Podcasts about rasmea odeh

Pro-Palestine protests on the campuses of some of America's most elite colleges have resulted in hundreds of arrests and led Columbia University in New York to move classes online for the remainder of the semester. The pro-Hamas, anti-Israel protests at Columbia University, Yale, and New York University aren't just representative of an “antisemitic movement,” but a “fundamentally an anti-Western and anti-American movement,” Bill Jacobson says. Jacobson, a Cornell University law professor and the founder of Legal Insurrection and the Equal Protection Project, joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to explain who or what is driving the antisemitism on America's college campuses. Jacobson points to the activist organization National Students for Justice in Palestine as the organizing force behind the current protests. “They are an organization I have followed and written about for well over a decade,” Jacobson says of the pro-Palestine group. “They support terrorists. They honor people like Rasmea Odeh, who killed two Jewish students in Jerusalem.”Jacobson points to the ideology of critical race theory, which has spread across college campuses, for this rise in antisemitism. The related push for "diversity, equity, and inclusion," or DEI, is fundamentally anti-colonialism, Jacobson says, explaining that Israel is viewed by antisemites as “colonial occupiers.” The anti-Israel and anti-American sentiment likely will continue on college campuses, he says, because “unless you are going to change the faculty at these schools, unless you are going to change the fundamental ideologies which drive them, removing students from the courtyard isn't going to change a thing.” Enjoy the show!

Theme music as always by Brandon Payton-Carrillo.

On this week's show, we interview Juan Demetrixx, an organizer of Howard University Resist, and Jared Ware, journalist and producer of the "Beyond Prisons" podcast. Demetrixx talks about what he witnessed on the ground in Charlottesville a little more than a week ago. Ware highlights Redneck Revolt, one of a large contingent of left-wing groups that was present in Charlottesville. Later in the interview, Demetrixx and Ware share their perspectives on confronting or challenging white supremacists and the response of Donald Trump's administration to the violence in Charlottesville. The second half of the show is spent reading a statement from Palestinian American activist Rasmea Odeh, who had her sentencing hearing in Detroit. The judge refused to let her read this statement. She will be deported. And also, we highlight a settlement in lawsuit against CIA torture psychologists and pay tribute to the black comic and civil rights activist Dick Gregory, who died on August 19.

On today's episode of Loud & Clear, Brian Becker is joined by human rights and labor lawyer Dan Kovalik, and Brian Terrell of Voice for Creative Non-Violence. Steve Bannon, White House chief strategist is out. His firing comes on the day that Trump meets with the generals to discuss an escalation of the war in Afghanistan, a move which Bannon opposed. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been silent on his friend Donald Trump’s comments defending the neo-Nazis who rallied and carried out a terrorist attack in Charlottesville last weekend. Brian is joined by Max Blumenthal, journalist and bestselling author, as well as the senior editor of AlterNet’s Grayzone Project.A judge has ordered the deportation of Rasmea Odeh, a Palestinian activist who had her U.S. citizenship taken away from her. But despite this injustice, the struggle for a free Palestine continues. Kristian Davis Bailey, the founder of Black4Palestine who was in court yesterday with Rasmea, joins the show.

The Truth Report discusses radical women Linda Sarsour and Rasmea Odeh.

Hosts Rania Khalek and Kevin Gosztola break down some of the many social issues raised by the campaigns of Clinton, Sanders, and Donald Trump. This episode includes talk about Black Lives Matter activist Ashley Williams Clinton over her "super-predator" comment in 1996. We spend time on Washington Post Jonathan Capehart, who helped the Clinton campaign do damage control and even went so far as to defend what Clinton said about "super-predators" back in 1996. We also highlight recent developments with the closure of Guantanamo military prison and Rasmea Odeh's . Throughout March, as the election intensifies even more with primaries, we intend to post our interview and our discussion separately so we are not posting 90-minute episodes, which listeners cannot consume and appreciate in one sitting. By separating them, there will be more political discussion for our listeners to enjoy throughout the entire week. *Our interview with Vivek Chibber, a sociology professor at NYU, was posted separately.

