Breaking the Iron Wall: How Avi Shlaim Came to Reject Zionism

Palestine Deep Dive 2025-09-19 | Celebrated historian Avi Shlaim, once a committed Zionist, reveals the personal and historical journey that led him to reject the ideology. From his childhood as an Arab Jew in Iraq to his response to the genocide in Gaza, Shlaim dismantles long-held myths about Israel’s creation.

He also exposes how he has been largely excluded from interviews on the mainstream media throughout the duration of the genocide.

Genocide in Gaza: Israel’s Long War on Palestine is published by The Irish Pages Press. The book can be ordered directly at the publisher’s website: irishpages.org/product/genocide-in-gaza/?v=7885444af42e

Nasr exposes the company’s major role in Israel’s genocide and apartheid and discusses efforts to organise workers and activists to resist its complicity through the organisation he co-founded No Azure for Apartheid (Noaa).

Noaa is a worker-led group of tech workers within Microsoft. Its members are committed to exposing the complicity of specific technologies, including Microsoft's AI software Azure.

More than just a profit-seeking organisation, Nasr identifies Microsoft as a genocidal digital weapons manufacturer – as the most trusted tech provider for the Israeli government and military, Nasr explains how Microsoft aids Israel’s combat and intelligence activities, storing illegally collected data to surveil Palestinians and more.

Episode 1. was recorded back in June 2025, but new revelations reported recently in The Guardian also expose how Microsoft Azure servers in Europe have been storing ‘a million calls an hour’ in an expansive Israeli surveillance operation against Palestinians – data used by Israel to conduct lethal strikes in its ongoing genocide on Gaza.

Sitting down with Palestinian journalist Ahmed Alnaouq, Jones exposes the BBC’s systematic failures, saying the organisation "will never recover" from its coverage on Gaza. He also critiques his own employer, The Guardian, and Western journalists more generally who remain unwilling to report accurately the situation on the ground.

They also discuss the false allegations that Jeremy Corbyn's Labour Party was institutionally anti-Semitic under his leadership, and what was done to challenge that narrative in and around the Party at the time.

Jones also offers his perspective on Zionism and how it has developed, and also provides his theory of change for freedom in Palestine through support for the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement.

A witness, survivor, and documenter of Israel’s genocide on Gaza, Shrouq Al Aila is a Palestinian journalist, producer, and researcher who has been reporting from inside Gaza throughout the ongoing genocide. She is the director of Ain Media, an independent production company co-founded by her husband, Rushdi Sarraj, who was killed in an Israeli airstrike on October 22, 2023.

In this episode, Shrouq speaks about her return to Gaza after the genocide began, the day she lost her husband, the assassination of her colleagues at Ain Media, and the daily toll of famine, grief, and survival. She also reflects on the Western feminist silence around the femicide in Gaza, and the Emmy award she recently received for her work, a recognition dedicated to those who gave everything to tell the truth.

“Rushdi gave me a press vest, thinking it would protect me. But here, that vest marks you as a target.”

Despite repeated displacement, personal loss, and ongoing danger, Shrouq has remained in Gaza to continue reporting the truth from the ground. Her work not only exposes Israel’s war crimes and the Western media’s complicity but also stands as a frontline act of resistance, ensuring that Palestinian stories are told, and that memory is not erased.

Rushdi Sarraj (1992 – 2023) was a 31-year-old Palestinian filmmaker and co-founder of Ain Media – a Gaza-based Independent media production company.

Hala Hanina is a social and political activist from Gaza. She is currently completing a PhD in politics and sociology, focusing on Palestinian women at the intersection of colonial and patriarchal violence.

"Israel imprisoned my brother when he was twelve!"

Palestinian political commentator Kieran Andrieu joins Ahmed Alnaouq to explore what it means to be Palestinian today amidst Israel’s ongoing attempted fragmentation and erasure of the Palestinian people.

From Gaza to Jerusalem to Brighton -- their conversation uncovers the shared experiences of Palestinian dispossession, resistance, and survival at the hands of Israel’s attempts to sever the Palestinian people from one another.

Kieran shares stories from his family's history — including his grandfather’s wounding during the Nakba, the mysterious disappearance of an uncle, and a brother imprisoned at just 12-years-old. Ahmed reflects on his own losses in Gaza, and how growing up under siege shaped his understanding of Palestinian identity as one marked by resilience and struggle.

Together, they speak about the role of memory, the global shift in public opinion, and how Palestine has grown from a national cause into a worldwide movement for justice.

