April 01, 2024 This Week in Palestine - 25.03.2024-01.04.2024
Even during Ramadan and Easter, Israel persisted in its genocide in Gaza and wider war against Palestinians across their occupied homeland. But we did see international developments with a ceasefire resolution passing in the UN Security Council, as well as additional measures made by the ICJ in an attempt to force Israel to comply with international law. Join us for this short episode where we take a look at this and more!

With the genocide of Gaza continuing into almost half a year, it still often feels like we haven't reached the peak of the violence.

January 20, 2024 #9 - Debunking Zionist Talking Points
From the simple misconception that Hamas launched a war on Israel to the idea that Israel has an inalienable right to defend itself through carpet bombing, Zionist propaganda has flooded the discourse with ideas which, when gone through systematically and logically, hold no value. In this episode, we go through and debunk some of the most common talking points that Israel has used to justify its genocide on Gaza. Join us!

Building on our last episode, here we aim to delve deeper into the early contemporary history of Palestine between the late 19th century up until the Nakba in 1948.

November 12, 2023 #6 - The 100 Year History of Israel-Palestine
The history of Israeli colonisation of Palestine is often described as too complicated to learn, and so when looking at events that occur in contemporary Palestine, everything lacks necessary context. In this episode of the Let's Talk Palestine Podcast, we try to give you a simplified description of key events that have occurred since the colonisation of Palestine began. Namely, we'll be taking you through the origins of the Zionist movement, the colonial period under the British Mandate, the Nakba (Palestinian Catastrophe), as well as more modern history such as the 1967 war, and the Oslo Accords. Join us!

October 31, 2023 #5 - Israel's Crackdown Beyond Gaza
Forced displacement, mass incarceration, guns for votes. The Israeli government is currently taking advantage of the fact that everyone's eyes and ears are fixed on the Gaza Strip by accelerating its own agenda in the West Bank to completely ethnically cleanse it. All of these details (+ more) are discussed in this episode so that we can shed light and expose the Zionist state for what it is; a genocidal, settler-colonial regime. Join us!

October 28, 2023 #4 - Surviving 6 Wars on Gaza ft. Yara Eid
With all the videos and images being circulated online of the current genocidal bombing campaign of Gaza, can you begin to imagine what life during these times? Shortly before the onset of the latest massacres of Gaza, we spoke to Yara Eid, an activist and war journalist from the Gaza Strip to ask precisely this on a humanitarian level. Additionally, we spoke about other issues such as desensitisation of violence but also simply how growing up in the Gaza Strip looks like. Join us!

October 22, 2023 Let's Talk the Untold Stories of Gazans
What is life like in the Gaza Strip up until now? To fully understand the current situation unfolding in Gaza, being able to visualise the brutal suppression on a personal level of the Israeli blockade in the world's largest open-air prison is imperative. In this episode, we take a look at this context with a journalist from the Gaza Strip who provides vital insights into life in Gaza before the genocide that is currently taking place. Join us!
