This Week In Palestine

The genocide in Gaza isn’t just a tragedy—it’s a global business.  Over 60 multinational corporations are profiting from Israel’s war machine.  Weapons companies like Lockheed Martin and Boeing supply the bombs.  Tech giants like Google and Palantir provide surveillance and AI targeting.  Caterpillar and Volvo profit from bulldozers that demolish Palestinian homes.  Booking.com and Airbnb list ren...

Boycotting Israel is more than a consumer choice, it’s a moral stance, a global act of resistance, and a deeply personal message to Palestinians that their lives, dignity, and struggle matter. It is a rejection of complicity in a system that has, for decades, denied Palestinians their basic rights through military occupation, apartheid policies, and economic exploitation. By refusing to support co...

The power of people to break the siege on Gaza is undeniable, but it faces immense obstacles. From the Freedom Flotilla Coalition to global marches and solidarity campaigns, civilians around the world have risked their safety to challenge Israel’s blockade and deliver aid directly to Gaza. Imagine if every country sent a relief boat—hundreds of vessels carrying food, medicine, and hope. The sheer...

The question at the heart of today’s crisis is not just who fired the first missile , but who benefits from the war—and who pays the price . Is this truly a war between Israel and Iran, or is it, more accurately, an American war on Iran, with Israel acting as the frontline executor of a broader imperial strategy? Let’s look at the facts. On June 13, Israel launched a surprise air campaign targetin...

We now turn to a voice that has long challenged dominant narratives and dared to go where others won’t.

Recorded live at the Community Church of Boston, this talk comes on...

The relationship between Zionism and Judaism has been a subject of intense debate for over a century, shaping political movements, religious beliefs, and global perceptions of Jewish identity. While Judaism is an ancient faith and cultural tradition, Zionism is a modern political ideology that emerged in the late 19th century, advocating for the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Palestine. The...

TWIP-250608 The Future of Zionism: A Turning Point or Continued Control? Are we witnessing the decline of Zionism, or does its grip on governments and global leadership remain as strong as ever? This question sits at the heart of a growing debate, one that challenges the long-standing narratives of power, influence, and accountability. For decades, Zionist movements have shaped foreign policies, m...

The United States' unwavering loyalty to Israel has come at a devastating cost—one paid in Palestinian lives, displacement, and suffering. For decades, the U.S. has provided billions in military aid, diplomatic cover, and political backing, ensuring that Israel remains shielded from accountability, even as its actions in Gaza and the West Bank grow increasingly brutal. This loyalty has manife...

TWIP-250525 We are witnessing a profound shift—one that is growing stronger, louder, and more undeniable with each passing day. The global stance on Palestine and the Palestinian people is changing, breaking through years of silence, complicity, and suppression. Across nations, activists from all backgrounds, regardless of religion or political affiliation, are refusing to stand idly by. They are...

The UK government has undergone a significant shift in its approach to Israel since the Labour Party took office. Foreign Secretary David Lammy has notably changed policies on arms sales, international law, and humanitarian aid. One of the most striking moves was the restoration of UK funding to UNRWA, the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, after it had been suspended due to unproven Israeli alle...

The US has long turned a blind eye to the killings in Gaza and across Palestine. While global awareness of Israel’s crimes grows, the US and European governments continue to defend Israel’s so-called "right to self-defense," fueling outrage among people worldwide. Social media, news reports, and even some governments have amplified the outcry—this genocide can no longer be concealed by s...

The Killing of Palestinians is the plane of making Gaza uninhabited. Israel, both materially and rhetorically has made their intent to destroy the Palestinian people clear. One of the most renowned and courageous Middle East scholars, Norman Finkelstein, has assiduously documented the Palestinian Plight for decades and he joins host Chris Hedges Report. Finkelstein and Hedges asses the current sta...

The killing of journalists and paramedics in Palestine is a tragic and deeply concerning issue. These individuals often risk their lives to provide critical services and report on the realities of conflict. Targeting them not only violates international laws but also undermines the principles of humanity and freedom of the press. Such acts highlight the urgent need for accountability and protectio...

The disparity between life in stable regions and the existence of Palestinians under occupation is profound. For those in stable environments, daily concerns often revolve around personal goals, leisure, and the pursuit of opportunities. In contrast, Palestinians living under siege and apartheid face constant challenges to their basic rights and survival. Their movement is restricted by checkpoint...

Donald Trump’s plan to take over Gaza has sparked widespread outrage and concern, and for good reason. The proposal, which envisions the U.S. taking ownership of Gaza and transforming it into the so-called "Riviera of the Middle East," is not only audacious but also deeply problematic. At its core, the plan involves the forced relocation of approximately two million Palestinians to neigh...