Kieran Andrieu is a British-Palestinian political commentator. He is a regular Novara Media contributor and holds a doctorate in political economy.

Ahmed Alnaouq is a Palestinian journalist from Gaza and the co-founder of We Are Not Numbers.

__________________________________

Heba Abunada (1991–2023) was more than a poet. She was Gaza’s radiance — a biochemist, a writer, and a visionary thinker whose words carried generations of Palestinian pain and resistance. Her poems traced the delicate threads between loss and longing, life and liberation. She wrote as if Gaza breathed through her.

But Heba’s life was cut short in the beginning of Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza. She was killed while on her prayer mat, during one of the most violent days of the genocide. Her final words on Facebook that morning read: “In Gaza, we are with God, either as martyrs or as witnesses to liberation, and all of us are waiting to see which we will be.”

Somaia Abunada is the younger sister of Heba. She is a former Fulbright language teaching assistant, she holds a B.A. in English Literature and an M.A. in Translation Studies. Somaia is currently pursuing a second Master’s degree in Applied Intercultural Communication at Trinity College Dublin. She has worked as an English teacher with the Irish Red Cross, social media coordinator with We Are Not Numbers, as a writer, and an activities coordinator and translator.

Hala Hanina is a social and political activist from Gaza. She is currently completing a PhD in politics and sociology which focuses on Palestinian women at the intersection of colonial and patriarchal violence.

Palestine Deep Dive’s Ahmed Alnaouq and Matt Kennard discuss his latest story about the Labour government secretly allowing Israeli Air Force planes to land in the UK.

They discuss where Matt and colleagues found the evidence and why the UK government has tried so hard to keep it secret.

They also talk about the significance of the UK base where the IAF planes have been landing, RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire, which was recently targeted by Palestine Action.

Matt explains how IAF refuelling planes have been active over Gaza around the time of war crimes, including attacks on residential apartment blocks.

They finish by talking about the implications of the new findings, with British ministers coming under increasing pressure for transparency about the UK military and intelligence role in the Gaza genocide.

Throwing Paint at Genocide–Now that’s ‘Terrorism’?

Palestine Deep Dive 2025-06-25 | "The people who are committing a genocide, participating in a genocide,
are criminalising the people who are trying to stop it as as terrorists. It's horrific." Matt Kennard

Palestine Deep Dive's Omar Aziz heads down to London's Trafalgar Square to check out the demonstration standing in solidarity with Palestine Action, who have been targeted with proscription by the British government.

Yvette Cooper, Home Secretary who is a member of Labour Friends of Israel, will soon submit a draft proscription order to parliament.

If the law passes, Palestine Action will become a designated terrorist group, which means that being a member of it, or even voicing support for it, will carry a prison sentence of up to 14 years.

This is the first time the UK government has moved to criminalise an activist group using the Terrorism Act of 2000, having huge implications for protest and free speech in Britain for generations to come.

The Long War on Iran: How Israel and America Put Tehran in The Crosshairs | Matt Kennard

Palestine Deep Dive 2025-06-23 | Support Palestine Deep Dive: palestinedeepdive.com/support

Israel and the US’s current war on Iran has been a long time in the making.

Palestine Deep Dive’s Ahmed Alnaouq and Matt Kennard discuss the history of regime change efforts and why Tehran has been such a problem for Washington and Tel Aviv.

They discuss the history of Israel’s secret nuclear weapons program which began in the 1950s, and the evolution of the Begin Doctrine after Israel’s strike on the Iraqi reactor at Osirak in 1981.

They also talk about the fact that no evidence exists that Iran has a nuclear weapons program while Israel’s is widely-known documented - and the absurdity of the fact that Iran signed up to the Non-Proliferation Treaty in 1970, but Israel is one of only four countries which has always refused.

This interview was conducted on Friday 20 June 2025.

Iran and Israel are at war after Israel launched an unprovoked attack last week. Palestine Deep Dive’s Ahmed Alnaouq sits down with legendary journalist and hip hop artist Lowkey to talk about the role Iran has played in the history of resistance to Zionism, about whether regime change in Iran is Israel's end goal, and who might come out on top.

They also talk about the resistance to the Gaza genocide within the UK, particularly the role Palestine Action has played, and the repression the British state has unleashed on activists and journalists to try to dampen the popular movement for Palestine.

Finally, they compare notes on being interviewed by Piers Morgan, and talk about whether his recent change of position on the genocide in Gaza is genuine, and what his real goal is with his popular Youtube show.
