/409/ Palestine, Protest, Repression: The Wider Context

Informações:

Synopsis

On US campus protest, the brutalisation of Gaza, and whether this is an age of war.   Join us: patreon.com/bungacast   Bunga boys Alex, George and Phil debate the matter of the day. We ask: Is the police repression and associated censorship (the anti-semitism bill) a reflection of the fact the content of the protest unsettles the establishment? Why? Why is the Left breaking with Biden and the Dems over this and not before? How do these student protests compare to BLM? And how do they compare to those of the late 60s and Vietnam? What should those in Western countries do in response to Israel’s war? Is the Palestinian struggle dead? What are the risks of regional war? And does Israel's assault on Gaza presage a new era of warfare?   Links: The Triumph of American Idealism, Alex Hochuli, Damage Like it or not, the politics of war is upon us, David Jamieson, Conter Express Train to Nowhere: Class and the Crisis of the Modern Jewish Soul, Samuel Biagetti, American Affairs  Is this How We Can
