Analysis


What is the purpose of Israel's repeated attacks on UNRWA?


An Israeli airstrike on a school in Gaza killed six people working for the UN agency for Palestinian refugees.

UNRWA has been repeatedly attacked by Israel during its war.

So why is the agency so important to Palestinians - and why does Israel want to destroy it?


Presenter:

James Bays


Guests:

Riham Jafari, Communication and Advocacy Coordinator at ActionAid Palestine and former staff member of UNRWA.

Chris Gunness, a former Spokesman for UNRWA.

Ecuador: A Case of Geopolitical Lawfare


Exclusive interviews and leaked messages reveal how a key ally of the US weaponized the fight against corruption and criminal organizations to selectively prosecute Ecuador’s heads of state, viciously persecuting Rafael Correa and his Revolución Ciudadana movement on flimsy evidence, while delaying investigations into much graver crimes allegedly committed by his successors.

Recently-leaked secret chats obtained by The Grayzone expose how Ecuadorian prosecutor Diana Salazar leaked information to a subject of an ongoing investigation, undermining the prosecution of associates of Ecuador’s current and previous US-aligned presidents, and acted hand-in-glove with the United States government, which essentially selected and controlled prosecutions from Washington.

The shocking revelations of corruption and US meddling in the geopolitically-crucial South American nation have been largely ignored by the US government and corporate media outlets.







------------------------------------------------------------------------



Interview


Ecuador’s Rafael Correa on U.S. Lawfare Agenda


Former Ecuadorian President Rafael Correa returns to The Grayzone for an exclusive interview about the investigation exposing a decades-long campaign by the US government to manipulate the judicial system of his country to favor U.S. and corporate interests.

How Western Media Can Be Prosecuted For It's Role In Gaza Genocide | Craig Mokhiber


International human rights lawyer and former senior UN official Craig Mokhiber exposes the Western media's role in the "machine of genocide" on Gaza and how it can be held legally accountable for its propaganda and bias reporting.

Citing the Nuremberg Tribunal and the Rwanda Genocide, Mokhiber exposes historical legal precedents where media companies and figures have been held accountable for their role in facilitating war crimes and violations of international law.
