Starvation. Mass death. Children wasting away on camera. And still, no consequences.

Rania Khalek is joined by Abby Martin to expose the full horror of Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza, the complicity of liberals who stay silent or worse, and the surreal reality in which Marjorie Taylor Greene, Candice Owens and Tucker Carlson speak out. 

They also dig into the renewed media focus on Jeffrey Epstein, and what the mainstream won’t say about his ties to Israeli intelligence and elite blackmail.

Pulitzer Prize-winning Palestinian writer and poet Mosab Abu Toha joins Rania Khalek on Dispatches to discuss Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon of war in Gaza. 

From the mass famine unfolding across the Strip to his own brutal detainment by Israeli forces, Mosab shares what it means to survive genocide and to bear witness to it in real time. They also explore the Western world’s complicity, the dehumanization of Palestinians in media and politics, and the role of art, poetry, and truth-telling in the face of extermination.

Israel has turned Gaza into a giant kill zone, with hundreds of Palestinians — including many children — gunned down while trying to collect food at so-called “humanitarian” distribution centers. With the help of Corporate America, the genocide has been operationalized, normalized, and broadcast in real time.

Craig Mokhiber joins Rania Khalek live on Dispatches to discuss the method behind Israel’s madness, the collapse of international law, the U.S. sanctioning UN officials while de-listing former al-Qaeda leaders, Israel’s plan to herd Palestinians into Rafah, the war on Iran, and the global war on free speech.

They also highlight a rare bright spot: the public’s shifting opinion on Palestine, marked by Zohran Mamdani’s stunning victory in NYC despite a smear campaign.

The conversation also previews the upcoming Dispatches documentary featuring Craig, dropping later this week.

The U.S. has officially joined Israel’s war on Iran, bombing Iranian nuclear sites and obliterating what was left of the nuclear talks. With Trump hinting at regime change, the world is now watching to see how Iran will respond.

Is this the end of diplomacy? Does Iran now view nuclear weapons as the only way to deter U.S. and Israeli aggression? Can Iran survive?

Rania Khalek is joined by Trita parsi, Executive Vice President of the Quincy Institute, for a special live episode of Dispatches to break down what the strikes mean, the geopolitical fallout, and whether the path ahead now leads to wider war.

As Israel’s war on Iran escalates, the media continues to flip the script—framing Israel as the victim and Iran as the aggressor, despite Israel initiating the conflict with bombings, assassinations, and covert attacks.

In this special live episode of Dispatches, Rania Khalek is joined by political analyst Assal Rad to expose the media’s double standards, the U.S. role in orchestrating the war under the false pretense of diplomacy, and the bigger geopolitical consequences of this growing conflict.

They also discuss Trump’s broken promises, the collapse of international law, the failure of strategic patience, and what may come next if the U.S. directly joins Israel’s war.

As Israel commits a live-streamed genocide in Gaza, Western media and political elites continue to center one narrative: Jewish fear. But what about the actual victims of this genocide—Palestinians?

Journalist Nora Barrows-Friedman joins Rania Khalek on Dispatches for a fearless conversation on Zionist indoctrination in the Jewish diaspora, how antisemitism is being weaponized to silence critics of Israel, and how Jewish identity politics has been manipulated to cover for unspeakable crimes.

From the media blackout on Israeli war crimes to the erasure of anti-Palestinian hate crimes—even in the diaspora—Nora lays bare the contradictions and power structures behind it all.

Israel has launched an all out war on Iran, with hundreds of strikes accross the country on military, nuclear and civilian infrastructure as well as assassinations of military commanders and scientists. This shocking escalation comes as the U.S. publicly distances itself, even as prominent American politicians cheer it on and while Washington pretended to pursue nuclear negotiations with Tehran.
Veteran war correspondent Elijah Magnier joins Rania Khalek for a special live episode of Dispatches to break down what just happened, what’s coming next, and whether the region is now spiraling into all-out war.

Zionism didn’t just dispossess Palestinians, it also helped destroy centuries-old Jewish communities across the Arab world. Historian Avi Shlaim, born in Baghdad and now a leading voice in exposing Zionist mythology, joins Dispatches to reveal how Israel used false flag terror attacks, including Mossad-led bombings in Iraq, to force Arab Jews to flee.

In this wide-ranging conversation with Rania Khalek, Shlaim connects the founding violence of the Israeli state to its ongoing genocide in Gaza, challenges the myths of Israeli “democracy,” and says that Zionism has not only targeted Palestinians, but also betrayed Arab Jews and Jews around the world.

The internet wasn’t made to set us free. It was designed to surveil, suppress, and control.

On this episode of Dispatches, Rania Khalek speaks with journalist and author Yasha Levine to expose how Big Tech became the digital arm of empire.

From AI-generated kill lists in Gaza to Silicon Valley billionaires coding the future of authoritarianism, this is techno-fascism in real time.

Elon Musk works with the Pentagon. Peter Thiel builds tools for ICE. Mark Zuckerberg scrubs dissent while currying favor with Trump.

Gaza isn’t an exception, it’s a prototype. A beta test for how to rule the world through algorithm, surveillance, and automation.

Trump’s return is not just a political comeback—it’s a warning. As the tendency towards fascism gains strength in the U.S., what does that mean for the world’s most powerful empire? And what kind of resistance can actually stop it?

On this episode of Dispatches, Rania Khalek is joined by Eugene Puryear to break down what rising fascism looks like in an American context, from the weaponization of ICE to the collapse of international law in Gaza, and why anti-imperialism must be at the heart of any movement that wants to fight back.

They explore the legacy of US empire, the limits of liberalism, and the dangers of accelerationist fantasies as Gaza burns and the global order unravels.
