    Israel Loses Europe and America, Gains Somaliland

    In this episode of Palestine This Week, we examine the EU’s new Gaza initiative, claims that Gaza’s authorities obstructed the delivery of humanitarian aid, the escalating campaign against UNRWA and Washington’s attack on the International Criminal Court. We also discuss Ro Khanna’s detention by Israeli settlers, shifting US and UK political attitudes towards Palestine, Lindsey Graham’s legacy, the renewed Iran conflict and reports of an alleged Israeli plan involving Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

    Concentration Camps Inside a Concentration Camp: Israel’s New Plan for Gaza | Palestine This Week

    In this episode of Palestine This Week, we examine Hamas’s decision to dissolve its government and the wider implications of Trump’s so called peace plan, as Israel moves ahead with proposals for “controlled humanitarian zones”. We also discuss whether Hamas remains a major threat or has become a convenient justification for continued Israeli domination, before turning to new claims about 7 October, debates over just war theory, Zionism’s erasure of Palestinians, Mike Huckabee’s remarks in Jerusalem and reports that US officials feared Israel was plotting to kill Iranian negotiators.

    Inside the Collapse of Global Accountability for Israel | Palestine This Week

    This episode of Palestine This Week opens with Israel’s renewed push to promote the so-called “voluntary migration” of Palestinians from Gaza, asking whether ethnic cleansing is now being pursued without even the pretence of concealment. We also look at Trump’s proposed Gaza board and warnings that it could create a legal black hole for officials and contractors, before turning to the unprecedented lawsuit filed by ICC judges against US sanctions they describe as an attempt to punish and coerce the court. The episode also explores growing threats to journalism, from the UK’s State Threats Bill to double standards in how the media defines press freedom, alongside new revelations about the Hannibal Directive during the events of 7 October. We then assess whether Israel’s confrontation with Iran has punctured the myth of Israeli military invincibility, and close with Lebanon, where Israeli media figures speak openly about pushing the country towards civil war as part of a wider regional strategy.

    “The Jewish KKK” and the Catastrophe Jewish Critics Warned Was Coming | Palestine This Week

    This week, we begin with Hannah Arendt, the Jewish intellectual who warned that a state built without Palestinian consent would be condemned to permanent war. Her warning now feels less like abstract history and more like a description of Israel today: a militarised society, trapped in endless war and dependent on propaganda to justify the violence needed to sustain its project. We also look at the casual anti-Muslim racism used by Israel advocates to dismiss equality for Palestinian, the UN Human Rights Council’s findings on Israel’s targeting of children in Gaza, and the rise of settler violence in Hebron and around Al-Aqsa Mosque. The episode ends with Trump’s U-turn on Iran, Lebanon’s central role in US-Iran diplomacy and the pro-war commentators already trying to explain away another Middle East disaster.

    Is Israel Losing Its American Shield? | Palestine This Week with Mouin Rabbani

    In this episode, we examine whether Gaza features in the Iran ceasefire calculation, the crisis facing Israel’s security doctrine and its fear of US abandonment. We also discuss whether the Iran deal signals a deeper rupture in US-Israel relations, Al Jazeera’s shocking investigation into Israel’s abuse of Palestinian detainees and Israel’s strangling of the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank.

    100 Days In: Palestine, Iran, and the War Remaking the Middle East | Palestine This Week with Mouin Rabbani

    With the Iran war passing its 100-day mark, we take a bird's-eye view of what this war has truly revealed. From its roots in the unresolved question of Palestine, to the limits of US power, fractures in the US-Israel relationship — including reports of Israeli intelligence spying on American negotiators — and the crisis of Zionism itself, we ask whether this war has backfired on its instigators and made Palestine more central than ever.

    The Iron Dome of Lies: Rape, Ruin & Plunder | Palestine This Week with Mouin Rabbani

    In this episode of Palestine This Week, we examine Israel’s addition to a UN blacklist over sexual violence in conflict, Dr Nick Maynard’s harrowing testimony from Gaza and the wider backlash to evidence of abuse against Palestinians. We also discuss plans to turn Gaza’s destruction into an investment opportunity, tensions between Trump and Netanyahu over Lebanon, stalled ceasefire diplomacy with Iran and the UAE’s reported role in the regional war. The episode closes by looking at US efforts to integrate Israel’s military with its own, the Democrats’ refusal to confront Gaza’s electoral impact and Western crackdowns on critics of Israel.

    US 'Suicidal Empathy' for Israel as Gaza Faces Apocalypse | Palestine This Week with Mouin Rabbani

    In this episode of Palestine This Week, we discuss Mouin Rabbani’s Gaza Apocalypse, a real-time account of Israel’s genocide in Gaza and the decades of policy, international complicity and failed diplomacy that preceded it.  We also examine Israel’s plan for the occupied West Bank, described as a staged process of ethnic cleansing: first entrenching apartheid, then emptying rural areas, forcing Palestinians into cities and creating the conditions for mass expulsion. The episode also covers Mladenov’s Gaza plan, Ben-Gvir’s humiliation of flotilla activists, the normalisation of Israel’s far-right politics, US' "suicidal empathy for Israel", Trump’s efforts to link Iran negotiations to the Abraham Accords and reported US-Israeli moves to strip Jordan of its custodianship over Al-Aqsa Get your copy of ‘Gaza Apocalypse’ by Mouin Rabbani: https://orbooks.com/catalog/gaza-apocalypse/ Chapters: 00:00 Introduction & Overview 01:18 Key arguments of Gaza Apocalypse and why Mouin Rabbani wrote it 04:27 Who is Gaza Apocalypse for? 09:03 Writing books in the age of social media 11:40 Mladenov’s Gaza plan and the “Board of Peace” 21:50 From apartheid to transfer: Israel’s plan to ethnically cleanse the West Bank 26:57 Ben-Gvir, the Gaza flotilla and the Israeli far right 35:15 US “suicidal empathy” for Israel 44:25 Iran war negotiations, Trump and the Abraham Accords 47:56 US-Israel efforts to strip Jordan of Al-Aqsa custodianship
