Netanyahu snubs Trump on Qatar attack; Houthis’ new plan to overwhelm Israel


Benjamin Netanyahu has publicly contradicted US President Donald Trump by going against his assurance to Qatar that Israel will not attack its soil again. Netanyahu has made it clear that he would attack Hamas leadership in Qatar if they were not expelled from this gulf country. This comes amidst the Houthis firing more hypersonic missiles aimed at Israeli targets. Rifat Jawaid explains why Iranians and the Houthis are able to respond to Israeli threats despite their economic backwardness but the rich Gulf nations are having to accept humiliation.

 

Digital Genocide EXPOSED: Big Tech, Surveillance and Automated Killing


Episode 2. of Occupied Tech deep dives into the world of digital rights, surveillance and the escalating cyber warfare against Palestinians.

Host Paul Biggar is joined by Eric Sype, national organiser at 7amleh https://7amleh.org/ The Arab Center for the Advancement of Social Media. Together, they unpack how Israel routinely disrupts Palestinian ICT infrastructure with a “kill switch,” how Big Tech enables censorship and mass surveillance and how digital repression plays out on platforms like Meta, Google and PayPal.

 

Netanyahu’s gamble: Build greater Israel or make it a doomed pariah


“An Israel for all its citizens has disappeared, it has literally been extinguished, and it's a myth that Israel is a nice friendly state”

David Hearst, editor-in-chief of Middle East Eye, joins us on this episode of UNAPOLOGETIC to discuss what he describes as the ‘worst evil the world is witnessing’ in the 21st century. Hearst shares his views on why Israel’s genocide is not just intentional but ‘calculated’.

He also speaks about the UK’s complicity and how Israel, through its actions, has isolated not just the global public opinion, but former reliable allies such as Tucker Carlson and Piers Morgan, who are now among the most damning and articulate (if not necessarily sober and coherent) critics of Israel.
