Let's Talk Palestine - Breaking the Gaza Siege - Freedom Flotilla ft. Rifat Odeh
play

05/20/24 • 34 min

Director of the documentary The Truth: Lost at Sea, and survivor of the Freedom Flotilla massacre, Rifat Odeh, takes us through his experience on the boat that attempted to break the siege and deliver much needed humanitarian aid to Gaza. We begin by asking the question why a humanitarian mission was necessary, before developing into the dark scenes that the Israeli military unfolded on the aid workers, as well as diving into the propaganda machine that attempted to save Israel's image. This comes during a crucial time where a new flotilla looks to leave for the same mission to Gaza in 2024. The Documentary, The Truth: Lost at Sea produced by Rifat Odeh: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXgc6hFKqzI&rco=1

Let's Talk Palestine - The 100 Year History of Israel-Palestine
play

11/12/23 • 88 min

The history of Israeli colonisation of Palestine is often described as too complicated to learn, and so when looking at events that occur in contemporary Palestine, everything lacks necessary context. In this episode of the Let's Talk Palestine Podcast, we try to give you a simplified description of key events that have occurred since the colonisation of Palestine began. Namely, we'll be taking you through the origins of the Zionist movement, the colonial period under the British Mandate, the Nakba (Palestinian Catastrophe), as well as more modern history such as the 1967 war, and the Oslo Accords.

Let's Talk Palestine - Let's Talk Hezbollah ft. Joseph Daher
play

11/22/24 • 71 min

In September, Israel violently escalated its offensive against Lebanon, allegedly aiming to destroy the anti-Zionist resistance group and political party, Hezbollah, for its support for Palestine and anti-genocide intervention. This is not the first time Israel aimed to destroy Lebanon’s only defense against Israeli hegemony, nor even the second.

In this episode, we explore the factors that shaped Hezbollah’s formation, its extensive social, economic, and political role within Lebanese society, and its regional posture and relations. To answer these questions, we sat down with Dr. Joseph Daher, author of “Hezbollah: Political Economy of the Party of God”, who shared expert insights into the complex political, social, and economic dimensions of Hezbollah’s influence.

This episode will be valuable to all listeners, whether you’re a Lebanon expert or this year was the first time you heard of Hezbollah.

*Disclaimer: Let’s Talk Palestine is strictly non-partisan and does not endorse any political party or figure in any country as a matter of policy.

Forced displacement, mass incarceration, guns for votes. The Israeli government is currently taking advantage of the fact that everyone's eyes and ears are fixed on the Gaza Strip by accelerating its own agenda in the West Bank to completely ethnically cleanse it. All of these details (+ more) are discussed in this episode so that we can shed light and expose the Zionist state for what it is; a genocidal, settler-colonial regime. Join us!
