Danny and Derek give a news update with where the conflict stands today. Then, for paid subscribers, they speak with Rashid Khalidi (16:30), the Edward Said Professor of Modern Arab Studies at Columbia University, about the larger implications of the war.
Will any of these be made available to the public? I really wish I could share these with friends without paywall. I understand not all episodes can be made free but I feel like these should be heard by as many people as possible.
Hi guys, subscriber here! Thank you so much for your coverage of the war and, as important, of the history. Shared your six-parter with Professor Khalidi in an op-ed directed at teachers that was published last week by PBS NewsHour Classroom. (I tagged you on social).
Is there any way to get a transcript of this episode?? At least of Professor Khalidi's part? I'm a high school history teacher, and his discussion of the role of armed struggle in liberation movements is outstanding - very clear, very accessible, and just throws things so powerfully into context. I would really love to be able to include in a lesson, so wanted to ask before transcribing it myself!! Thank you again!
Rather than accurately and completely describe their subject, the terms used manufacture permissions and consents, i.e. their object, and you can interpret what the political intentions are if you learn 'the language'.
Their 'intentions' do match their rhetoric in this sense. To refer to 'Hamas', separate from Palestine or Palestinians or Gaza or Gazans, describes non-Palestinian intention to manufacture permission and consent to flatten Gaza because 'Hamas is terrorist' and Israel is allowed to kill terrorists. But if instead we refer to the rampage that began Saturday as Palestinian, then flattening Gaza is genocide and the final solution to apartheid. Nevertheless, Palestinians did commit the rampage on Israelis and Israel is killing Gaza's Palestinians (Hamas and otherwise, and anyone else in the way), but they can't say it that way in public get away with the purge. The words being used do not describe the subjects, they describe the objectives of the speaker.
