Hamas: How Israel created its own nemesis w/Paola Caridi | The Chris Hedges Report

- Hamas, like all resistance groups, from the African National Congress to The Irish Republic Army, are as demonized as they are misunderstood. Hamas is a religious, nationalist political movement. It is not, despite what Israel and Washington say, a terrorist organization-although, like most resistance groups (including the Jewish militias that created the state of Israel), it has used terrorism as a tactic. Because those on the outside do not understand what went into making Hamas-the steady drip of humiliation, violence, and impoverishment that define Israel’s Occupation of the Palestinians-Hamas and its ideology appears incomprehensible. But from the Palestinian perspective, Israel has left the Palestinians with no other choice. Journalist and historian Paola Caridi, author of "Hamas: From Resistance to Regime," joins The Chris Hedges Report to discuss the roots and nature of Hamas, and what we miss when we unthinkingly cast Hamas as nothing more than a terrorist organization.

I was in the Army, infantry in the U.S. war against the people of Viet Nam. Many years later I learned that the Vietnamese people had been resisting occupations by many countries for hundreds of years. Imperial powers are led by people who are “certain” that they can take over another peoples and then everything will be fine. Resistance is key to the survival of humanity. NEVER STOP RESISTING!
The zionists used US money, US arms, and bombing killing, and living like a king in Israel on other lands. They lived in the past in other lands too and many times they were driven out or te /rm**/ ina? tted for their characters, way of living separately in G of the cities what we all are observing. The Spanish drove them from Iberia and took shelter in Turkey, the Middle East, and some of Europe. 93% of Jews are Ashkenazi, which means European and none of their ancestors are from the Middle East. (ASH-keh-NAH-zee jooz) One of two major ancestral groups of Jewish people whose ancestors lived in France and Central and Eastern Europe, including Germany, Poland, and Russia. The other group is called Sephardic Jews and includes those whose ancestors lived in Spain, Portugal, North Africa, and the Middle East. Jewish Scholar Naom Chomsky said that he is a Khazar Jew from Ukraine. who are Khazar jews?en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khazars
@@joshuafrank4643 Slave revolts are ugly, but they won't stop until slavery ends. Israel has maintained a "kill ratio" of more than 100 dead "Untermenschen" for each killed "Übermensch" ... that can dampen resistance, but can not stop it. Only Israel can stop it.
I was an intelligence operative for uMkhonto we Sizwe, the army of the African National Congress. I trained in espionage and sabotage in Angola under instruction from the Red Army and KGB. My wife is a former combatant of the Zimbabwe African National liberation Army. Much respect to former soldiers of the US terror Army who came to understand and acknowledge that they fought on the wrong side.
@@joshuafrank4643you must have seen the documentary Tantura when during the creation of Israel they were raping teenage girls. Hearing it from the people who did it now in their old age and laughing was disgusting. Fast forward to 2023 now Israel is claiming that Hamas used their same tactics without any proof especially since they had GoPro cameras to broadcast their atrocities. When The NY Times wrote an article about it the families themselves debunked the story.
Don’t forget they lie about almost everything (40 beheaded babies ) etc
@@joshuafrank4643I think that you should put down the propaganda.
There's not been a single confirmed case of r wording by Hamas. As for the killing on 10/7, ISRAELI witnesses have said that the IOF are responsible for most of that.
They came to take hostages to use as leverage, which happens in these situations.
The question is why every upload about Gaza Palestine is always banned......is Israel afraid that the whole world will know about Israel's atrocities against the people of Gaza...
This video demonstrates how wrong your statement is. Heard of Owen Jones? How about The Young Turks? Perhaps you know of the BBC and Al Jazeera. Please explain what you mean because Israel is not afraid of anything, and they're currently wrecking the Gaza Strip in plain view for everyone to see. Y'all got a camera zoomed-in on Gaza 24/7, y'all can't even see the forest through the trees. Let me explain something that should be perfectly obvious: Israel's "atrocities" are Hamas's fault. Hamas is the dog that barked at the lion, and now they are suffering the devastating consequences.
Israel has been more ethical in its strategic fighting of warfare than Hamas, the PLO, Hezbollah, ISIS, the Taliban - I could go on and on - have ever been. You'll notice a pattern here: every "army" I listed above is a terrorist group, so of course they don't care about "International Law." By the way, the ICJ ruled it was "plausible" that Israel was committing "Genocide." Know why? Because Israelis are NOT committing Genocide, never were, and the ICJ like the UN is a useless entity whose space would be better if transformed into apartment buildings.
Atrocities like the 1000 or more people of Israel who were slaughtered and over 200 people of Israel who were taken hostage before Israel lifted a finger? Are those not atrocities? THOSE were executed before Israel was forced into conflict.
Yes.. Israel afraid if the whole world knows what they have been doing in Palestine especially in Gaza and West Bank
The media has covered them extensively and then had to retract or correct. Do you live in la la land?
It's honestly laugh-out-loud funny the extent to which these people lie. Let me know when Owen Jones is banned.
LOL What a joke. @@JenZee-oe2no
I will never get over in fact this genocide is being carried out by the ancestors of the Holocaust victims.
Think about what you just wrote
I think you mean descendants but yes agree
1. Family is from Europe
2. Published writings encouraging beliefs to form political movement
3. Self chosen name "of god"
4. Obsessed with genetics.
5. Contained neighbors physically whilst killing them child, women, men
6. Ignored outrage from most of the world
Am I talking about Netanyahus or Hitlers?
Israelis are not mostly descendants of the European Jews. They are from parts of the former eastern republics of the Soviet Union such as Tajikistan, Chechnya, etc., as well as Arab Jews from Morocco and Iraq etc. who were never victims of the Final Solution.
they learnt to be perpetrators from their history but are worse....much worse
Fighting for justice, equality and freedom is not terrorism at all
As long as there is oppression, occupation, and inequality, there must be resistance. And If you fight for freedom in your own land, you are a freedom fighter #freepalestine🇵🇸

"Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.

Hamas has a right to exist and provide new Guards for their future security based on the declaration of independence. To claim otherwise is the most un-american thing ever.
@@zxcaaq Thank you! I'll share this.
Irish here..grew up in the 80s watching bombs go off and people being reported shot on my tv every week. I was very young...I never supported innocent people being killed and grew up thinking that the IRA were bad actually. In my adulthood I learned about armed resistance and post- colonialism and what the IRA were fighting for, because you're not taught it in school. It is possible to support the right of a people to armed resistance, whilst not supporting some of their tactics and methods. From what I can see from watching the Al Qassam brigades vids and various military analytic commentary is that Hamas has been executing a much more respectable account of themselves, in respect to their conduct during this conflict, than the Israeli's.
What this documentary won't show is that all leaders from Israel as well as from Hezbolah, Hamas, or Hamas regime or Israeli government, and all government from Lebanon, Iran, Turkey, etc, without one exception, are members of Freemasonry.
Have you seen the videos of the attacks of October 7th? Well, I don't know if you have noticed that all bunkers were severely attacked and bombed, but the bunker of the Masonic Temple wasn't. Untouched. Doors opened. Nobody killed and nothing touched.
I have the video.
Secondly, what neither Israelis nor Gazans know, is that right now, Israeli Freemasons are washing millions of dollars in Dubai with the help of a Sunni Muslim... funds from Microsoft, McDonalds, IKEA, Apple.. many others. Those Israelis are all "Jewish" and Freemasons.
That's just food for thought.
Go to bed tonight and think about it.
And by the way, has IRA ever killed a politician or the son of a politician? A very important person and their enemy in Parliament?
You know the answer. You know who are the bosses.
Against facts there are no arguments.
Not to mention their propensity for rape, Israel withdrew from Gaza in 2005 and Hamas made no attempt to improve the lot of Palestinians, the Hamas leadership lives in luxury in Qatar, none of the Muslim countries in the region want to take Palestinians in , that speaks volumes for their attitude.☠️⚰️
Ahhh my comrade from insta. I see you here too! #FREEPALESTINE
@@AsifJustChillin 🫶
I assume that by "conflict" you include the invasion of Israel on Oct 7th. By Al Qassam brigades vids I assume you include the vids taken by Al Qassam members and their Palestinian allies of the actions they performed on Oct 7th.
You say they executed a much more respectable account of themselves in respect to their conduct during this conflict than the Israeli's. I think one would have to have a certain bent understanding of the word "respectable" to say that.
Repeat a lie often enough and eventually it will become Israel
Repeat a lie often enough and suddenly Palestinian are indigenous to Israel and Israel not. Palestine was never Palestinian, it was always Israel/Judea. Where are the archeological finds of Palestinians? They don’t even have the DNA of the Philistines, but of Egypt and Jordan 🙈
They kept repeating the lie to long that the world don’t believe them anymore
💯
Thief,lying, genocide, denying the truth even if everyone sees it in the media = Isreal.
Free Palestine 🇵🇸
as the mith of Shoa' show (only at cinema and tv ,from 1967 and not 1945)
I like when she didn’t describe the attack on the mosque in Hebron as “terrorist” but she said about Hamas attacks many time as “terrorist” and “fascist”… that’s why we will never have equality and peace in the world !
Let’s remember that the first terrors bombing in Palestine was in 1946 when the “ Israeli terrorist militia “ haganah attacked king David hotel and killed 96 people and this was never classified as “terrorist” , the Jewish colonialists of terrorist made hundreds of terror attacked on Palestinians and till today it’s happening
Terrorism means the act of attack on civilians for political gain or reason so no one knows what drove that guy to kill those people, could be hatred and has nothing to do with politics, if that was the case you can't call it terrorism.
The action of Hamas is terrorism the UN stated that but it did not condemn it because it's also a resistance act.
