This week on the show, we hear about rallies across Ireland for the National March for Palestine held on May 17th. The day was chosen by the Ireland Palestine Solidarity campaign because it coincided with Ireland’s National Day of Remembrance for the Great Famine. The Electronic Intifada’s executive director, Ali Abunimah, travels to Dublin to join our contributor Abubaker Abed who arrived in Ireland just over a month ago after being evacuated from Gaza. And we speak with London-based barrister Franck Magennis about repression against anti-genocide activists in Europe. This episode highlights the interviews and reports from our livestream broadcast of May 22nd, 2025.
Produced by Pierre Loiselle, Nora Barrows-Friedman and Tamara Nassar.
