Check us out on Patreon for exclusive content:   / colonialoutcasts   We’re going to focus on the insane media gaslighting that is going on right now, by examining the reporting of the New York Times over the past 24 hours. It’s been disgraceful. They are literally now running Op-eds that say essentially that the hostages should not be recovered for the greater good. But first, lets talk about what happened to six hostages over the weekend…

Dr. Mohammad Abdelfattah, an American Palestinian critical care physician in Los Angeles, describes his experience volunteering at the European Gaza Hospital. He describes the unfathomable conditions, injuries, heart wrenching suffering of families, the cruelty of Israel's boot on the necks of Gaza in even the smallest facets of life, but even more important: the superhuman strength, faith and resilience of Gaza's native doctors able to witness such horror daily and maintain a personal connection with every single patient they treat. Dr. Abdelfattah describes his journey from the airport in Egypt through the Sinai, the harassment and bureaucracy from Egyptian authorities as an institutionalized tactic of discouraging Western aid to Gaza and the life-altering experience of walking through an ICU in Gaza that would horrify any medical worker.

This is our second interview with Dr. Altalla, surgeon at the last fully functional hospital in Gaza, Al-Aqsa, which suffered an airstrike yesterday from the Israeli regime in their courtyard, killing 5+ and maiming others. This was recorded weeks ago following the massacre at Al-Mawasi, the victims from which Dr. Altalla treated. So some of the information is dated but the overall value of the information concerning the medical situation in Gaza is beyond relevant. The internet connection was very spotty at best and required hours of editing to make it viewable. Dr. Altalla also has to be mindful of potential drone strikes on his location as the Israeli regime actively hunts medical staff to further terrorize their resilient people of Gaza. We discuss the dire shortage of medical supplies, the impending Polio pandemic poised to sweep the population of Gaza, the improvisation and bravery by medical staff to make due with what little resources they have to save lives, and some positive moments in the midst of this hell. A teaching assistant at The Faculty of Medicine at Al Azhar University in Cairo and a medical director of Al Amal Health Center. Dr. Altalla wakes up every day to manage the critical task as surgeon for the Surgery Department of Al Aqsa Hospital. Dr. Altalla had the misfortune of witnessing one of the worst surges of patients as a result of the Al Nussiret Massacre which resulted in 270 + murdered and over 700 severely injured. In defiance of the nightmarish and unsafe conditions weaponized to drive medical staff out of Gaza, Dr. Altalla refuses to evacuate until there is a permanent ceasefire. Dr. Altalla is trying to raise money for his Master’s in the UK.

 / colonialoutcasts   So Ismail Haniyeh was assassinated in Tehran according the IRGC. Apparently Hamas has confirmed this saying that he "died as a result of a treacherous Zionist raid on his residence in Tehran." A hollow victory, at best. The entire axis of resistance is bigger than any one leader, and the importance of this will be overstated by Israel and the western media. So yeah, a targeted political assassination in sovereign Iranian territory while they were actively engaged in ceasefire negotiations with Hamas’s political wing, lead by Haniyeh. Israel is a short-circuiting killing machine that only exports violence and the tools of repression.

We’re going to get all military analysis with this Houthi/Israel drama that’s been heating up since Friday when a Houthi Suicide drone struck Tel-Aviv killing an ex-IDF sniper. It's not going to Escalate. Today we are joined by Jason of Generational News, his links in description, and he is coming out tom talk to us about Air Defense, since he was a field-grade Air Defense Artillery officer in the United States Army back in the day.

So what happened on Friday? Well, THE ICJ RULING CONFIRMS WHAT PALESTINIANS HAVE BEEN SAYING FOR 57 YEARS: Israel’s occupation of Palestinian territories is illegal, a form of apartheid, and must end, says the U.N.’s high court at The Hague. While this is hopeful, bear in mind that the ruling does little to immediately change the lived reality for Palestinians.

