Greater of Two Evils

The Palestine Pod

This week Lara and Michael break down the results from the latest so-called election from the apartheid state. Usually in politics, you choose the "lesser of two evils" but the latest election shows a lean in the other direction. While still under investigation for his last term Netanyahu is back with a ghastly list of characters including far-right fascist Ben-Gvir. Michael details how Zionists have historically and continue to collaborate with Nazis citing a recent interview with The Electronic Intifada, and a book Secret Contacts Zionism and Nazi Germany. Lara details how Kahanists who are represented by Ben-Gvir took their platform from the Nazis verbatim. We memorialize the freedom fighter and Afro-Palestinian feminist, Fatima Bernawi. We end by covering the story of Shadi Khoury, a child brutalized by the occupation forces and held in detention, a familiar sequence of events for Palestinian children.
