Podcast by Jasim Al-Azzawi with Col. Lawrence Wilkerson: Has Trump permitted Netanyahu to use nuclear against Iran?

Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, former Chief of Staff of the late U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell, will clarify whether President Trump has permitted Netanyahu to use nuclear weapons against Iran and, if such a green light was given, whether it came with strict U.S. operational control over targeting, or has Washington essentially surrendered red lines and strategic control to Israel?

  MEMO in Conversation with Benjamin Moser
  
  In this episode of MEMO Conversations, we speak with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Benjamin Moser about his book Anti-Zionism: A Jewish History. We explore one of the book’s central arguments: Jewish opposition to Zionism has a long history, yet many of the people who voiced it have been written out of the story. We also discuss the history of Arab Jews and what it reveals about the idea that Jews and Arab have always been in conflict. Our conversation asks what this history can teach us at a time when opposition to Zionism is often conflated with anti-Semitism. MORE >>> MEMO in Conversation With

  Three Years of Genocide: What Gaza Has Exposed | Palestine This Week
  
  On the third anniversary of 7 October, we look back on three years of the Gaza genocide. We ask what the genocide has revealed about Israel, about the Western powers that have backed it, and about the international system that has failed to stop it. We also ask what these three years mean for Palestinians and their struggle against apartheid.
