/370/ Dead Ends in Israel & Palestine ft. Alex Gourevitch
Added 2023-10-20 14:32:42 +0000 UTCOn violence and the lack of political resolution.
Regular guest Alex Gourevitch joins us to discuss why the Israel/Palestine conflict is so intractable – and why it draws so much attention. Alex then explains why, lamentably, there is no side worth choosing.
We also delve into various other key points:
- why Hamas was becoming irrelevant and how the 7 October attack was an attempt to combat that;
- why violence is necessary but the Palestinians are in a catch-22;
- how the West is implicated in the violence and callousness on show;
- why the Palestinians are the most oppressed and forgotten people;
- why Hamas is not an anticolonial freedom struggle; and
- what is the right way to compare this to Ukraine.

2023-10-30 22:54:15 +0000 UTCAmazing that even the Bungacast audience shares the most retarded and at the same time most undisputedly shared consensus of the anglosaxon left, which is that a literally fascist militia with the declared goal and every day praxis of murdering jews somehow deserves our understanding and even sympathy whereas the jewish state is fundamentally illegitimate.
