On Palestine, It's Time for Progressives to Stop Reading From the Same Outrage Script and Support BDS
Added 2021-05-12 01:33:03 +0000 UTCIn this News Brief, we breakdown the entirely predictable cycle of media coverage, liberal handwringing, vague "progressive" outrage, and why the most recent "clashes" should compel nominal progressive leaders like Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to formally support BDS.

Thanks for keeping these news briefs coming and cutting through the bs!

2021-05-14 15:10:13 +0000 UTCIlluminating episode. Is there a good, readable book that the lay person can use to understand where we are in the Israel-Palestine conflict? Or a documentary? I read Fateful Triangle a while ago, but it was mostly about media coverage of the issue

2021-05-13 11:58:10 +0000 UTCI really like your news briefs, and this one especially. At this point anger is the only appropriate response to the disingenuous hand wringing about this sad sad affair. Nice to listen to something where people are as fed up as they should be.
2021-05-12 05:46:16 +0000 UTCI got an notification from Bloomberg saying that Israel and Gaza were on the edge of war. It seems so strange to impart an open air prison some capacity to wage war against a American backed and funded nuclear power.
