TMB36 – Ross Clift – Probing Perspectives, Piercing Propaganda, & Pursuing Peace


Listen Later

In the 36th episode of The Mental Breakthrough, I welcome back Ross Clift for an in-depth and thought-provoking discussion on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. As we delve into the complexities of war, occupation, and terrorism, we navigate the emotional narratives that often pull at the world's heartstrings, urging a stance of division. 

We acknowledged the challenge of discerning the mainstream narrative, recognizing that its clarity often signals an underlying agenda. Yet, in its absence, we find a unique opportunity for critical thinking and introspection. Our conversation highlighted the fine line between mainstream and alternative viewpoints, underscoring the importance of questioning everything. 

This episode isn't just about taking sides; it's a journey towards understanding and growth. We examine the role of propaganda in shaping perspectives and the relentless pursuit of viewpoints that challenge the norm. It's a quest to choose love and peace over destruction, even when faced with the stark realities of war and hostility. 

Can pacifism be the answer? Can love truly conquer all? These are questions we grapple with, pondering whether a violent regime is doomed to self-destruction or if this cycle of chaos and renewal is the very nature of reality. 

I always come back to a fundamental belief in unity—that all is one. If you feel there are gaps in our discussion or have insights to offer, particularly where we tread into less certain territory, your input is invaluable. Join us in this exploration, and let's collectively discern truth from propaganda, shaping our understanding with open dialogue.
