The Palestine Pod provides the historical context that puts Israel’s crimes against humanity into perspective. They invite political analysts, humanitarian volunteers who have helped in Gaza, and historians to share their expertise and experience.

In Episode 129, hosts Lara E. and Michael B. discuss how the Israeli military has been luring African migrants to join in the attacks against Palestinians with the promise of permanent residence or asylum in Occupied Palestine. But according to reports by Haaretz no one knows what has come of these migrants after being dropped off in Gaza.

An economic perspective too: The episode, titled Israel’s Economic Collapse, discusses how the year-long campaign after decades of more covert attacks has ruined the occupying state’s economy. Intel revoked a USD 25 bn investment to build a chip plant in Israel, and tech firms — the most lucrative industry in Israel — have seen a 56% decrease in investment. 46k businesses in Israel have closed in the past year, with the number expected to reach 60k by the end of 2024.

The Palestine Pod is a good overview of the constant news coming out of Gaza, helping those who want to limit their exposure to heartbreaking information without looking away completely stay in the loop.
