From repeated Israeli ceasefire violations, to Trump's 'Gaza Riviera' plan, the future of Gaza and the rest of Palestine appears to hang in the balance. In this episode, we take a step back to go through multiple factors individually, piecing them together to paint a full picture of what the future holds for Palestinians. Palestinian analyst Rami Khouri joins us to give his insights for this episode of the Let's Talk Palestine Podcast.

The ceasefire between Israel and the Palestinians is in its first phase. Some captives have been released with more to follow. Aid trucks are delivering desperately needed food, water and medicine to the besieged Palestinians. What the future will bring is uncertain. The situation is fragile. What is certain is the Palestinians have endured disproportionate death and destruction. Israel has a powerful military and the backing of the U.S. The BBC says, “After 15 months of war in Gaza, the conflict is as bitter and intractable as ever. The consequences of so much destruction and death will be felt for a generation, at least. The long-overdue ceasefire may stop the killing but won't end the conflict.”
Lebanon says any Israeli presence on its soil is now an 'occupation'. The deadline for a complete Israeli withdrawal has come and gone. So how long will Israeli troops remain in southern Lebanon? And can Lebanon assert its sovereignty? In this Episode: Ali Rizk, Political and Security Affairs Analyst in Beirut. Alon Pinkas, Former Israeli Ambassador and Consul General in New York.

During his meeting with Israel's Benjamin Netanyahu, President Trump suggested the U.S. take over the Gaza Strip after displaced Palestinians are relocated. Palestinian American journalist Rami Khouri joins us. And, the Trump administration gave federal employees a Feb. 6 deadline to quit their jobs in exchange for pay and benefits through September. But the terms of the deal keep changing. Law professor Nick Bednar explains the uncertainty and legal questions. Then, Secretary of State Marco Rubio voiced concerns about Chinese influence over the Panama Canal during a recent trip to Panama. Bloomberg's Eric Martin breaks down the history of China's relationship to the Panama Canal.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
Palestinian-American journalist Rami Khouri outlines the Israeli far-right's longstanding opposition to Palestinian self-determination and, as he says, the very right of Palestinians to exist. Khouri discusses how Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government, together with President Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken, have shredded international law at every opportunity in their genocidal slaughter and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in Gaza. Yet despite Trump's success in pressuring Netanyahu to agree to a ceasefire deal, the agreement itself is on thin ice: Israel's resumption of strikes in Gaza could lead to an unraveling of phase two negotiations, precluding the possibility of a permanent ceasefire and ultimately of any effective Palestinian governance and statehood.

Air Date 8/30/2024 Israel's assault on Gaza is fueled by pain, rage, trauma... a desire for safety, a desire for revenge, the hope for the safe return of hostages. It's a complicated mix of all of the above and more and it will be different for each person. However, there's also a deep well of denial and delusion about the decades-old status quo between Israel and Palestine that made the current conflict all but inevitable and the pursuit of genocide by some decision-makers in the Israeli government - as well as the support of the US government - possible.

Autocracy: concentrated power in the hands of a few. The U.S. is linked to a network of Arab autocracies led by sultans, emirs, and military dictators who are called “allies” and “partners.” Politics and economics make for strange bedfellows. Perhaps none is stranger than the one with the feudal regime of Saudi Arabia. The Washington/Riyadh axis goes back to 1945 when FDR met King Saud on a U.S. destroyer in the Suez Canal. The deal was struck. The U.S. would protect the Saud monarchy and in return, American corporations would have access to Saudi oilfields. In the decades since ties between the two countries have remained close. Today, the U.S. has been supporting the Saudi-led war in Yemen, which has resulted in almost 400,000 dead and millions hungry. Interview by David Barsamian. Recorded at the Middle East Studies Association annual conference.
Over the past few years, Israel's ongoing military occupation of Palestinian territory and repeated invasions of the Gaza strip have triggered a fierce backlash against Israeli policies virtually everywhere in the world -- except the United States. The Occupation of the American Mind takes an eye-opening look at this critical exception, zeroing in on pro-Israel public relations efforts within the U.S. Narrated by Roger Waters and featuring leading observers of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and U.S. media culture, the film explores how the Israeli government, the U.S. government, and the pro-Israel lobby have joined forces, often with very different motives, to shape American media coverage of the conflict in Israel's favor. From the U.S.-based public relations campaigns that emerged in the 1980s to today, the film provides a sweeping analysis of Israel's decades-long battle for the hearts, minds, and tax dollars of the American people in the face of widening international condemnation of its increasingly right-wing policies. Narrated by Roger Waters / Featuring Amira Hass, M.J. Rosenberg, Stephen M. Walt, Noam Chomsky, Rula Jebreal, Henry Siegman, Rashid Khalidi, Rami Khouri, Yousef Munayyer, Norman Finkelstein, Max Blumenthal, Phyllis Bennis, Norman Solomon, Mark Crispin Miller, Peter Hart, and Sut Jhally.

