🎧 This episode reflects on Avi Shlaim’s Genocide in Gaza, a book written in the midst of ongoing devastation rather than after its dust has settled. It examines Shlaim’s argument that Gaza should be understood not as a recurring humanitarian emergency but as the product of a long-standing political logic rooted in siege, domination, and settler colonial control. Drawing on history, international law, and the lived realities of occupation, the episode explores how violence is normalised, how legal language is used to manufacture impunity, and why naming what is happening matters before denial hardens into record.
