Description

A discussion on recent events in the West Bank with activist, Anna Lippman of Labour 4 Palestine.

Anna helps tell Awdah Hathaleen's story, one that is sadly, a case study of how ethnic cleansing has intensified in the West Bank at the same time Gaza has been under siege.

Instead of F35s and armed drones, the Israeli authorities aid and abet settler violence to remove Palestinians from their land using tactics reminiscent of the Nakba.

How are the people of Umm Al Khair, Awda's village resisting? What can you do to help? What does this mean amongst new promises to recognize a Palestinian State?

We attempt to answer these questions, as well as provide related geopolitical updates and news from the movement.