Don't act the prophet and learn to bear the recurring disappointment of one false dawn after another. Two lessons I've learned the hard way after thirteen years of covering the realities of the Middle East, North Africa and Gulf regions with the knowledgeable and engaging Dr Harry Hagopian. Today's Middle East Analysis podcast, the first of 2021, actually has a positive feel to it in light of the Al-Ula Agreement that brought to an end the three-and-a-half year blockade of Qatar by Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates and Egypt. Signed in the Saudi city that bears its name, the agreement has led to a cautious reconciliation that should suit all parties not to mention the outgoing US president Donald Trump. Respected journalist and analyst Rami Khouri described the tactic of boycotting a state as a "fool's tool" so does Dr Harry Hagopian see this agreement as a template for conflict resolution in the region? All this and more in January's Middle East Analysis.

President Trump announced Sunday that ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was killed in a U.S. Special Forces raid on his compound in northwestern Syria. According to Trump, al-Baghdadi detonated an explosive vest he was wearing, killing himself and three of his children. The raid began early Sunday when eight U.S. military helicopters flew from a base near Erbil, Iraq, to northwestern Syria over airspace controlled by Syria and Russia. Baghdadi had led ISIS since 2010. In 2014, he proclaimed the creation of an Islamic State or caliphate during a speech in Mosul. At its peak, ISIS controlled a large swath of land across Syria and Iraq and maintained a force of tens of thousands of fighters recruited from more than 100 countries. The group also claimed responsibility for deadly attacks across five continents. We speak with three guests: Juan Cole, author and professor of history at the University of Michigan; Emma Beals, award-winning investigative journalist and researcher who has covered the Syrian conflict since 2012; and Rami Khouri, senior public policy fellow and journalist-in-residence at the American University of Beirut, and a columnist at The New Arab.

