It's hunger which risks killing most Palestinians, not bombs and bullets. Israel is using hunger as a weapon of war - and Israeli claims there are no food crisis in Gaza is a grotesque lie. A terrible famine may beckon - and even in the violence stopped now, immediately, many would still die. I'm joined by Alex de Waal, Executive Director of the World Peace Foundation, who has been writing about famine since the 1980s.Support this show <a target="_blank" rel="payment" href="http://supporter.acast.com/the-owen-jones-podcast">http://supporter.acast.com/the-owen-jones-podcast</a>.<hr> Hosted on Acast.

Israel's Lies Over Its Gaza Famine Exposed - w/ Alex de Waal

Owen Jones, journalist, author of Chavs and The Establishment, or "that left-wing idiot off the telly", is fed up with the establishment media. After all, it punches down, not up, blames minorities for all the problems in society, and, let's face it, often just parrots the government line. So this podcast is offering something different: speaking truth to power, giving the marginalised a voice, offering hope - and having a laugh along the way. From Michael Sheen to Judith Butler, Prof. Devi Sridhar to Noam Chomsky, Peter Hitchens to Chelsea Manning and Gary Younge to Stewart Lee, the interviewees couldn't be more eclectic. Expect documentaries, too, exposing injustice and going to enemy territory - and discussions with experts on everything from COVID dreams about the pandemic to the history of US-backed coups. We'll learn a lot - but above all else, have our optimism in a better world rebooted.
