In this interview, I delve deeper into the arguments I made to win a debate about the root cause of the Israel-Palestine conflict.
In this interview, I delve deeper into the arguments I made to win a debate about the root cause of the Israel-Palestine conflict.
The same day I debated the root cause of the conflict, the International Court of Justice heard similar arguments on the illegality of Israel’s occupation regime.
I argued against the debate resolution “The root cause of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is the Palestinians’ rejection of Israel’s right to exist.”
I spoke with Scott Horton about the historical context for understanding Hamas’s 10/7 atrocities and why Israel’s retaliation in Gaza meets the definition of genocide.
I spoke with economist Saifedean Ammous on The Bitcoin Standard Podcast to set the record straight about the history of the Israel-Palestine conflict.
I responded to arguments from a Zionist in this interview on the causes of the Israel-Palestine conflict.
In this interview, I explain the origins of the Israel-Palestine conflict, its root causes, why it persists, and what needs to happen for a just peace.
How the US government is part of the problem and not the solution when it comes to the Israel-Palestine conflict, the economy, and COVID-19.
The US has long supported Israel's illegal Gaza blockade, a policy of collectively punishing the civilian population of Gaza for living under Hamas's rule.
Despite my having explained the truth to them, Press TV misinforms its audience that the status of East Jerusalem under international law is "controversial" (it's not) and that the goal of the so-called "peace process" was to realize the two-state solution (it wasn't).
The calculation of Israeli policymakers is that they must forcibly repress any form of resistance to their occupation regime, including non-violent resistance like protests.
Supporters of Palestinians' rights should not make the mistake of equating the goal of the US-led so-called "peace process" with the two-state solution.
Contrary to the popular Zionist myth upon which the entire so-called "peace process" was premised, UN Security Council Resolution 242 requires Israel to fully and immediately withdraw its armed forces from occupied Palestine.
The mainstream media perpetually deceives readers about what the two-state solution is in order to manufacture consent for the US's rejection of it.
I spoke to Press TV about Israel's escalation of illegal settlement activity and why now is actually an opportunity for Palestinians to seek justice.
John Kerry hails the Obama administration's "assertive diplomacy" as though the US's policies under his two terms wasn't the opposite of diplomacy.
I spoke to a conference in Gaza about why the US government is the greatest obstacle to peace and how to see an end to Israel's occupation regime.
The key to understanding the significance of the recent UN resolution on Israeli settlements lies in a proper assessment of why the US didn't veto it.
The U.S. is pressuring the Palestinians to surrender to the demand to recognize Israel as a "Jewish State", which effectively means renouncing their rights.
In remarks to the press at Ben Gurion International Airport in Tel Aviv, Israel, Secretary of State John Kerry said that "neither peace nor prosperity are possible without security, and the United States will only support a final status agreement that makes both Israelis and Palestinians more secure than they are today." He then proceeded to illustrate how meaningless this rhetorical commitment to Palestinian security was by detailing the U.S.'s commitment to Israel's.
I am a truly independent journalist and Research Fellow at The Libertarian Institute whose work is focused on exposing dangerous mainstream propaganda that serves to manufacture consent for criminal government policies.
I'm the author of several books, including Obstacle to Peace: The US Role in the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict The War on Informed Consent, Ron Paul vs. Paul Krugman: Austrian vs. Keynesian Economics in the Financial Crisis, and The War on Informed Consent, which features a Foreword by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
Topics I have covered over the years include 9/11 and the "war on terrorism", the war on Iraq, the Israel-Palestine conflict, the role of the Federal Reserve in the economy, and so-called "public health" policies including vaccines and the COVID-19 lockdown madness.
The aim of my work is to empower people with the knowledge needed to see through the lies and to create a brighter future for our children.
