  • A Conversation with Mahmoud Khalil: Student Activism in the US and the Palestinian Struggle for Freedom

    A Conversation with Mahmoud Khalil: Student Activism in the US and the Palestinian Struggle for Freedom
    Jul 30 2025
    Following their moral compass, student activists at Columbia demanded an end to the genocide in Gaza and called for a ceasefire. The response? Intimidation, suspensions, wrongful arrests, and, in Mahmoud’s case, being illegally detained by ICE and threats of deportation. How and why did the current student movement begin? What were the consequences of speaking out on Palestine? And what does the future hold for student activism and for Mahmoud himself? In this powerful conversation, Columbia graduate student and activist Mahmoud Khalil shares the full story. Thank you for tuning into This is Palestine, the official podcast of The IMEU!

  • Israel’s Attack on Iran: How it Impacted Palestinians

    Israel’s Attack on Iran: How it Impacted Palestinians
    Jul 16 2025
    This episode uncovers a harsh and overlooked reality: Israel’s unequal protection and systemic discrimination against Palestinian citizens of Israel, which was particularly evident during Israel and Iran’s 12-day war, provoked by an Israeli attack on Iran. For nearly two weeks, most Israelis benefited from widespread access to shelters and rapid emergency response systems. Palestinian citizens of Israel, however, had unequal access to safe spaces due to Israel’s deliberate failure to equip them with as many shelters as Jewish Israelis. Palestinians with Israeli citizenship also faced rampant discrimination at shelters throughout Israel. We explore the impact of Israel’s decades-long institutional racism, including how Israeli systems, like the Iron Dome, often exclude areas where Palestinian citizens of Israel live. Join us for a powerful look at what it means for Palestinians to live as second-class citizens of Israel. Thank you for tuning into This is Palestine, the official podcast of The IMEU!