In light of the genocide of the Palestinians and unrelenting horrific developments threatening the lives of millions via a larger regional conflict, we broke from tradition in setting a specific topic of discussion to allow a very free form, bro-dad conversation with a social media comrade, Pete, from the TikTok Live “glory days”. And by “glory days”, we mean a few months when cyber bullying Zionists was at its apex. No academic, geopolitical or refined analysis, just venting about the state of affairs and thinking out loud in typical East Coast/West Coast dad fashion. Pete hosts the TikTok live channel, Mindwarz, (@mindwarz) which he uses to bring in different perspectives and help those without an extensive knowledge base on Palestine understand the basic human elements surrounding the plight of Palestinians, the deception of world powers and the actions required of humanity as a whole to put an end to horror that is empire. This conversation, if nothing else, is a therapeutic ASMR session expressed in unfiltered dialogue on a range of topics including, but not limited to: the horror of the genocide, the hypocrisy of the west, “conspiracy theories”, Islam, Radical Islam, racism, solidarity with Palestine in the Latino community, anti-Semitism, revolution and every topic that will make a white liberal cringe. #jre #jreclips #politics #news #worldnews #uspolitics #war #veteran #latino #ww3 #wwiii #dads #war #podcast #apocalypse #america #4thofjuly #independenceday

https://www.patreon.com/ColonialOutcasts So, The Pentagon has warned Israel against any "miscalculation" along its northern border with Lebanon, as fighting between the Israel Defense Forces and Hezbollah militia continues and Israeli leaders threaten to launch a full-scale cross-frontier incursion. But what what is the word on the street in Southern Lebanon? What is not being communicated by the Legacy Media? To answer those questions we have brought on two Lebanese dudes to talk about it. Here are their socials: Assad, Host of Habibi House Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@UCkJOwGuxa0QnZJYXp9bziVQ https://www.instagram.com/habibihousepodcast/ Mr. Dizaster: https://www.instagram.com/mrdizaster/

Special thanks for the audio mastering done by former Gaza resident Mohammed “MoKu” Kutkut (ig @mokutkut) to bring it to some level of clarity. Words cannot describe the horrific state of Gaza’s healthcare system (if it can be described as such) or the point of view of medical personnel taking on the harrowing task of saving as many lives as feasibly possible under a genocidal siege, but Dr. Mohammed Altalla does his best to do so as one of the few doctors still alive or in the capacity to take on such a burden in Gaza’s only fully functioning hospital, Al Aqsa. A teaching assistant at The Faculty of Medicine at Al Azhar University in Cairo and a medical director of Al Amal Health Center. Dr. Altalla wakes up every day to manage the critical task as surgeon for the Surgery Department of Al Aqsa Hospital. Dr. Altalla had the misfortune of witnessing one of the worst surges of patients as a result of the Al Nussiret Massacre which resulted in 270 + murdered and over 700 severely injured. In defiance of the nightmarish and unsafe conditions weaponized to drive medical staff out of Gaza, Dr. Altalla refuses to evacuate until there is a permanent ceasefire. As electricity is in obvious scarcity, the internet coverage being extremely undependable, a couple bombs being dropped in the background when he was recording and a drone loitering overhead the entire time, the interview had over a dozen interruptions with very poor quality of audio and video capture, so editing the final result only yielded so much. Yet despite the technical nightmare of interviewing anybody within the kill box of Gaza, the good doctor was able to convey the plight of medical workers throughout the strip, the aftermath of the Al Nussiret Massacre, the grave nature of the IDF’s sadism towards medical staff and patients at Al Shifa hospital as a campaign of democide, the more probable estimate of Gaza's casualties being North of 50,000 murdered, a personal story of a specific patient who left a permanent imprint on his heart, and the faith that drives most of Gaza’s medical staff into hell’s gates for the sake of any innocent lives they may manage to preserve.

I personally don’t think a wider war will kick off this weekend, but Israel is no longer a rational actor. We’ve already talked about what that will look like if it happens in a previous episode so today we’re going to try something different. Let's start geopolitically micro and go macro. We’ll begin with this Israel/Hezbollah situation and bring Cyprus into it. We’ll use that as a demonstration of the US's political quagmire, expand and draw parallels to Ukraine which will most likely end in a frozen conflict and a Russian "ugly victory," then talk about the overall loss of US soft power to BRICS and discuss, if we have time, Saudi getting off the Petro Dollar.

Hello and welcome to Colonial Outcasts and our spur of the moment breaking news Segment - Operational breakdown, where we look at IOF shenanigans from a military perspective.

Why are we doing this ad hoc episode? Well, the battle plan for the invasion of Lebanon invasion was just approved, and a never-before-seen IDF document surfaced last night with startling new details of Hamas' operational plans to invade Israel; The report outlines Hamas orders to take between 200-250 Israelis hostage.

*We re-uploaded this episode with better audio thanks to Mohammed Kutkut, a Palestinian sound engineer from Gaza.*

In this Episode I’m joined by another veteran from the special operations community - a former US Airforce Combat Controller - to talk about US complicity in Israel’s disastrous campaign in Gaza from the perspective that the US Military, Three Letter Agencies, and perforce the Biden Administration know exactly what is happening on the ground. No investigations necessary. And we keep supporting them with money, weapons and intelligence support regardless of this incontrovertible fact. The blowback from the disastrous and ultimately self-destructive “hostage rescue” mission Israel launched this past Saturday, June 9th, is still coming in. There is a question of how much assistance the United States rendered the IDF in this operation - some wild and unsubstantiated rumors of US boots on the ground. There is absolutely no evidence of this, some IDF soldiers have American accents, granted, but that TikTok battlefield rumor is just that. IT’s also pretty irrelevant in the grand scheme of things, because United States complicity in this massacre in particular and larger campaign of ethnic cleansing/Genocide in general, is both assured and inescapable.

This weekend, according to the NYT - Israel Rescues Four hostages in a hostage in military operation - This is a fact, it’s in the active voice and the hostages are numbered. Then “Gaza officials Say Scores are killed.” Which is presented as hearsay, in the passive voice and they victims are not numbered. This is pretty egregious. The role of corporate and partisan media in the United States is not to inform but to manufacture consent for the whims of the ruling and political class. IT’s becoming apparent that we are some of the most heavily propagandized people on Earth. The easiest way to see that is to note how many think we're the good guys. I argue that The Hostage Rescue Operation conducted early Saturday morning will have far-reaching unintended consequences.

So Netanyahu and his cabinet appear to have decided, or at least to be strongly entertaining the idea that they will attack Southern Lebanon. We are talking about an actual invasion with the presumed objective, if they have any defined objectives, of pushing Hezbollah back to the Litani River.

What could possibly go wrong? In short, just about everything imaginable. In this episode we take this from a broader geopolitical standpoint which examines the challenge to US staying power in the context of the War in Ukraine, and the escalation over Taiwan.

Have you Ever Heard that Israel is the West’s greatest strategic ally in the Middle East? Well, we’re going to talk about how that is blazingly untrue and we’re going all the way back to 1947 to do it. Welcome to Colonial Outcasts, your semi-friendly neighborhood anti-Imperialist podcast, and hot-darn it! We just pulled some Top Secret documents from the depths of the national archives, declassified but still unseen, from 1947, in which the Joint Chiefs of Staff advised then president Harry Truman that partitioning Palestine and recognizing the state of Israel will screw US global interests over in the long run. And we wanted to highlight these memos, written by guys who your Dad would probably credit with winning World War II, in this episode because aren’t y’all absolutely sick of hearing ancient grey-haired politicians gas on about how Israel is America’s most important strategic ally in the Middle East? We are. Check us out on patreon for extra content!

Welcome to Colonial Outcasts. This a ceasefire-related episode. It is currently Sunday June 2nd. Things are going to move fast so we’re going to keep it short-ish and jump right in. Elina Xenophontos, regular political analyst calling in from Cyprus, is here with us today. We’re going to talk about the Biden ceasefire proposal, Obama’s passive-voiced endorsement of said proposal, Netanyahu’s seeming rejection of said proposal, and now soft-floated watercolor talk that the Israeli government might actually accept it. At 6:30 am Central Daylight Time NBC published that “An aide to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel had agreed to the framework for President Joe Biden’s plan to bring an end to the war in Gaza, though he said it was “not a good deal.” Biden announced Friday that Israel had proposed a three-part plan that would ultimately lead to a complete cease-fire in the Gaza Strip, as well as the release of all hostages who have been held there for the last eight months. It’s “time for this war to end,” Biden said. It wasn’t a plan that Israel proposed, but we’ll get into that.

Check us out on patreon for exclusive content: https://www.patreon.com/ColonialOutcasts Today we are talking about the Haditha Massacre nearly 20 years later with a US Marine who was in sector during the aftermath of the massacre about the blowback that was still taking place two years later. This will be a two part series hopefully. Part one is context, part two will hopefully involve an interview with a Former Marine Judge Advocate General Lawyer who was involved tangentially in the cover-up. He actually texted me last night “Greg, I was involved in Haditha and know of the cover up. Those photos are burned into my memory.” So hopefully that will be part two, but no promises.

We will be discussing how Israel and the Mossad, excuse me - the Mob-ssad - have been spying on the international criminal court and threatening South African Ministers, but not in a sophisticated spy-agency James Bond villain type way. I’d say it was a mob way, like “I’ll make the South African Foreign Minister an offer she can’t refuse.” But according to these articles by the Guardian, Local Call, and +972 - the publications that broke this story - I’d say that Israeli conduct would actually be an insult to the mob.

Late Sunday night Israel carried out an airstrike on a refugee camp in southwest Gaza which has lead to the death of at least 45 Palestinians with at least 3x that in wounded, producing graphic images of non-contained tent fires and literally a decapitated toddler. The tent encampment was set alight - it being designed to house internally displaced Palestinian civilians. This is a developing situation. Israel has claimed responsibility for a strike in this area, which is, based on obvious battle damage assessments - twisted rebar, shattered concrete, splintered metal - the cause of this destruction. The IDF is of course looking in to it. This is separate from an event that happened earlier Sunday - Hamas shooting rockets out of Gaza into central Israel. Eight rockets, reportedly shot out of southern Gaza, East Rafah in a separate location from the camp. Still waiting for confirmation on where those rockets were actually shot from, but it’s a separate incident, at least militarily, from this refugee airstrike. More on that in a bit. The Strike took place in the Tel-Al Sultan Refugee camp in West Rafah. So just to be clear, the Tel-Al Sultan neighborhood is not part of the IDF’s new designated safe-zone, which by now we know doesn’t exist and can’t accommodate all the million plus displaced Palestinians, but this neighborhood also wasn’t on the evacuation list. The area where the strike took place was actually a designated stafezone as of two weeks ago. More on that as well. The IDF says they are aware of a fire that was started because of this strike and several civilians were harmed. The incident is under review. They assert that the targets of this strike were two senior Hamas commanders responsible for organizing resistance efforts in west bank. Also we’ll get into that because it makes no sense that West Bank operations would be coordinated through Gaza as opposed to Jordan or Syria. So that’s dumb on a very profound level. Hamas says they hold the US president and administration fully responsible for this massacre, the PA accuses the Israelis of deliberately targeting the tents. Israel will investigate, the US will say they’re waiting for the results of that investigation and that all civilian deaths are bad. Also, The Knesset is set to vote to designate Unwrap as a terrorist organization, and Egyptian and Israeli forces exchanged gunfire at the Rafah border crossing. One person is killed.

In this new episode of Colonial Outcasts we to map out, and draw connections in a very basic way between two conflicts (Gaza/Ukraine) and a potential armed flashpoint (Taiwan), because, as people have begun to realize since October 7th, it’s all connected, man. Not in a conspiracy sort of way, but in a very run-of-the-mill Imperialist way - the most basic definition of which is the wikipedia one, which for our purposes is more than acceptable. Imperialism is the practice, theory or attitude of maintaining or extending power over foreign nations, particularly through expansionism, employing both hard power and soft power. Imperialism focuses on establishing or maintaining hegemony and a more or less formal empire. Think of Hard power as military force and proxy wars, and soft power as diplomatic and economic pressure like treaties, sanctions etc. So, the US/Europe is fighting a proxy war in Ukraine in order to weaken Russia, which has spectacularly backfired. We are funding a disastrous campaign of genocide in Gaza which is Isolating both Israel and by extension the United States from the international community, and now the US is stoking tensions with China over Taiwan, which could turn into a military flashpoint. We are seeing an Empire in decline. It seems like US politicians still believe that America has the same staying power and power projection that we had in the early 90’s. But the working class is being depleted, rising levels of non-living wages and poverty are pervasive. We can’t afford another conflict, but the question is - can the American People people be deceived into fighting another war? #warinukraine #warinukraine2024 #taiwannews #chinataiwan #chinataiwanconflict #israelpalestinenewsupdates #israelhamaswar #militaryindustrialcomplex #icj #antiimperialism #decolonize #ceasefire #uspolitics #globalaffairs #foreignaffairs #humanrights #breakingnews #internationalnews #warzoneclips #veteran #politicalnews #palestina #politics #political #internationalrelations #internationallaw #colonialoutcasts #counterterrorism #globalsecurity

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.

