On today's episode, Washington Post national security reporter and friend of the show, Shane Harris, joins Matt to discuss last week's historic prisoner exchange between the US and Russia, securing the release of several prominent journalists and pro-democracy activists. Shane dives into his reporting on the swap, detailing months of delicate negotiations, who the Russians got in return, and touches on the complicated question of whether these exchanges incentivize autocrats like Putin to take hostage more Westerners and journalists to extract concessions from their governments.

Israel's Attack on Palestinian Civil Society

In October, Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz declared six Palestinian human rights organizations to be “terrorist” groups. The targeted groups form the backbone of Palestinian civil society. Collectively, the organizations document Israeli human rights abuses and offer direct aid to Palestinians crushed by the Israeli occupation, whether it's farmers facing Israeli settler land theft or children detained in Israel's military court system. Gantz's declaration placed the organizations at severe risk, making their employees potentially subject to arrest for working in a banned organization. To learn more about what's behind Israel's moves and what it means for the future of Palestinian civil society, Senior Reporter Alex Kane interviews Palestinian American analyst Yousef Munayyer and Sarit Michaeli, International Advocacy Officer for B'Tselem, the leading Israeli human rights organization.  Articles Mentioned: “https://theintercept.com/2021/11/04/secret-israel-dossier-palestinian-rights-terrorist/ (Secret Israeli Document Offers No Proof to Justify Terror Label for Palestinian Groups),” by Yuval Abraham, Oren Ziv, Meron Rapoport “https://foreignpolicy.com/2021/11/05/the-long-arm-of-israeli-repression/ (The Long Arm of Israeli Repression),” by Yousef Munayyer “https://apnews.com/article/technology-business-israel-jamal-khashoggi-hacking-6bfc5bc992de7f33f5c8e969e69ce15c (Report: NSO Spyware Found on 6 Palestinian Activists' Phones),” by Frank Bajak and Joseph Krauss “https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/11/world/middleeast/israel-palestinian-nso-hacking.html (Palestinian Diplomats Targeted by Israeli Spyware, Official Says),” by Patrick Kingsley and Rawan Sheikh Ahmad “https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/interactive/2021/nso-spyware-pegasus-cellphones/?itid=lk_inline_manual_1 (Private Israeli Spyware Used to Hack Cellphones),” by Dana Priest, Craig Timberg, and Souad Mekhennet  Thanks to Jesse Brenneman for producing and to Nathan Salsburg for the use of his song “VIII (All That Were Calculated Have Passed).”

Australia's Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade has a new Secretary, Kathryn Campbell. Darren uses the occasion to build a theoretical model of the position, positing that the ideal candidate would fulfil four roles: administrator, consigliere, strategist and diplomat. Allan points out that the “diplomat” skill-set is unique to DFAT, discussing the history of the position not just in Australia but internationally, and some of the novel challenges every DFAT secretary will face. The two next turn their attention to a pair of recent cyber stories: the attribution to China by a broad coalition of western governments of the massive and indiscriminate hack of Microsoft's Exchange server earlier this year, and investigative reporting that surveillance software sold by the Israeli company NSO is being used to monitor thousands of individuals, from political and business leaders to journalists and activists. Is it possible to develop norms in this domain, especially given how extensively the US conducts its own spying? What is different (if anything) about these events, and can a rules-based order that regulates this behaviour be built? As the podcast wraps up, Allan briefly discusses the recent APEC extraordinary meeting, the first of its kind for the organisation. Can the vigour of hosts New Zealand breathe new life into a troubled organisation? Finally, exclusive reporting by the ABC suggests the Australian government is considering returning a presence to Afghanistan, which would represent a rapid reversal of the decision to close the embassy indefinitely just a few months ago. Why?

VORBEMERKUNG: Kim und Cathrin haben in dieser Folge den Nachnamen von Souad Mekhennet konsequent falsch ausgesprochen. Richtig ist: 2. Silbe betonen, nicht die erste. Wir bitten, dies zu entschuldigen!Souad Mekhennet wurde 1978 als Kind einer türkischen Mutter schiitischen und eines marokkanischen Vaters sunnitischen Glaubens in Frankfurt am Main geboren. Sie verbrachte als kleines Kind mehrere Jahre bei ihrer Großmutter in Marokko, in deren Nachbarschaft eine jüdische Familie lebte. Souad (auf Deutsch übrigens: das Glück) freundete sich mit der Tochter an. Sie lernte früh, Menschen anderen Glaubens, anderer Kulturen und Lebensweisen mit Respekt zu begegnen. (Ihre Vielsprachigkeit half ihr dabei sehr.) Doch nach ihrer Rückkehr nach Deutschland erfuhr sie immer wieder, dass ein friedliches Zusammenleben der Kulturen und Religionen nahezu unmöglich zu sein schien. Souad begann, Fragen zu stellen. Sie wurde Journalistin, arbeitete u.a. für die ganz großen Zeitungen der westlichen Welt (The New York Times, die FAZ, Washington Post etc.), investigierte immer wieder in der arabischen Welt, befragte u.a. einen Al-Qaida-Führer, und beschäftigte sich intensiv mit den Funktionsweisen des Jihadismus. Getrieben von der Hoffnung, Brücken schlagen zu können und zu vermitteln zwischen „den Welten“, die für sie im Herzen eine sein könnte. Aber am besten, ihr hört rein in diese Folge und erfahrt mehr über diese mutige, starke, bewundernswerte tolle Frau, die wahrlich ein Glück für den Journalismus in der westlichen Welt darstellt. Danke, Souad!

Souad Mekhennet is a national security correspondent for The Washington Post and the author of the national best-selling, "I Was Told To Come Alone: My Journey Behind the Lines of Jihad." Last month, she was named the 2017 recipient of the Daniel Pearl Award. In this conversation with her friend and former colleague, Don Van Natta Jr., Mekhennet describes her 16 years covering Jihad for the Post, The New York Times and other publications; the techniques she uses to gain the trust of sources, including terrorist leaders, and how she manages their expectations; where her immense bravery and courage likely come from. She also discusses several of her most renowned pieces, including one for The New York Times that she and Don collaborated on in 2005 about a German man's imprisonment and torture in an Afghanistan prison by officials believed to be with the CIA, as well as her most recent story, The Jihadist Plan To Use Women To Launch the Next Incarnation of ISIS. Their conversation lasts 59 minutes.

WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip, episode 169 at that! They are racking up aren't they... My my my... You may have heard Pip hyping this one up for a minute, and quite rightly so - ladies and gentlemen, please welcome journalist, author, writer, Souad Mekhennet! A huge episode here, as Pip sits down with Souad for a nice good while to really get into her own story... And what a deep, heavy and truly daring life she has led, from beginning to present day - hear her recall some chills-inducing tales and truly unique meetings, from getting in deep into situations with Isis commanders, her interview with 'Jihadi John', and her career covering all manner of terrorist activities over the years, and SO much more, made all the more fascinating due to her being Muslim and female, which positions her uniquely for her line of writing and interviewing. It's also fascinating hearing her thoughts on what creates a perfect situation for men to become radicalised, and how it can mainly stem from a broken family life. This is an absolutely gripping conversation, to which this writeup would never do justice, and it's a wonderful commentary companion to her book 'I Was Told To Come Alone', which you should (and I'm sure will) snap up at your nearest convenience.
