November 18, 2025 Project Censored 11.18.25
Eleanor Goldfield hosts this week’s program.

We start this week off with news that didn’t make the news from Sudan. Researcher and analyst Mosaab Baba joins us to contextualize the recent atrocities in El-Fasher, Sudan, highlighting decades-long power struggles not only inside the country but internationally as well. Mosaab explains the goals of these new imperialists and their genocidal beneficiaries, the importance of Sudan’s rich mineral and agricultural assets, and how the guns and money always lead to the familiar players of the UAE, Egypt, the US and Israel.
Next up, John Collins of Weave News comes back on the program to discuss news abuse, using a specific example in upstate New York to highlight how even regional media that did previously stand up to power falls in line behind the fallacy conflating antizioinism with antisemitism. John also discusses the Palestinization of the globe, and prescriptions for both media and media consumers on how to stay critically media literate in these critical times.
Notes:
Mosaab Baba is a researcher and analyst on Sudan, and has been a lead consultant for the Ayin Network (@AyinSudan)
John Collins is emeritus professor of global studies at St. Lawrence University and editorial director at Weave News. He is the author of the 2011 book Global Palestine, which explores the globalization of Palestine and the Palestinization of the globe.

Eleanor Goldfield hosts this week’s program.

In the first half of the show, Eleanor Goldfield sits down with Dr. Abdalhadi Alijila to talk about his forthcoming book Fearful in Gaza, an autobiographical work that details the lived realities, emotions, connections and contradictions of growing up in Gaza. Dr. Alijila remarks on the changing of academia, once the vanguard of progressive thought and action becoming ever more muted and intellectually impoverished. He speaks on the unending question of humanity, including how social media distorts our view, and the problem of dehumanizing by pedestaling what the occupation has buried beneath subhuman propaganda.

Next up, co-founder of Mutual Aid Disaster Relief Jimmy Dunson comes back on the program to offer up a perspective you wont hear on corporate media: how the Israeli Defense Forces target Jewish and Hebrew-speaking people. Jimmy shares his own experiences with this as well as the experiences of a colleague on a Mutual Aid Disaster Relief boat that sailed with the Gaza Flotilla. Jimmy discusses how his Jewish faith leads him to actively oppose genocide, how we can better be in solidarity with Palestinians and with one another while connecting our struggles as well as our efforts to build a better world.
Notes:
Dr. Abdalhadi Alijla is a Palestinian Swedish social and political scientist and science advocate. He is the author of Trust in Divided Societies: State, Institutions and Governance in Lebanon, Syria and Palestine and the forthcoming book, which were here to talk about today: Fearful in Gaza.
