Palestine This Week: Is the Israeli government falling apart?

Middle East Monitor

The Jewish Chronicle in the UK, the world's oldest Jewish paper, has been accused of peddling misinformation in an effort to garner support for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's genocidal war on Gaza, is this further proof that Tel Aviv hasn't been able to achieve its declared goals in Gaza?


In this episode of MEMO's weekly review, host Nasim Ahmed and guest Mouin Rabbani discuss the latest round of killing of Israeli hostages by their own government. They examine Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammad Mustafa's ambitious 'day-after' plan for Gaza, while also exploring what UNRWA chief Philippe Lazzarini has described as the systematic targeting of the agency's infrastructure and staff.

The conversation turns to the internal political tensions in Israel, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly considering the dismissal of Defence Minister Yoav Gallant over disagreements on military strategy. The podcast then examines the shocking revelations that Israel is offering residency status to African asylum seekers in exchange for participating in dangerous military operations in Gaza and the purported proposal to Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar for safe passage out of Gaza.

Wrapping up the episode, Ahmed and Rabbani tackle media ethics and international diplomacy. They critically analyse the accusations against the UK's Jewish Chronicle newspaper of becoming a propaganda tool for Netanyahu, and reflect on the fourth anniversary of the Abraham Accords and their impact on the Middle East.

The episode offers listeners a clear and incisive analysis into the latest stage of Israel’s ethnic cleansing and genocide in Palestine.
