A Tale of two shootings

Lara E. and Mikey B.
About this episode

Lara and Michael break down the media coverage surrounding the massacres in Jenin vs the Palestinian resistance response. Unsurprisingly Israelis are humanized, and Palestinians are dehumanized. People received buzzing notification alerts from various news agencies the second a zionist is injured but Palestinians are murdered and maimed every day and nobody gets a notification. Michael clarifies where exactly the shooting took place because the media lied about the location. Lara breaks down the latest polling surrounding normalization with the occupation and Algeria and Mauritania come in strong at 99% opposed to normalization. We cover the life of Khalil Sakakini, one of Palestine's early intellectuals who kept a vibrant journal that tells us about the good times in his life like building and securing his house, to the bad times when the zionist militias stole his house and the apartheid state gifted it to a so-called feminist organization. Finally, we talk about a Holocaust survivor who has resigned from the Labour party after threats of expulsion for talking about his life experience of zionists collaborating with Nazis resulting in the death of the majority of the Jewish Hungarian population.
