In this video, we discussed with Mouin Ranbani about his thoughts on the ongoing events in Gaza. We asked Mouin about the cease fire plan proposed by the Biden administration. We also asked him about the situation in Israel-Lebanon border. Mouin also commented on whether non violence is the only strategy of resistance available to the Palestinians. We also discussed the roles and responsibilities of the internationalcommunity, including pro Israeli government like that of the US and Modi in India. Mouin discussed the significance of the struggle for Palestinian freedom and its links with democratic movements across the world, including that of the Global South.

Guys, we want to work full-time on this, but our financial woes keep us pushing away. If your wallet allows please drop us some support. We prefer the PayPal method since we don't lose half of the money, but you can also give us a super chat. If you are a large donor, we would obviously get in touch with you to give something back if we can. But if you can't no worries. Please like, share, and subscribe. That means a lot already

Always a pleasure to listen to Mouin. He is so sensible, clear and calm.

This gentleman guest is a brilliant commenter on complicated issues---especially (this) one!

[ingridhildebrandt]

Thank you Mouin Rabbani for your answers!

Thank for this most informative conversation with Mouin Rabbani.

I love Mouin Rabbani and we need more people like him, as well as Norm Finkelstein, Ilan Pappe, Gabor Mate, Haim Bresheeth, Sheri Berman, and so on... We are either for peace, love, compassion, mercy, humility, and integrity, or you lack the higher virtues and are for evil.

I love what Rabbani has to say!!!! He is so

[CW-xfli]

Thank you for always clarifying you mean the "American government". They absolutely do not represent the will of the people. Great episode. Mr. Rabbani is always a great source of information and analysis.

[jocelynevkb]

Thank you. Excellent analysis on a terrible crisis presented in a measured & dispassionate manner. An amazing feat, given the nearly 80 year-long tragedy Palestinians have endured with regards to getting their Sovereignty over their Land recognised.

[mattmyers]

Protesting on behalf of Palestinians was made illegal within Israel - why the watermelon became a symbol, since the Palestinian flag was ban in Israel.

Mouin Rabbani is one of the very best. So knowledgeable, incisive. And he has a way with words! Thank you both🙏🏼

.Wow!! Mr. Rabbani's take on israel/Palestine, coming with it facts I hadn't heard, or not heard in this way, makes one feel capable of thinking about the situation. Something about his calm assurance and lack of prophecy makes one's imagination open up. Maybe there is a way. Very grateful for the turn of this conversation, both men seemed so prime for discussion and so polite.
To make their parent's proud!!!

Mouin Rabbani has a refreshingly nuanced view of these issues. Always a pleasure to listen. I just want to point out that Israel has failed to 'wipe out Hamas' by various means for over two decades now. Given that fact, the old threat of continuing to attempt to wipe out Hamas should *not be utilized* to delay acceptance of the cease-fire formula. Women and children of Gaza are currently starving to death and a phase 1 pause in the killing would allow aid to flow. That should be the priority. Seeking some pie in the sky ultimate solution or unobtainable "guarantee" is a great way to use up the current international window of opportunity to take the *first step* toward peace. Similarly, the exchange of hostages/prisoners can not wait for the establishment of a *new leadership on either or any side* of the conflict. American attention in particular will soon shift to domestic politics and opportunity for forward motion will be lost soon. Just sayin...

Nice and rational observations as well as analysis from Rabbani. 👋👋🌺🌺🙏-bmd

[resurrectedone]

The world has woken up and seen Israel's true colors and the horrific atrocities they are carrying out against the Palestinian people.

[IHoMyPo]

Thanks for this. I always learn much from Mouin!

[babbsc]

Thanks, IGL, for bringing the esteemed Mouin Rabbani's objective exposition of the Palestinian plight. I particularly appreciate his view that the intrinsic moral right of the oppressed to engage in armed resistance should never be renounced. In my opinion, Arafat's renunciation of Palestinian armed resistance was the height of historical ignorance that the US is wholly untrustworthy and nefarious in its "foreign policy" and condemned Palestinians to decades of destruction. His observation that it is not for external players to determine Palestinian internal governance is spot on. I would appreciate a further interview that addresses differences among internal Palestinian political and military forces including areas of agreement and disagreement and possible consensus. It appears that Russia and China are working with Hamas and Fatah to that end.

[vivalaleta]

This guest is a national treasure. We've learned so much.
I had agreed with Blumenthal until the professor said that the Palestinians should decide who and what they are.

[SA-kmoh]

Thank you. Very interesting and informative discussion 👍👍👍
