    Victory for Iran, Permanent Pariah for Israel | Palestine This Week with Mouin Rabbani

    In this episode, we assess where the war with Iran stands at the six-week mark, examine whether Tehran is emerging stronger from the conflict, and consider where Donald Trump’s latest deadline could lead. We also look at the murky story of the downed US pilot, Trump’s admission that Washington sent weapons to Iranian protesters, the wider regional risks for the Gulf states, the striking critique of American power by the doyen of neoconservatism Robert Kagan, and what Israel’s moves in Lebanon could mean for the next phase of the war.

    Trump, Iran and Israel’s War Without End | Palestine This Week with Mouin Rabbani

    Is Trump really in control? In this episode, we break down the US and Israel war on Iran, the false intelligence and bad-faith negotiations behind it, the UAE’s harder line, the plagiarised report used to sell the case for war, whether Israel’s project of regional hegemony is coming to an end, and the growing backlash to settler violence.

    Israel’s Dystopian Vision: From Gaza to Iran | Palestine This Week

    We begin this week’s episode with a tribute to the late Palestinian historian Walid Khalidi before turning to the stories being overshadowed by the war on Iran. Muhammed Shehada unpacks what is happening in Gaza and the West Bank while global attention shifts elsewhere, and explains why rising settler violence and deepening Israeli control should not be ignored.  We also examine his report on Trump’s dystopian vision for Gaza, ask whether that plan can survive the regional fallout from the Iran war, and explore the disturbing similarities between Israel’s conduct in Iran and its genocidal war on Gaza. From Israel’s wider regional strategy to the religious rhetoric driving this conflict, this is a sharp and essential conversation you do not want to miss. Chapters: 00:00 Introduction & Overview 00:01:32 Remembering Walid Khalidi and his lifelong work documenting the Nakba. 00:04:10 What has happened while Israel and the US focus on bombing Iran? 00:13:15 What does Muhammed Shehada’s report reveal about the future being planned for Gaza? 00:23:12 Can Trump’s Gaza plan survive the war with Iran? 00:30:11 What similarities are visible in Israel’s conduct across both wars? 00:37:45 What does the war on Iran reveal about Israel’s wider ambitions in the Middle East? 00:47:48 Did the architects of 7 October foresee a scenario in which Israel would be fighting on so many fronts? 00:54:37 How are the US and Israel framing this conflict in religious terms, and how influential is that view? 01:04:46 Has Israel become defined by the toxic mix of ultimate victimhood, overwhelming power and impunity?

    America’s War for Greater Israel | Palestine This Week with Mouin Rabbani

    In this episode, we examine explosive new documents exposing Israel’s systematic ethnic cleansing in 1948 and trace how its unending quest for security has fuelled decades of expansion, war and regional upheaval. We unpack the assassination of Iran’s supreme leader, question whether Trump torpedoed diplomacy at the very moment negotiations were gaining traction, and ask whether Tehran's bombing of Gulf states is a strategic miscalculation. With Washington’s credibility fraying and uncomfortable parallels to the 2003 Iraq invasion resurfacing, we confront the stark possibility that the region is being driven, step by step, towards another devastating and entirely avoidable war. Chapters: 00:00 Introduction & Overview 02:31 Smoking gun: new documents reveal Israel’s 1948 ethnic cleansing blueprint 17:37 Security or supremacy? Israel’s relentless drive for regional domination 23:58 Regime decapitation? The assassination talk around Khamenei 35:27 War over diplomacy? Did trump bomb Iran to kill a deal? 40:58 Strategic blunder? Has Iran’s gulf gamble backfired? 46:27 Abandoned allies: Has Washington left the gulf exposed? 49:06 Iraq 2.0? Is the drumbeat for war on Iran following the 2003 script?

    Christian Zionism: the radical theology empowering an unchristian settler state | Palestine This Week with Mouin Rabbani

    In this week’s episode, we unpack the implications of remarks made by Mike Huckabee, the US ambassador to Israel, whose unapologetic defence of Israeli expansionism reflects the enduring influence of Christian Zionism on American foreign policy. We explore how this radical theological current has shaped political discourse and helped sustain Israel.  The discussion also examines the latest Lancet report suggesting Gaza’s death toll may be significantly higher than previously recorded. Finally, we assess the significance of the newly convened Board of Peace.

    ‘Common enemy’: the Epstein class behind Oslo’s failure | Palestine This Week with Mouin Rabbani

    In this episode of Palestine This Week, we ask whether the two-state solution has finally run out of graves to bury it in. As Israel tightens its grip on the occupied West Bank and rewrites the Oslo framework in real time, we examine the collapse of diplomatic illusions and the rise of raw power politics. We unpack the shifting narrative around Gaza’s death toll, Israel’s parallel aid system, Netanyahu’s Washington visit and growing fractures inside the US conservative base over Israel. And in a deeper dive, we explore the idea of a “common enemy” — from the legacy of Oslo to the emergence of what some are calling the Epstein class — and what that says about the global networks shaping the fate of Palestine. Chapters: 00:00 Introduction & Overview 02:03 How many burials can the two-state solution survive? Israel tightens grip on the West Bank 12:48 Oslo rewritten? Israel’s foreign ministry accused of historical revisionism 20:40 50,000 “militants”? The dangerous new narrative around Gaza’s death toll 28:55 Gaza’s parallel aid system: is Israel replacing humanitarians with the security industry? 35:47 Netanyahu meets Trump: Iran rift or green light on Palestine? 42:14 Smear campaign against UN rapporteur Francesca Albanese: who is trying to silence her? 49:15 Epstein, Oslo and power networks: what the files reveal about global influence 53:11 Cracks in the conservative base: are American evangelicals turning away from Israel?
