Our feature presentation today is a talk Yousef Munayyer delivered at the Harvard JFK School of Government. He discusses US policy regarding Palestine and Israel, and especially Trump's part in it. He emphasizes the importance of actually visiting Palestine to begin to understand the situation. Munnayer is Palestinian and also a citizen of Israel and the United States. He is a writer and political analyst and currently Executive Director of the US Campaign for Palestinian Rights.
Before that, we share some of the extraordinary reportage and commentary that comes periodically from our dear friend, Professor Mazin Qumsiyeh in Bethlehem.
This Week In Palestine (a weekly 8am feature of Truth and Justice Radio (TJR)) is an award-winning 45-minute (or more) segment of news from Palestine and discussion of issues relevant to the Palestinians' struggle for freedom from Israel's brutal military occupation and colonization of their homeland. It speaks from the point of view of Palestinians and those who care about them. TJR is aired Sundays 6-10am ET on WZBC 90.3FM, Newton, MA, also streamed live and archived for two weeks at wzbc.org; TJR's modest website, truthandjusticeradio.org, has a link to This Week In Palestine archives back thru 1-6-2008; editions are also accessible at radio4all.net or by navigating through our playlists.
