82. ICJ says Israel’s occupation is illegal

The Mondoweiss Podcast

On July 19, the International Court of Justice, or ICJ, ruled that Israel’s occupation of Gaza, the West Bank, and East Jerusalem is illegal and must end immediately. Palestinians, of course, have been saying this for years. The court stated that Israel must halt all new settlement construction, evacuate settlers, and pay reparations to Palestinians, calling some of Israel’s policies “apartheid.” This advisory opinion, requested by the United Nations, marks a significant condemnation of Israel’s legal defenses. The ruling emphasizes the occupation’s illegality and highlights the...

81. AIPAC is spending big to beat Cori Bush

The Mondoweiss Podcast

Last month, pro-Israel centrist George Latimer beat Rep. Jamaal Bowman in the Democratic primary for New York’s 16th district. The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) spent $15 million to help secure Latimer’s victory and now they have their sights set on Missouri’s 1st district, where Rep. Cori Bush is facing a primary challenge from prosecutor Wesley Bell. Bush advocated for Palestinian rights on the campaign trail in 2020, and she’s been strong on the issue as a House member, making her a consistent target of Israel lobbying groups. Mondoweiss's U.S. correspondent...

The Mondoweiss Podcast

AIPAC, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, is on its way to spending over $100 million this election cycle as it looks to punish candidates critical of Israel's genocidal assault on Gaza. Earlier this year a coalition of nearly two dozen progressive groups – including Jewish Voice for Peace, IfNotNow, Justice Democrats, the Democratic Socialists of America, the U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights, and the Sunrise Movement – launched Reject AIPAC, an organization aimed at combatting the pro-Israel lobbying group.
