Let's Talk Palestine

From repeated Israeli ceasefire violations, to Trump's 'Gaza Riviera' plan, the future of Gaza and the rest of Palestine appears to hang in the balance. In this episode, we take a step back to go through multiple factors individually, piecing them together to paint a full picture of what the future holds for Palestinians. Palestinian analyst Rami Khouri joins us to give his insights for this episode of the Let's Talk Palestine Podcast.

2024 will be remembered as one of the darkest years in human history for the genocide in Gaza. As the new year arrives, and reports of a ceasefire agreement being all but agreed, it is time to reflect on the past year to be able to understand and possibly predict what the near future in 2025 will bring for Palestine. After popular demand, we welcome back Dr. Ramzy Baroud for this episode of the Let's Talk Palestine Podcast.

In this monthly recap, we take you through the two key moments of November '24. Firstly, we take a look at the details of the ceasefire agreement between Hezbollah and Israel, specifically looking to see whether it will hold, and if so, who does that make the winner of this war? Secondly, we briefly touch on the ICC's decision to issue arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant. What does this mean for them? Will all countries abide by the Rome Statute? Listen to find out more.

In September, Israel violently escalated its offensive against Lebanon, allegedly aiming to destroy the anti-Zionist resistance group and political party, Hezbollah, for its support for Palestine and anti-genocide intervention. This is not the first time Israel aimed to destroy Lebanon’s only defense against Israeli hegemony, nor even the second. In this episode, we explore the factors that shaped Hezbollah’s formation, its extensive social, economic, and political role within Lebanese society, and its regional posture and relations. To answer these questions, we sat down with Dr. Joseph Daher, author of “Hezbollah: Political Economy of the Party of God”, who shared expert insights into the complex political, social, and economic dimensions of Hezbollah’s influence. This episode will be valuable to all listeners, whether you’re a Lebanon expert or this year was the first time you heard of Hezbollah. *Disclaimer: Let’s Talk Palestine is strictly non-partisan and does not endorse any political party or figure in any country as a matter of policy.
