CNN Interviews Jadaliyya Co-Editor Noura Erakat on the History of the Palestine Freedom Struggle (18 May 2021)

By : Jadaliyya Interview

The Palestinian uprising has spread across all Palestinian geographies and across violent juridical and political fragmentations. Palestinians have called for a General Strike on May 18th to support what they have called the “Palestinian Intifada of Unity.” On this occasion, Jadaliyya Co-Editor, Noura Erakat speaks with Becky Anderson on CNN International’s “Connect the World” and emphasizes that the reason the Palestinian freedom struggle has been obscured is because they have been oppressed by Western civilization’s canonical victims but that that victimhood is not a blank check to victimize Palestinians. Noura also emphasizes that the Palestinian official leadership has been part of the problem and a new generation of Palestinians have risen up notwithstanding these significant challenges.

      Turkey Page Co-Editor Cihan Tekay Liu Speaks about "The Rise of the Strongman" on the Ideas Podcast

      Democracy is shrivelling and illiberalism is on the rise. We've been watching this unfold for more than three decades but the sense of urgency has, perhaps, never been so great. IDEAS hears from people on the frontline of the fight against rising authoritarianism — how they understand the struggle and what they're doing to survive it. *This episode is part of our series, The New World Disorder.

      «إسرائيل تواجه ردود فعل عنيفة بعد هجوم الشرطة على جنازة الصحافية شيرين أبو عاقلة»: مقابلة مع نورا عريقات

      بتاريخ 11 أيار/مايو 2022 أطلق قنّاص النار على الصحافية الفلسطينية المخضرمة، شيرين أبو عاقلة، والتي كانت تؤدي مهمة صحفية في جنين صباحاً. وبحسب عدد من شهود العيان الفلسطينيين، فإن تحقيقاً أجرته منظمة "بتسيلم" الإسرائيلية لحقوق الإنسان، يوضح أن المهاجم كان ضابط أمن إسرائيلي. على الرغم من هذه الأدلة والافتراض العنصري بأنه كان من الممكن أن تكون الجريمة نتيجة نيران فلسطينية، أطلقت إسرائيل حملة علاقات عامة لزرع الشك والارتباك في محاولة للتضليل وإعفاء إسرائيل من المساءلة. في هذه المقابلة، استُضيفت نورا عريقات، محررة جدلية، لدى شبكة "سي بي أس" الإخبارية لمناقشة موضوع التحقيق في مقتل أبو عاقلة، يوم الإثنين 16 أيار/مايو 2022، قبل أيام من ظهور مقطع فيديو آخر يؤكد عدم وجود نيران فلسطينية على الإطلاق وقبل إعلان إسرائيل أنها لن تبدأ تحقيقاً لتجنب المزيد من الجدل.

Jadaliyya Co-Editor Mouin Rabbani Discusses Escalating Clashes in Israeli Towns and Cities on Al Jazeera

In this 13 May 2021 interview with Al Jazeera English, Jadaliyya Co-Editor Mouin Rabbani discussed the growing civil conflict in numerous Israeli towns and cities between Israeli Jews and Palestinian citizens of Israel. The interview explains that the recent eruption of violence needs to be understood against the background of nearly 75 years of Israeli institutional racism against Palestinian citizens, with the state is, therefore, an active participant rather than neutral arbiter. Furthermore, the extremist gangs roaming the streets are also a core constituency of the Israeli government and their radical ideology has infiltrated many key institutions.
