Palestine This Week: Time for Israel to admit defeat?
Manage episode 399855385 series 3551017
Hello listeners! In this jam-packed episode of Palestine This Week, we'll be diving into the dire and deteriorating situation in Gaza as Israel's assault continues into its fifth month.
With Israel under investigation at the ICJ for alleged breaches of the Genocide Convention, we’ll be asking why there’s been no restraint in its military operation since the World Court issued its ruling on 26 January and is it time for the apartheid state to admit defeat?
We'll cover the growing global opposition to Israeli apartheid and its genocidal war in Gaza, from protest letters by hundreds of civil servants to shocking revelations of pro-Israel bias within American news service CNN.
While also looking into how Israel's offensive has sparked wider regional unrest, with the US bombing targets in Yemen, Syria and Iraq in apparent retaliation.
Additionally, we analyse US President Joe Biden's recent executive order introducing punitive measures against Israeli settlements and what impact it could really have.
As always, I'll be joined by our regular guest Mouin Rabbani who will provide his insightful views on these pressing issues.
