2024-06-24 Beyond the Rhetoric: Standing in Integrity: Norman Finkelstein and Daniel Maté     This conversation is released with the premiere of the documentary ‘Where Olive Trees Weep’, along with 21 days of talks on Palestine with leading historians, spiritual teachers, trauma therapists, poets, artists and more.

Beyond the Rhetoric: Standing in Integrity  With Norman Finkelstein and Daniel Maté

Political scientist Norman Finkelstein and author Daniel Maté exposes the lies and propaganda which obscure the reality in occupied Palestine. They will challenge the false narratives used to justify Israel’s brutal oppression of the Palestinian people, from the distortion of history to the whitewashing of war crimes in Gaza. They show how the dehumanization of Palestinians, the censorship of critics, and the perversion of antisemitism claims to silence dissent all depend on a scaffolding of deception that must be torn down. It’s time for intellectual honesty and unflinching integrity in the fight for justice in Palestine.

‘Where Olive Trees Weep’ is a poignant, heartbreaking film about the struggles and resilience of Palestinian people under Israeli occupation. It explores themes of loss, trauma, and the quest for justice. We follow, among others, Palestinian journalist and therapist Ashira Darwish, grassroots activist Ahed Tamimi, and Israeli journalist Amira Hass.  It features Dr. Gabor Maté as he offers trauma-healing work to Palestinian women tortured in Israeli prisons.

The program expands on the themes explored in the film and provides a larger historical and social context. Access to the program and the film is by donation.

2024-06-14 Israel, the ICC and the global structures of power | Norman Finkelstein | The Big Picture S4E12    We are living through a moment of social and political upheaval – one that has somehow aligned the Houthi rebels in Yemen, South Africa’s greatest legal minds and students across the wealthiest campuses in the world.  They’re all fighting for Gaza, and against an increasingly isolated Israeli government and its Western backers. So are we witnessing a historic tipping point?

Norman Finkelstein has documented the Israel-Palestine conflict for over 4 decades, with a particular focus on Israel’s actions in Gaza.  As the son of Holocaust survivors, he became particularly critical of Israel’s use of history as a propaganda tool to shut down critique – something he documents in his book ‘The Holocaust Industry’.  Since October 7, he’s been one of the most prolific voices speaking out – accusing Israel of carrying out a Genocide – and describing Gaza as a concentration camp.

In this episode of The Big Picture podcast, we speak to him about the value of international law, the historic turning point in Palestinian advocacy and his view on Israel’s moral argument for its own existence. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GeCzBHoKBY

2024-04-19 Palestine Talks | Norman Finkelstein   Activist, writer and public intellectual Norman Finkelstein speaks candidly about his early upbringing in New York City — raised by parents who were both Holocaust survivors — and how that has led to his tireless pro-Palestinian solidarity work, including his “forensic scholarship” of Israeli criminality and the related abuse of Holocaust memory.

Towards the end of the discussion, Finkelstein offers important though difficult advice to those who embrace “the values of truth and justice,” which — as he alludes — are ideals that do not come with any significant personal “reward”.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOdRk7Wptjg

2018-01-19 Norman Finkelstein: The “Big Lie” about Gaza Is That The Palestinians Have Been the Aggressors     Extended interview with scholar Norman Finkelstein, author of the new book, “Gaza: An Inquest into Its Martyrdom.” The book has just been published as Israel is facing a possible International Criminal Court war crimes probe over its 2014 assault on Gaza, which killed more than 2,100 Palestinians, including over 500 children.  Democracy Now! is an independent global news hourhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZGPZRkqJzY
