CrossTalk: Protesting genocide
Israel’s genocidal assault on Gaza has resulted in casualties beyond the war-torn strip; it has dealt a blow to international humanitarian law as well as free speech across the Western world. Perversely, being pro-Palestinian and pro-peace is being condemned as antisemitic. CrossTalking with Lionel, Sherifa Zuhur, and Romana Rubeo.
CrossTalk: Funding more failure
The massive aid bill for Ukraine passed by the US Congress ensures the conflict will continue. Countless lives will continue to be lost. But will this aid alter the events being played out on the ground? There is no reason to believe so. CrossTalking with Tom Luongo, Angie Wong, and Derrick Evans.
CrossTalk Bullhorns: ‘Axis of evil’
The speaker of the US House of Representatives, Republican Mike Johnson, claims that Russia, China, and Iran are the ‘new axis of evil.’ Here we go again! CrossTalking with George Szamuely and Martin Jay.
CrossTalk: ‘Deterrence supremacy’
The balance of power in the Middle East is in a state of flux. Israel no longer has its vaulted ‘deterrence supremacy.’ A group called the ‘Axis of Resistance’ is challenging the Jewish state and, perhaps just as importantly, its Western patrons. CrossTalking with Wilmer Leon, Freddie Ponton, and Lionel.
CrossTalk: New red line
Iran’s retaliatory strike against Israel is a game charger. A new red line has been established. Tehran will no longer outsource its confrontation with Israel. Meanwhile, the Gaza genocide continues. CrossTalking with Eric Walberg, Leila Hatoum, and Steven Sahiounie.
CrossTalk Bullhorns: Biden’s many wars
Iran has retaliated. Is the US getting ready for a wider war? And, how many wars is the Biden administration planning on fighting? How many can it win? CrossTalking with George Szamuely and Martin Jay.
