McCallion. Georganne Burke on why Trudeau doesn't want an election. Trump's peace initiative has Americans flocking back on his bandwagon.

Welcome to Gorilla Radio, recorded January 22 & 28th, 2023. More than two years after BC's former premier, John Horgan's re-election promise to implement the recommendations of his own government's Old Growth Strategy Review panel it's business as usual in the woods. While some of the OGSR's 14 point plan was implemented, big trees are still falling and the forests are in peril. The NDP also, after Horgan's snap election win, ceded policing authority to deal with old growth forest defenders near the capital to the federal RCMP, whose paramilitary tactics and brutality at the Fairy Creek encampments elicited international expressions of disgust and condemnation. Now, a grand manifestation of First Nations, conservation organizations, ecological agencies, and citizens concerned about the loss of an irreplaceable biological legacy is planned to surround the seat of government to state demands for policy change in more fervent language. Saul Arbess is a long-time peace, justice, and environmental champion. He describes himself as a cultural anthropologist and futurist, dedicated to "creating a new architecture of peace in the world". Saul served as National Co-chair of the Canadian Department of Peace Initiative, was co-founder and chair of the Global Alliance for Ministries and Departments of Peace, and currently works for peace, non-violence, and protecting the wildlands around his home city of Victoria. Photo: Bill Johnston Saul Arbess in the first half. And, January on Canada's west coast means Season's change is soon; but even as we ready for Spring, east of here the cruelest months of Winter still lay ahead. That cold reality isn't however deterring citizen demonstration of dissatisfaction with the ongoing NATO wars and occupations. Monday, January 23, as part of the week-long protests around North America, Hamiltonians picketed the prime minister's cabinet meeting taking place in the Hamilton Convention Centre. One focus of their vigil being the "purchase of the obscenely-expensive F-35 fighter jets". Ken Stone is an executive member of both the Syria Support Movement and Hamilton Coalition to Stop the Wars. Ken Stone and Canada's Winter war resisters in the second half.

Atalia Omer discusses restorative justice practices and the possibilities (and limits) of Jewish critiques of Zionism. In the same way that it is no longer possible to talk about antisemitism without also thinking about Israel/Palestine, it is no longer possible to imagine Jewish ethics outside the realities of Jewish power. My focus here is on when such thinking unfolds through a restorative justice prism or carries a restorative justice potential. At stake is not only a Jewish critique of Zionism, but also justice for Palestinians. The two issues are forever enmeshed. Examining Judith Butler's relational ethical analysis of Zionism in her Parting Ways and Michael Manekin's recent The Dawn of Redemption, I argue that, to the degree that restorative justice practices are missing from ethical Jewish reflections on Zionism and Israelism, the sources of such Jewish critiques of Zionism remain diasporic. Butler approaches it from the comfort of diasporic “authenticity,” while Manekin reclaims a Jewish (Israeli) ethics from within the realities of Jewish Israeliness and with an effort to reimagine religious Zionism as gentle and kind. At the same time, focusing on Jewish Israeli restorative justice practices and potentials, including Zochrot, young “refusniks,” and the petition of Jewish Israelis against Israel apartheid propelled by the escalation of violence in May 2021, offers a pathway for unsettling the diasporic as the primary source of ethical critique of Israelism. These restorative pathways constitute sources for Jewish ethics from the ground up where the experiences of Jewish power and Israelism can no longer be bracketed or magically theorized out of existence as “inauthentic.” Atalia Omer is a Professor of Religion, Conflict, and Peace Studies at the Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies and at the Keough School of Global Affairs at the University of Notre Dame in the United States. She is also the Dermot T.J. Dunphy Visiting Professor of Religion, Violence, and Peace Building at Harvard University and a senior fellow at the Religion, Conflict, and Peace Initiative at Harvard University's Religion and Public Life program. She earned her PhD in Religion, Ethics, and Politics (2008) from the Committee on the Study of Religion at Harvard University. Her research focuses on religion, violence, and peacebuilding with a particular focus on Palestine/Israel as well as theories and methods in the study of religion. Omer was awarded an Andrew Carnegie Fellowship in 2017 to complete a manuscript titled Decolonizing Religion and Peacebuilding. Among other publications, Omer is the author of When Peace is Not Enough: How the Israeli Peace Camp Thinks about Religion, Nationalism, and Justice (University of Chicago Press, 2015) and Days of Awe: Reimagining Jewishness in Solidarity with Palestinians (University of Chicago Press, 2019). She is also a co-editor of the Oxford Handbook of Religion, Conflict, and Peacebuilding (Oxford University Press, 2015).