Download PodcastTune in for an hour of news and information related to US held political prisoners and prisoners of war.Late last week it came to light that the prominent psychologists outside of the CIA shielded the program when the CIA's own health professionals repeatedly criticized the torture involved in that agency's post-Sept. 11 so-called interrogation program. As this news comes out, where are the health professionals on the torture of solitary confinement in US prisons? Many political prisoners have been held in solitary confinement for decades although the international community views it as torture. Palestinian Political Prisoner Rasmea Odeh was "sentenced to eighteen months in prison and a fine of one thousand dollars for lying on an immigration and citizenship application." The Federal prosecutor in the case used a confession Rasmea Odeh made in a 1969 “terrorism” conviction in an Israeli military court to prove she lied on her US immigration application by failing to disclose it. Odeh maintains that the confession was false and she only gave it after weeks of torture and sexual assault by the Israelis. She is appealing her conviction and remains free on bond.Artist/activist Brandan "Bmike" Odums recently created a large mural to bring attention to Albert Woodfox's plight. Woodfox is one of the prisoners known as the Angola 3, he is the last remaining member behind bars after being wrongfully convicted of the murder of a prison guard in the 1970s. The three men, Woodfox, Robert King and Herman Wallace started a prison chapter of the Black Panther Party and organized prisoners to stand up for their human rights. Family and advocates want supporters of former Black Panther member Robert Seth Hayes to continue to call in for his health campaign. Get details from our pinned post on our Facebook page Political Prisoner Radio.

This week’s episode of “Unauthorized Disclosure” features an interview with Alka Pradhan, who is a DC counsel for Reprieve US and primarily represents prisoners who remain in indefinite detention at Guantanamo Bay. The organization has represented a number of detainees who were once in CIA custody and tortured. Pradhan shares her reactions to reading the torture report summary and what details stunned her. She breaks down some of the broader aspects of the report and outlines what effect the new information might have on new efforts to achieve justice for torture victims. Later in the podcast, Rania Khalek and Kevin Gosztola continue to dig into what was learned about CIA torture this past week. For example, we confront the  of "rectal rehydration" on detainees. We also recorded an additional twenty minutes of material to talk about a USAID contractor trying to help the US government the Cuban government by co-opting the hip-hop underground scene. Palestinian American organizer Rasmea Odeh's  until her sentencing is highlighted as well.

Kevin Gosztola and Rania Khalek are joined by one of the attorneys for Palestinian American organizer Rasmea Odeh, who was convicted of an immigration fraud offense in Detroit on November 10. She was immediately arrested and jailed after the judge revoked her bond and will be in detention until her sentencing on March 10.  Deutsch provides background on who she is, why the government knew who she was and allowed her into the United States, how she was torture victim who had been abused by Israeli forces, how the judge gutted Odeh's defense and sought to protect Israel and how the prosecutors, in many ways, pursued this like a terrorism case.  In the discussion portion after the interview, we discuss the UN Committee Against Torture proceedings with the US delegation, journalists Max Blumenthal and David Sheen possibly being banned from German parliament, a Navy war games exercise threatening national park land with electromagnetic radiation and a US Marshal's Service dragnet spy program intercepting phone communications.    

For this week’s episode, Kari (back from hiatus) and Chuks take on the idea of “Asian Privilege.” Why do so many people, from white people to People of Color, believe and propagate this idea? But first: Michael Brown’s parents are to stand at the U.N. and the circus surrounding Rasmea Odeh’s trial. Listener questions this week come from rosieisrising with regards to why someone would chose to partake in the imperialist machine that is the U.S. armed forces and givingyoutheflick about Australia.

We talk with Professor Nadine Naber, author of Arab America: Gender, Cultural Politics and Activism, about the case against Chicago feminist community leader Rasmea Odeh.  A torture survivor, Odeh now faces ten years in U.S. prison and loss of her citizenship because of her conviction by an Israeli military court 40 years ago.  Then, author Sheila Bapat speaks about domestic worker organizing in the U.S. and the history of U.S. policy toward domestic labor. The post Women's Magazine: Labor Day Focus on Immigrant Women – September 1, 2014 appeared first on KPFA.

Kevin Gosztola of Firedoglake.com and independent journalist Rania Khalek are joined by Hatem Abudayyeh, who is a national coordinating committee member for the US Palestinian Community Network. He has been involved in organizing demonstrations in Chicago in support of Palestinians and against Israel's ongoing assault on Gaza. He also had his home raided by the FBI in 2010 (along with 22 other activists) for his engagement in Palestinian solidarity activism and remains under a cloud of investigation that the Justice Department refuses to bring to an end, even though he has not been indicted or charged with any crime. Abudayyeh discusses how the police handle Palestinian supporters versus the supporters of Israel, the upper-class gun-toting Zionist who was arrested in Chicago, efforts to suppress Palestinian solidarity activism and also the political case of Rasmea Odeh, who is a Palestinian on trial for alleged immigration fraud Later, Khalek provides an update on Gaza and the West Bank. Gosztola highlights how CIA director John Brennan and former CIA officials are plotting to discredit the Senate intelligence committee's torture report and The Intercept's story on the National Counterterrorism Center's criteria for placing people on government watchlists.
