Israel’s drone strike on Gaza Flotilla: MEMO in conversation with Ann Wright
The Gaza-bound aid ship Conscience was attacked by Israeli drones in international waters last week, injuring several people and damaging the vessel. As part of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, the ship was carrying humanitarian aid to Gaza. For the latest on the attack, MEMO’s Nasim Ahmed speaks with Ann Wright, a former US Army colonel and diplomat who is a key organiser with the Freedom Flotilla Coalition.

Indeed, the Palestine Museum is no ordinary art museum. While […]

Resisting Erasure: Capitalism, Imperialism and Race in Palestine
One statement the authors make in the introduction to Resisting Erasure: Capitalism, Imperialism and Race in Palestine (Verso Books, 2025) encapsulates book’s essence: “We hope to de-exceptionalise the question of Palestine.” The prevailing concepts of the Zionist colonisation of Palestine do not consider the wider imperialist context. Religious conflict, the image of Israel upholding Western democracy and the humanitarian paradigm are either intrinsically flawed or, in the case of the latter, depoliticising Palestine and Palestinians. As the book makes the case for settler-colonialism and dispossession, Hanieh, Knox and Ziadeh state, “for settler-colonialism to have analytical strength, it must be framed as one form of the broader expansion of European capitalism.” The book shows how European colonialists justified their plunder of […]
