About this episode

The Palestinian Authority is cracking down on non-state militias in Jenin on the occupied West Bank – find out why Fatah is fighting Fatah.

Israel is making incursions into Syria and bombing its weapons arsenal to bits – why is it doing this, and what does it mean?

Finally, the Kurdish-controlled area in northeastern Syria is coming into question. Raqqa, for example, is a majority sunni Arab city under Kurdish control. How will this be resolved in a new Syria?
