Israeli Raids in the Occupied West Bank Fuel a New Wave of Resistance

Tulkarem-based journalist and researcher Anan Quzmar joins the show to break down Israel’s escalating violence in the occupied West Bank. Quzmar calls the violence a “natural outcome” of the “Israeli leadership’s ideological trajectories of further entrenching the occupation and displacing Palestinians” and the “continued international support shielding Israel from accountability.” Israel’s frequent violent incursions, Quzmar explains, are “indirect recruitment for insurgency rather than counter-insurgency,” adding, “you are forcing people into a desperate situation where they are more likely to pick up guns and try and resist.”
