We felt it was important to revisit and repost our episode on Palestine with Noor Al Ramahi from 2021, shortly following the 2021 Israel-Palestine crisis. This conversation was especially relevant during the days immediately following the 2023 humanitarian crisis in the wake of attacks on Israel and Israel’s military response bombings and evacuation order in Gaza and Palestine.
