    Audio Article #99: Indonesia’s Clove Craze and the Tobacconomics of Kretek

    The new Netflix series “Gladis Kretek” introduces a western audience to Indonesia’s kretek industry. Clove cigarettes are part of Indonesian culture and despite the considerable health risks associated with smoking kretek, Indonesians are in no hurry to curb their smoking habits. The secret ingredient in kretek is the clove, a spice which fueled western colonization and trade wars. Today transnational tobacco companies like Philip Morris and Japan Tobacco compete with Indonesia’s cottage industry of local small-scale manufacturers. The powerful kretek lobby has successfully blocked Indonesia from joining the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC).

    Audio Article #98: Anti-BDS Laws: The Weaponization of Antisemitism

    The BDS (Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions) movement has gained traction and worldwide attention for its plea to boycott Israeli goods until the Jewish state abides by international law. The primary impact of such measures is hitting US brands. Although the nonviolent BDS protest has increased the pressure on Israel and those countries supporting and arming the Jewish State, Israel continues its attempts to counter the BDS movement by instrumentalizing law and weaponizing antisemitism.

    Audio Article #97: Women’s Rights and Wrongs in Iran: The Death of Mahsa Amini

    The expulsion of Iran from the UN Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) is one of many ways in which the international community is condemning the Islamic Republic of Iran for its treatment of women, especially in the wake of the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini in police custody and the popular protest movement that arose in response. The revolutionary movement demanding regime change in Iran continues despite violent crackdowns and executions.

    Audio Article #96: Interview with H.E. Ambassador Salah Abdel Shafi, Ambassador of Palestine to Austria, Slovenia and Croatia

    H.E. Ambassador Salah Abdel Shafi, Ambassador of Palestine to Austria, Slovenia and Croatia, gave iGlobenews an exclusive one-hour interview. He discussed the situation in Gaza, the future of Palestine, the ongoing war, the possibility of peace and the real danger of escalation. He stressed the dire humanitarian situation facing the Palestinians in Gaza. He raised key questions such as: will the West commit to international law, or will Israel’s western allies continue to shield it from prosecution by the ICJ and ICC? International law and international humanitarian law (IHL) is not a menu one can choose from--it applies to everyone or no one. Only a two-state solution backed by the UN and all UNSC permanent members can guarantee a lasting peace in the Middle East.
