![Sudan Infrastructure Collapse "There are no hospitals. There are no schools. There is no electricity. Clean water is scarce...I want people to understand the complete scholastic side in terms of education. No universities are functioning. I think you're familiar with where I'm going here. And I think people really need to understand, the comparison with Palestine is not a stretch. This is very, very important for people to understand. I mention it because it's more familiar to people and they understand that the destruction of infrastructure is not just something that we throw out there. It really affects everyone's lives and the inability of people to return to their homes." -Khalid Medani [Khalid Mustafa Medani] Connections Episode 113: Sudan, in discussion with Khalid Mustafa Medani hosted by Mouin Rabbani [Mouin Rabbani] 🔗Watch the full episode here:](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2085362255156170994/amplify_video_thumb/2084668732006072320/img/G1c10HlHS84A0h1r.jpg)

“The problem is not the Jewish presence in the holy land, it’s always been there. The problem is not high levels of Jewish immigration to Palestine. The problem here is the colonial agenda transforming an overwhelmingly Arab territory into an exclusivist and supremacist Jewish state which required the removal of the Arab population.” What Have We Learned? Israel’s Genocide — One Year On w/ Mouin Rabbani and Bassam Haddad (Sep 2024)

“Jews were not singled out as the exceptional minority in the 19th century Middle East. It’s simply not the case. There’s nothing analogous to the antisemitism of Europe. Don’t allow people to take talking points to distract from the suffering of the Palestinians or even worse, to pit Arab Jews against Arab Palestinians." What Have We Learned?

The liberal position regarding the genocide in Gaza was something like, 'Yes it's sad, but Hamas uses human shields,' says Adam Johnson, or 'They need to let in aid,' so they make sure Israelis are bombing children on 600 calories a day versus zero calories a day. This was the farce of human concern that liberals upheld for two years as Biden, Kirby, and Blinken all refused to ever condition military aid to Israel. 🎬 Connections Podcast Ep. 114 with Mouin Rabbani and Adam Johnson

"Zionism, for most of us who study it and have tried to continue to provide racial and colonial theory about it as a political ideology, as an intellectual and political bedfellow of apartheid, a similar kind of ideology, we have said in theory that the end goal of it, taken to its logical conclusion, is a form form of the complete erasure and removal of Palestinians. It is an 'unquenchable thirst,' in the words of Fayez Sayegh, for land in order to continue expansion," says Noura Erakat Noura Erakat on Zionism's logical end, first theoretically and today materially, in the genocide of Palestinians. What Have We Learned? Featuring Noura Erakat and hosted by Bassam Haddad (Bassam Haddad). September 2024

"I'll take the Israeli press over the US press any day of the week," says Mouin Rabbani. "It has much better information on these issues not only because they're speaking about their own crimes in their own society, but the US press has this absolutely totalitarian attitude: You can't name the perpetrator if it's Israel, you have to use the passive voice." Mouin Rabbani says coverage in Israel is more direct since a large portion of the population accepts and supports Israel's crimes, whereas the US press needs to constantly mask and cover-up for an American audience.

“Edward Said taught me most powerfully was that the reason that people construct ‘the other’ is so they can define themselves, and I feel like what Palestinians make clear to these states and powers in Western Europe and North America is the depth of their own not just complicity but brutality in valuing certain lives over other lives.” What Have We Learned? w Sherene Seikaly Sherene Seikaly hosted by Bassam Haddad Bassam Haddad Watch the full episode here

Palestinians have always been "evacuated from the category of civilian," says Noura Erakat. Lebanese and Palestinian civilians have been consistently targeted by Israel, even when international law dictates that women, children, and men who are not in combat are excluded from being struck in times of war. On Eid al Adha eve, as people were celebrating whatever was left to celebrate after two years of genocide, Israel struck at the heart of a residential building in Gaza, killing six people and injuring 20, DURING a ceasefire. Yesterday in Lebanon, Israel killed 40 people and sent evacuation orders to nearly 50 towns in south Lebanon, DURING a ceasefire. This is what it means to be denied the universally protected category of civilian when Israel is your adversary.

“What we’ve learned about Palestinians is the duality of their invisibility and their power," says Noura Erakat. "They are not recognized as made of flesh, that they have a life of dignity and a normal life to return to, that mothers grieve, that fathers grieve, that there is love for one another."