Good catch. I missed it. Though I noticed that she has difficulties admitting right away that Israel had the intention to “finish the chapter of 1948”.
She makes a preamble of how “the Israeli strategy changed along the weeks and then the months of this war on Gaza and at a certain point it started to be a war of a very specific goal: the expulsion of the Palestinians” and she talks about what started going on in the West Bank. Seriously??? Wasn’t already going on the so called incremental ethnic cleansing in the OPT?
I never heard her utter the words fascist or terrorist regarding Hamas.
Yea, and Count Bernadotte was murdered in 1948 on his second visit as UN negotiator. Israelis have never wanted Palestinians to remain. From that standpoint, what they’re doing today is worse than the Nazis.
Most people remember the king David Hotel but they also b**bed the semiramis hotel
"The Zionists as a movement, and then the State of Israel, which emerged from that movement, declared war on the Palestinian people. In that war we saw ethnic cleansing, genocidal policies and a racist apartheid regime" ~ Miko Peled.
Racists that have Palestinians living happily and prosperous in Israel?
The "Palestinian People" declared war on Oct. 7. Are you daft?
@@FaerieSidhe And they refuse to release hostages.
Oh you missed out the bit about 'from the river to the sea', care to comment?
@@JenZee-oe2no Not true. Hamas has been offering to do a prisoner swap right from day 1, and back in Nov/Dec there actually were some swaps.
I am very moved by this profound detailed insight of Hamas and the Palestinian struggle to survive.
Why don't you, I magine
Palestinians living peaceful a long Israel? They could have turned Gaza in Dubai or Qartar
Israel left Gaza completely.
They should have Invested in Gaza buildings wealth with their Arab brothers money.
Israel wished them good luck then
But terror was a priority.
They spent aid money into Terror weapons
Tunnels
Hating Israel.
There 2 millions Israeli living in Israel today.
They are free to go, and come back.
Ask them, I'd they want be a Palestinian state'
The Answer is Known.
Why?
Because is good to them.
You are talking about something you know absolutely nothing about. Gaza has been under siege for 17 years. When Israel left Gaza in 2007, it imposed a stifling siege on it. Gaza is not allowed to bring in iron and steel, and even food supplies enter in measured quantities, and all its borders are besieged. Tunnels are the only thing that helps them resist. The occupation, and also Israel, left Gaza due to the resistance and not by its will. Also, not far from Gaza there is the West Bank, there is no Hamas, and yet Israel destroys them, arrests them, and steals their lands every day. Before you do not speak, he answers, you must research and educate yourself well.
Thanks Chris and Paola for the great interview. I wish this content were available to all Americans via the mainstream media. We probably wouldn't be watching this genocide unfold if it were.
From birth to death Americans are force fed HASBARA..... Its sad and down right evil. Sometimes I think to Myself that I wish I didnt turn My TV off and seek truths, the suffering and injustices, crazy people so much does not make sense but is very real.
But Palestine's Peoples Truth is the By Far the most Disturbing and the most Heartbreaking for ME ever in My 63 years on this Planet.. If only it would Stop NOW

As an Irish Catholic growing up in N. Ireland during the “troubles”, the Palestinian people have been treated so much worse. I was scared of IRA and horrified every time they killed or bombed innocents. I don’t know much about Hamas just that they were funded by Israel a few years ago.
the freemasons were created to target catholicism since king philip IV and especially since moussolini banned the zionist international fraternity
If you don’t know much about them you should know more about them.
It looks like they built tunnels didn’t they, with the funding. I was in Dublin a few weeks ago and wow, busy bars and great atmosphere .
The Troubles in NI were a toxic brew in which no one came out without deep deep shame.
Not the Republican or Loyalist paramilitaries and not the British state.
Those paramilitaries on both sides of the sectarian divide today are now often to be found running drugs coercing those in debt to them to participate in sectarian riots in payment.

