ICC Arrest Warrants and the Decline of Rules-Based Order

The ICC is a Western institution that has often been used to advance Western foreign policy objectives, such as the issuing of an arrest warrant against the President of Russia, premised on unsubstantiated and limited evidence. The impact of such a decision is thus politically emblematic as a Western institution, after 7 months of a genocide and the most gruesome war we have seen this century, has been coerced to issue arrest warrants against a key Western ally. The arrest warrant does three things: 1) It is a futile attempt to salvage the declining reputation of the Western "international rules-based order." 2) Undermines the current Israeli establishment. 3) Exhibits the mounting tensions between Israel and the U.S. The fact that an arrest warrant has now been issued against senior Israeli officials, alongside the ongoing ICJ trial, places all the more pressure on the U.S and its unwavering support for Israel. It further highlights the U.S's desire to get rid of Netanyahu and as such, to revamp Israel's image by placing a new "moderate" political regime in power.

The New Israeli Civil War: The US Choice Between Israel and the UN

So the basic premise of this discussion, as I see it, will be - The UN General Assembly wants to vote to potentially recognize a Palestinian State, which Israel desperately does not want. The US supports Israel unconditionally thus far, but if the UN, which is essentially a US construct which gives America geo-political legitimacy and influence around the globe, votes to recognize Palestine - the United States will finally have to choose between its two children. To back Israel no matter what and damage the legitimacy and marginal effectiveness of the UN, or compel Israel to comply with the creation of a Palestinian State, which could lead to massive civil strife in Israel and lead to its inevitable colonial dissolution.

The New Israeli Civil War: Secular Liberal Israelis vs. Right-Wing Religious Judeans

Will the Israeli State Survive to Celebrate 100 years? So it is currently May 14th, Israel’s Independence Day. And there’s a whole mess of contention about its long-term, existential survival. Will domestic fury and fierce civil strife cumber all the parts of Israel Proper? Israel does have a polarizing civil unrest problem on its hands, and statistics like “60 percent of Israelis believe the IDF isn’t using enough force in Gaza” give us outsiders that mistaken impression that Israeli society is a monolithic violent colonial entity, instead of a multipolar violent colonial entity that is incidentally experiencing a period of unprecedented socio-cultural fragmentation. So... eventual civil war? This is Part 1.

Pomona Divest Apartheid - Pomona College protestors setting the tone for Southern California Activism

With a long history of activism, Pomona College students live up to their reputation of never backing down from mobilizing against oppression. We conducted a brief interview with a PR spokesperson for the Pomona Divest Apartheid, a resilient on-campus pro-Palestinian movement that has only grown more determined and larger in student numbers and support despite the administration's heavy handed initial approach against its own students (and traditions) using local law enforcement as its mercenaries. Their message is simple: their college has no business investing in any entity that supports a genocide.

Israel's clandestine war against the American people - Episode 20: Wally Rashid

Most American conservatives support Israel but are completely unaware of Israel establishing Epstein's empire, their cultivation of corruption with our politicians, their alliance with and monopoly over the main stream media and Hollywood, their involvement in supplying tyrannical regimes (including our own) with surveillance technology, their psyop of manipulating the American church culture to believe that Israelis are the "ancient Israelites", and their cooperation with big multinational corporations in subverting the American economy. Patriotic Palestinian-American activist and entrepreneur, Wally Rashid, returns as guest to discuss why being pro-Israel is the opposite of the "America First" philosophy, why the conservative right in the US is a vital ally in our fight to free America from Israeli sabotage of our constitutional rights, and how we can educate the right-wing grassroots demographic in Israel's involvement with all of the corruption that is destroying America.

Why Does Iran Not Want to Escalate? A Discussion on BRICS and Belt and Road: Episode 18

Last night Israel launched its response to Iran, and as anticipated, in the words of National Security Minister Ben Gvir “It was Weak.” Israel and the collective West’s non-0existent response to Iran, as well as Iran’s master class deterrence policy, clearly exhibits the historic proportions of the global re-alignment of power that is occurring. After Decades of of provoking Iran via copious assassinations against key members of it military and scientific communities, Iran’s calculated response on the 14th of April marks the rising power of the BRICS Bloc, and the slow but inevitable demise of Western hegemony. Once Again, the role of China and Russia in this historical shift cannot be understated. 2024 shall be the year that defines our collective futures. Thanks Elina for writing this awesome description. And to better understand the dynamics of that future, join us on Colonial Outcasts to discuss what is BRICS, China’s Belt and Road Initiative, and how these are influencing Iran’s deterrence policy and the West’s floundering with this Mumbai to Europe New Silk Road project that’s supposedly supposed to run through Gaza.

Germany's Crackdown on Pro-Palestine Dissent and It's Symbolic Importance - Episode 19: Helen Fares

Nobody fascists like my people. In this episode we focus on Germany as American college campuses erupt in protest because of its symbolic importance. Germany has a lot of "sins of the father" dynamics going on which places it ideologically in support of Israel unconditionally. The central question is if this authoritarian crackdown can ever be checked. We have invited Helen Fares, a Syrian/German journalist (or Syrian living in Germany) on to discuss this shocking intractability of the German Government and people.