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.

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.

On this episode of our coverage and analysis of Israel's Rafah assault, we examine the geo-political factors influencing the changing US policy towards Israel and the mounting international pressure to halt this misguided military action. We are joined today by returning geo-political analyst, Elina Xenophontos. https://www.instagram.com/elina_linax/ #israelpalestineconflict #ceasefire #decolonize #antiimperialism #globalaffairs #foreignaffairs #humanrights #israelhamaswar #counterterrorism #militaryindustrialcomplex #militaryintelligence #militaryintervention #uspolitics #bidenvstrump #independentjournalism #militaryhistory #veteran #veteransforpeace #egypt #icc #icj #ihl

Now, Three months ago I said the Rafah assault probably wouldn’t happen. It’s operationally impossible, Israel has no achievable goals, the resistance is still active in the north, but sometimes I forget that every decision Israel makes is in its own worst interest and its only agenda is genocide and ethnic cleansing at all costs. Its absolute insanity, but let’s breakdown the major developments and what they mean going forward.

Pro-Palestine student protests have flared up across the country in conjunction with campus and police crackdowns, with many students learning that their universities are essentially collegiate hedge funds. They demand divestment from Israel. The level of state violence they have endured at the hands of police has not been seen since the Vietnam Backlash. In this Episode we discuss the Imperial Boomerang, or the thesis that governments that develop repressive techniques to control colonial territories will eventually deploy those same techniques domestically against their own citizens. Our struggles are connected, keep pushing.

Today we are going to be talking about media bubbles, censorship, the cancer that is the word “terrorist,” and the prelude to the next war. I am Joined by series regular Elina Xenophontos and we are going to dive right into it.

First of all, my instagram account has been blocked to non-followers, Elina has lost her original followers, but what’s even worse for journalism at Large is that there is a multi-platform campaign to de-platform The Cradle Media - a "journalist-driven news outlet that is free, unowned, and covers the geopolitics of West Asia from within."

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.

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.

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.

The ghost wars for regional influence in the Gulf and the Levant between Israel and the US, Russia and Iran, continue but the long-established status quo has changed. In this episode of Operational Breakdown, we look at Iran's telegraphed yet effective and measured response to Israel's bombing of its Consulate in Damascus. We also talk about the logic of Deterrance, which is an important pillar of geo-political analysis. #israelpalestineconflict #ceasefire #decolonize #antiimperialism #globalaffairs #foreignaffairs #humanrights #israelhamaswar #counterterrorism #militaryindustrialcomplex #militaryintelligence #militaryintervention #uspolitics #bidenvstrump #independentjournalism #militaryhistory #veteran #veteransforpeace

A continuation of what turned into an unexpected cross interview, we dive into personal stories from Palestine, the often-sour relationship between American Jews and Israelis, racism among Israeli Jews, the horrors that Palestinians face, the inevitable demise of the Israeli apartheid, Wally's genius strategy suggestions in bolstering the economic power of Palestinians in the West Bank and the light of hope awaiting the future of Palestine.

With the illegal Israeli settlements expanding further in the West Bank, entrepreneur and Palestinian American activist, Wally Rashid gives us a horrifying glimpse into the the nightmare that Palestinian families face on a daily basis at the hands of the most violent and deranged Israeli settlers. Broken up into two parts, this episode also served as a dynamic mutual interview between Wally and Mark, and the impact which experiencing the West Bank first hand left on their lives as American men.