It is so important to have a clear understanding of the history leading to Oct 7th and the horrific, excessive assault on Gaza. Every resistance is labelled "terrorists " until such a time that it suits Western powers to legitimise them in pursuit of their own agenda's. I'm sure that I don't need to provide a list of examples to the viewers of this channel. Great interview, fascinating, educational, and insightful.
So true. Today America celebrates Nelson Mandela and builds monuments to him. 40 years ago he and his organization were labeled terrorists.
"Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.

Hamas has a right to exist and provide new Guards for their future security based on the declaration of independence. To claim otherwise is the most un-american thing ever.
So I’ve been saying this for six months and I’m 1,000,000,000% correct if we want to stop the slaughter and save the people that are left in Gaza we need to stop the supply chain. How do we do it just like Yemen. Nurses stay home for five days truck driver. Stay home for five days cooks stay home for five days dishwasher stay home for five days. Truck or stay home for five days. Stop the supply chain and Joe Biden will run to Argentina and then Country will come to a halt, and the Ceasefire will start.
"I support Palestinians but not Hamas." Then you stand for nothing. If you support a people being threatened with extinction then you must support their armed resistance because that is their only hope for survival. Unless you do this you only "support" Palestinians in dying.
The notion Palestinians can commit “atrocities” against their occupiers is a gross lie. The only atrocity is the ongoing Nakba - Israel’s dependence on Palestinian elimination. Every act in response is necessarily liberatory. Any law that condemns liberation has no legitimacy.
I think you can support armed resistance but choose not to support groups which adopt the ideas/understandings of the Muslim brotherhood.

@@annelliot622 at this time of occupation and continuous atrocities, you cannot be selective in your support to one party instead of the other, as there is only this unique party that you don’t like, which works hard to liberate the people and the land of palestine; stopping support to this unique liberation group, means stopping the whole liberation process.
@@taoufiknoah1975 I do not claim to have any authority to speak on this issue. I hear what you are saying. I didn't say "don't like" a particular group; I said disagree with some of their understandings. But at this time of terrible oppression I agree that it is very important to stand with the Palestinian people as a whole and stand with their right to fight militarily.
@@annelliot622 exactly, we are not supposed to agree with islamic perspectives, as long as they respect christian and other religious sects in palestine; they meet christians priest of the holy land and even Representatives of the anti-Zionist, ultra-Orthodox jews , Neturei Karta sect, met their leaders and expressed their yysupport. countries have a lot of parties and sects, but they all agree and consolidate their efforts in time of wars. That’s how it should be.
Obviously, we live in corrupt monetary and literal hell, thanks for the verification Chris

This was a great conversation, but I was slightly disappointed with the dismissal of the idea that Hamas was actively created by Israel for its own goals. For anyone who is interested to learn about that, a good introduction is a short video Mehdi Hasan did for The Intercept several years ago, it's called "How Israel Helped Created Hamas".
You shouldn't take any interpretation for granted. The reality is much more complex. The Zionist entity USED Hamas cynically, and Sheikh Ahmad Yassin the founder of Hamas was imprisoned, tortured and finally assassinated by the Zionist entity.

Bc it's propaganda.
@@mahirrahman7 What is propaganda? The well-documented history of the role of Israeli state funding in the creation of Hamas -something former Israeli officials and military commanders openly admit?
Tbh I don't know the truth about that, but I know I wouldn't take Mehdi Hasan's word for anything.
@@annelliot622 A zero-evidence ad-hominem attack on someone is not an argument. Plus, as already noted, the video cites Israeli officials and military commanders confirming that history - "Mehdi Hasan's word" has nothing to do with any of it, unless, again, you're trying to trashtalk someone because you personally don't like them. And also Hasan is not the only one who has highlighted that history - there are books, articles and reports that have detailed it. Your disinterest in even watching that video to see the quotes and historical evidence, as opposed to your eagerness to make random, subjective claims about someone's trustworthiness with zero evidence, already says a lot.
The history of Zionism, and the relative importance of how Zionism has shaped the direction of the Israeli government, is very important in context and in relation to the creation and evolution of the Hamas government.
Prior to around 1900, the Jewish and Muslim communities enjoyed a peaceful existence, along with the Christian faith community in the region.
It’s not until the influence of the European government that we see a divide starting to appear among these people.
By the time we started moving people to colonies in the Middle East, do we see the possibility for a divide.
Hamas was a movement and never came into power until people saw through the corruption of Yasir Arafat and PLO