I Saudiarabien öppnar biografer och kvinnor får köra bil, samtidigt som de som kämpar för mänskliga rättigheter fängslas, piskas och torteras. Kommer mordet på journalisten Jamal Khashoggi att förändra någonting? I dagens program följer vi utvecklingen i Saudiarabien. Den unge kronprinsen Mohammed bin Salman, som är den som i verkligheten styr landet, har rest jorden runt för att marknadsföra bilden av ett nytt och modernt land. Han har tillåtit kvinnor att köra bil och begränsat den religiösa polisens befogenheter. Jerry Maher, journalist från Libanon, bosatt i Sverige förklarar i en intervju med Konflikts Abdelaziz Maaloum att han stödjer det saudiska kungahusets nya öppenhet. Han anser att Saudiarabien för en klok politik och kan tjäna som modell för hela arabvärlden. De som sitter fängslade och riskerar att avrättas anser han är spioner. Men det finns en grymmare verklighet. Människorättsorganisationerna Amnesty international och Human Rights Watch rapporterade i veckan om upprepade fall av tortyr och sexuella övergrepp mot kvinnliga fångar. Isra al Hramhram, riskerar dödsstraff för att ha kritiserat regimen. Hon har suttit tre år i fängelse utan rättegång, berättar Ali Adubisi, som i dag driver en saudisk människorättsorganisation i Berlin, för Konflikts Sharon Jåma. Samah Hadid, saudiexpert på Amnesty international i Beirut, hoppas att mordet kan vara en väckarklocka för omvärlden. Ekots tidigare utrikeskommentator Agneta Ramberg menar att efter mordet i Istanbul, har den fina bilden av kronprinsen krackelerat. Hon jämför honom med andra arabiska despoter såsom Iraks förre diktator Saddam Hussein. Agneta Ramberg pekar på Mohammed bin Salmans krig mot grannlandet Jemen, världens i dag största humanitära katastrof. Trots att den amerikanska underrättelsetjänsten CIA dragit slutsatsen att kronprinsen är ansvarig för mordet på Jamal Khashoggi så fortsätter USA:s president Trump att stå vid Saudiarabiens sida. Cecilia Uddén, Sveriges Radios mellanösternkorrespondent, har intervjuat Rami Khouri, professor i journalistik i Beirut. Han pekar på att saudierna spelar en nyckelroll för den storslagna fredsplan för Israel och Palestina som Trumpadministrationen har lovat att presentera. Men mordet på Khashoggi har fått konsekvenser, konstaterar Agneta Ramberg. Kanske kan kriget och lidandet i Jemen förkortas genom att världen uppmärksammats på kronprinsens agerande i grannlandet, och kanske kan också balansen mellan Saudiarabien och Iran förändras. Möjligtvis är det också så att en del av de avrättningar som har planerats i alla fall skjuts upp. En direkt följd av mordet är att de som tidigare försökt lyfta fram saudiska övergrepp, nu märker att omgivningen lyssnar på dem på ett helt nytt sätt. Det säger Ghanem al-Dosari, en saudisk politisk satiriker som i dag bor i London, till Konflikts reporter Abdelaziz Maaloum. Tidigare fick han ofta höra att han överreagerade.

Internationally acclaimed journalist and former member of the Brookings Task Force on US Relations with the Islamic World, Mr. Rami Khouri will analyze the complexities in Syria due to the convergence of three conflicts: the domestic battle for power between several government oppositions groups; the regional cold war spearheaded by Iran and Saudi Arabia; and the revived global struggle for influence in the region between the USA, Russia and China. Syria has become the main proxy battleground for these three conflicts. Events unfolding there also help shed light on the nature of the other citizen uprisings around the region, as they enter the middle of their second year in June.

The colonial spirit that drives white, Northern, European, American, military-industrial, racist, apartheid, Christian powers is still with us.”Palestinian-American journalist Rami Khouri, who is a Distinguished Public Policy Fellow at the American University of Beirut and author of the new book Understanding Hamas, has been reporting on conflicts in the Middle east for 55 years. “And the most striking thing to me in that entire period is what we're witnessing today.”This week the world is watching the potential face-off between an Israeli-American alliance against a new alliance of forces in the Middle East. Will Israel's assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Iran trigger a regional war?Khouri explains how the tumultuous history in the region brought us to where we are today, and he points a finger at not just nation states and governments, but Western media:“The mainstream media has played such a central role propagating the various lies and exaggerations and racist stereotypes that have kept this conflict going for so long.”And they don't just report on war. They profit off it. “We have to not be drawn into the CNN, New York Times, MSNBC fantasy world of cartoon-like diplomacy, and the projection of the US as the great provider of peaceful life and democracy in the face of these barbaric Muslims and Arabs and Iranians. This is a fantasy world that has been created in the West, and a lot of people made a lot of money out of it.”So we asked Rami Khouri: will all this lead to a new war in the Middle East?Subscribe to hear his full answer, plus how Israel has repeatedly rejected peace deals, the difference between Judaism and Zionism, how to properly understand Hamas, and the one way to end this occupation:“The Israelis have revealed, in all its ugliness, the barbaric, violent spirit that is their Zionist movement in the genocide in Gaza. There has to be an international mechanism to force Israel to do what it has never done.”Thanks for supporting independent media.