On April 1st, Israel took the unprecedented action of leveling an Iranian Consulate in Damascus, Syria. Embassies and diplomatic buildings have historically enjoyed international protection since they are recognized as sovereign territory. So, how will Iran respond to this attack on its own soil? They are being calculated, and not rushing a hasty response. Here we break it down through the lens of a very irresponsible article in Time Magazine. #israelpalestineconflict #ceasefire #decolonize #antiimperialism #globalaffairs #foreignaffairs #humanrights #israelhamaswar #counterterrorism #militaryindustrialcomplex #militaryintelligence #militaryintervention #uspolitics #bidenvstrump #independentjournalism #militaryhistory #veteran #veteransforpeace

Weaponized starvation, bombing safe zones, the destruction of infrastructure including hospitals, libraries, schools… Using white phosphorous on people… sound familiar? In this episode we draw parallels between the genocide of the Tamil People in Sri-Lanka, which Israel was also involved in, and the current catastrophe in Gaza. So to guide us through this sad chapter in modern history, we have Dushyanthi Satchi - a licensed clinical psychotherapist and policy analyst. She has a Masters in both clinical work and international policy from Columbia University. She specializes in Gender-based violence, including Intimate partner violence, sex trafficking and honor killings. She is American from NY, and of Sri Lankan Tamil descent. She has been on CNN, NPR, and Oprah Daily. She currently has a clinical practice in NY and LA. You can find here here:   / dushyanthi_satchi  

While AIPAC is a significant force in United States politics, many Christian Evangelical politicians would still support Israel unconditionally no matter its crimes. In this episode we plumb the thorny depths of Evangelical End-Times Prophecy, which dominates the lives of over 100 million Americans. We invite you to listen, as you cannot understand the American political landscape without taking these very reasonable people into account...

Continuation of a discursive and chaotic marathon of academic discourse with the Doc and an anonymous guest who requested to remain mostly as an occasional interactive listener . We invited a personal friend of Mark - Palestinian American Muslim mom, Rashy, who is incidentally also a student of O'Mara's lives. Recorded on Sunday, March 24th during the holy month of Ramadan, the Jewish holiday of Purim and Palm Sunday, 3 holidays of the 3 Abrahamic faiths. We didn't cover nearly the amount of territory as we intended, so this was more of an unstructured approach to the topic that leads us down some detours in sociology, human psychology, and personal experiences. https://www.youtube.com/@OfficeHourswiththeMadProfessor Also follow him on all of his social media outlets: https://twitter.com/LiamOMaraIV https://www.instagram.com/liamomaraiv https://www.tiktok.com/@liamomaraiv #ceasefire #netanyahu #uspolitics #middleeast #middleeastnews #palestina #foreignaffairs #history #globalaffairs #militaryhistory #levantine #mediacriticism #antiimperialism #decolonize #humanrights #israelpalestineconflict #israelhamaswar #politicaldiscussion #militaryindustrialcomplex

Because of July’s busy schedule at Colonial Outcasts, we are only now releasing a month-old episode with Wally Rashid, Palestinian American, entrepreneur and social media influencer. Recorded on July 11th, Wally relays the continuing horrors on his family village of Burin as well as other West Bank villages. The violent pogroms which took place on the 4th of July as Americans enjoyed their celebration of false independence are just an example of many that have defined reality for Palestinians struggling to endure under the brutal occupation. As the violent Israeli settlements, fueled by cultish belief systems of religious supremacy and blood lust against the inhabitants of West Bank villages rooted in the landscape for thousands of years, Wally has been working within the United States political structure to get these settlements sanctioned. We discuss the complexity of this work that Wally has taken on as well as the experience of his family’s village during these violent raid by former IDF settlers. Wally also discusses the value of long-term strategies through US politics and finding political avenues outside the box of ideology. While Wally and Mark hold different opinions regarding political strategy and direction, the urgency for any and all avenues in the fight for Palestine’s liberation from the everyday horrors of genocide, settler violence and ethnic cleansing is what drives the comradery within the movement as exemplified with Wally’s critical voice being platformed a third time on Colonial Outcasts.

This is a very free-form episode about the proposed Rafah Assault, Bibi's political predicament, and how I (Greg Stoker) almost got kicked out of Ranger Regiment in a shoot house ten years ago...

Ex-Israeli Soldier discusses militant Zionism and the dehumanization of the self, which allows for the atrocities that we are seeing on the ground. We also rag on Liberals on this one again. One of my favorite past-times. Thanks to Yuval Manns for coming on.
