‘Israel is one of the most important tools of US empire’ – Dr. Ghada Karmi on the Gaza genocide

On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Palestinian-born academic Dr. Ghada Karmi, author of ‘One State: The Only Democratic Future for Palestine-Israel’. She discusses how she was branded an anti-Semite and expelled from the British Labour Party under Sir Keir Starmer for writing against Israel, her interrogation by British police over a talk she participated in at a book fair for explaining the Palestinian perspective on Hamas, the massive crackdowns on pro-Palestinian dissent in the UK and Western Europe, why the real culprits are the heads of the American Empire for Israel’s genocidal carnage in Gaza and mass slaughter in Lebanon, why Blinken should be embarrassed over his performative ‘diplomatic efforts’ to negotiate a ceasefire in Gaza, the significance of Palestinian and Lebanese resistance against Israel as it is one of the ‘most important tools of empire’, why the two-state solution was initially supported by Palestinians and now serves Western interests, and much more.
