  • Weird Vocal Cadence

    Has the host had a stroke or suffers from dysphonia? Impossible to listen to without being distracted.

  • Encourages naive views of Israel Occupation

    The guest was allowed to drone on with zero ability to understand why 10/7 happened from a resistance pov and why it involved violence. It wasn’t a time to play nice. Doesn’t seem to have any clue about the last 75 years. Arrogant and unlistenable while also performing heroics of feeling enlightened.

    Liberal Zionism is just as bad as right wing Netanyahu Likud party Zionism. Listen to Norman Finkelstein, Jewish Voice for Peace, Not in My Name.

Gaza, The Great Game, and the Haifa Pipeline Scheme w/ Charlotte Dennett
Q: What could be more blatant than during the Trump administration regarding the divide and rule tactics?
It's horrible, yes. They are using aggressive nationalist rhetoric and policies to manipulate and divide people.
Gaza, The Great Game, and the Haifa Pipeline Scheme w/ Charlotte Dennett
Q: So what you're saying is, and I want to clarify on all of this, it seems that the Gaza post-war plan is essentially ethnic cleansing?
Yes, that is the gist, but it's not the only gist. There's another plan afoot.