Scott talks with Weimin Chen about his recent article on the Nord Stream 2 Pipeline. The pipeline will transport natural gas from Russia to Germany. Chen explains that these two countries have a long history of conflict, so we should see increased economic engagement as a triumph. But of course, that's not how many in the U.S. government see it. Chen explains that those involved with the project have had to deal with U.S. sanctions since the Obama Administration. Washington has opposed the project both in the name of protecting American gas companies from competition and as a way to avoid giving Russia leverage over Europe. However, the Biden Administration has stopped the sanctions, signaling a change in the American position. Some Europeans themselves oppose the pipeline on environmental grounds. And others are upset they'll make less collecting fees on gas traveling through their borders. But both Scott and Chen agree that all sides need to consider the risk of thermonuclear war when advocating against economic engagement.  Discussed on the show: “Nord Stream 2: The Value of German-Russian Cooperation” (Austrian Economics Center) Weimin Chen is a research assistant at the Austrian Economics Center and is a manager and project/events coordinator at the International Student Center's Arts for Peace Initiative in New York City.

Jane and Monica Kinyua are Program Manager and Deputy Director for Children’s Peace Initiative in Nariobi, Kenya.I met Jane at the Mediators Beyond Borders International Peace Congress, and was able to connect with the Kinyua sisters about overcoming the history of conflict that shadow Kenya. Through their life work at CPI, they are able to guide the next generation to bridge communities that have been in conflict for many years.The Children's Peace Initiative, also known as CPI, works with children from different communities and ethnic groups in Kenya and builds lasting friendships between them.These friendships then create opportunities for building connections between their parents and larger communities. There's a magic in working with Children who don't understand why they have inherited generational divisions and don't see why they are expected to hate one another.We reflect on the unique capacity of children to easily build bridges across ethnic differences. And we consider the importance of the role of children as they impact people of all ages and roles in the community.In this episode we get inspired by the possibility for the work they are doing in Kenya to be applied to divided communities in the United States and the rest of the world.And we put this in context by talking about the history of Kenya and how conflicts from the past continue to affect people todayYou can find out more about Jane and Monica Kinyua and CPI here: cpikenya.orgMediators Beyond Borders: https://mediatorsbeyondborders.org/Children Peace Initiative Kenya: https://cpikenya.org/Peace Camp Video: https://youtu.be/RfMu0dYVJYYDocumentary: https://youtu.be/ofVseRveFwgFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/FriendshipforpeaceInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/cpi_kenya/ @ChildrenPeaceInitiativeKenyaDonate a Heifer: https://www.globalgiving.org/microprojects/donate-50-heifers-and-end-tribal-conflict-in-kenya/#menuCPI GoFundMe:https://www.gofundme.com/f/children-peace-initiative-kenya?utm_source=customer&utm_medium=copy_link-tip&utm_campaign=p_cp+share-sheetWe talk a lot about the history of Kenya and the current ethnic diversity of the country.Here are some good resources to learn about the tribes of Kenya http://www.kenya-advisor.com/tribes-in-kenya.htmlThe history of the country https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_KenyaHere is a map of the ethnic distribution of the country. https://images.app.goo.gl/rMghyAxE87K6TWGP7More Info at: "Children for a Peaceful Future" with Jane and Monica Kinyua

Many small, local steps may lead more effectively to peace than big dreams of a perfect state. This principle lies at the heart of an innovative approach to conflict mediation developed by the late Kenyan mediator Dekha Ibrahim Abdi and ETH peace researcher Simon Mason. In this podcast, Simon Mason and Kaltuma Hassan Noorow, the mediator’s daughter, talk about their experiences in Kenya and Switzerland. They also refer to their unconditional will to work – and live – for global peace, not for hatred.

On today’s show I’m speaking with someone who is responsible for my nickname, my good friend, K. Leon Saunders. Join me as we reminisce and talk about how and why he gave me my nickname of the “the doctor” and I called him “the professor.” Leon became one of the top music agents in the country, representing a who’s who of musical talent, then transitioning into producing some of the most successful celebrity golf tournaments and music festivals in the county. Currently, he dedicates his time to early childhood education with The Children’s Peace Initiative. Today, I make a house call with my good friend the professor, K.