She didn't mention that the MB was declared a terrorist org by Arabs or the significance of the Mount to J's and C's.
Free Palestine 🇵🇸
From its corrupt terrorist leaders living in Qatar and Turkey!
Thank you people need to be educated.
The ideological and cultural origins of Hamas are connected to the Islamic Brotherhood, which as Caridi confirms, in its 1920s beginning was a "reformist" Islamic movement.
Decades ago I read about it and was very impressed by its progressive thinking in Egypt in the 1920s onwards when Egypt was the intellectual hub of Arab thought.
My source remains in my library - Enayat, Hamid (1982) Modern Islamic Political Thought: The Response of the Shi"i and Sunni Muslims to the Twentieth Century. Macmillan Press. Hamid Enayat (1932-1982) had been Professor of Political Science at Tehran University. When the book was published he was teaching at Oxford University.
the reformist movement was a response to the state of Muslim communities facing imperialism, industrialisation, and globalization. it presented a third way for Muslim communities to stop civilizational decline, and embrace progress in modern world. Some Muslim leaders then opted to embrace secularism (Turkiye), or rejected modernism (Saudis).
At the end of the day, it simply rankles the Arab world that a successful Jewish state exists in their midst. 🙏🔯🕎🇮🇱
@@paulamarsh1Not everyone shares your bigotry towards ppl of different religions.
It is definitely not for Israel to determine who in our world can be called a terrorist and who cannot; this word from their lips sounds mocking, as if they consider humanity to be clinical cretins. Anyone even remotely familiar with their true history will find this outrageous.
Exactly 💯
Not for CIA to determine also
Why argue about meaning of a word? Check the dictionary. Terrorism: the systematic use of terror especially as a means of coercion
Terror: violence or the threat of violence used as a weapon of intimidation or coercion
Mirriam Webster dictionary
Conclusion:
Looks like terrorism runs in the family. Both cousins have been doing it, while right now, one has an upper hand.
The Arab world calls Hamas and ISIS terrorist too .
Egypt and many others declared them as terrorist groups.
Thank you very much for the interview with Paola Caridi. I learned a lot from this interview, I will buy her book. Her conclusion makes sense. I cry for Palestinians.

PEACE and FREEDOM.
No doubt that while most of the Palestinians until this day choose a non-violent protest, a lot of them felt that their freedom will not be acheived through peaceful acts, but rather through violance. No matter what you think of "H" (the said organisation), it's understandable why the state of Israel wanted to use this organisation in order to seperate the Palestinians.
yes, they tried violence and look how that worked out for them
@@saagisharon8595They tried peaceful protest and IDF shot over a hundred unarmed Palestinians including children, disabled, medics and journalists!

Thank you so much, Chris, for inviting Paola Caridi and discuss Hamas, which - as you say - is demonised and completely misunderstood. This is a deliberate policy of course by Israel and the USA and Western European governments go along with it.

Soviet Union had considered terrorists who had fight against the occupation of Afghanistan from 1979 to 1989.
The Guardian: Gershon Baskin, who was involved in the negotiations to secure the release of the kidnapped Israeli soldier a decade ago said. “Netanyahu is off the rails,” wrote Baskin on X. “He is an existential danger to Israel. He must be gone from our lives.”
Netanyahu is not the problem. Israel is founded on this genocidal idea, has been functioning for 75 yrs to ‘cleanse’ the area. Netanyahu is simply executing the final steps of the plans, and in a way that seems more outwardly unhinged but is no different to any other person taking steps in any ethnic cleansing programs. Perhaps you are pointing out he is a danger to Israel because of the pace and sloppy propaganda that is increasing international awareness of the nature of Israel itself?
@@vinlilasPretty much. Root of the problem is zionism, while netan yahu being product of it. US and UK feeding the problem with unparalleled support.
Thank you both so much.
Very insightful and informative.
I've already gotten two day suspensions from youtube comments for attempting to accurately characterize what the h-crew is, without even opining on any recent actions. I believe the main sticking points were the usage of the term "nat°°nal liber°tion m°vem°nt" and non-usage of "te°°orist" and "iran-backed".
LUL not just me although those wernt setting it off for me
There's no real rhyme nor reason to its algorithm it seems to me.
People say the most shocking things and there they stay and yet frequently have I typed things that I would regard as factual, verifiable often innocuous statements and they're removed.
Emoting, positively or negatively regardless of the issue, seems to be acceptable as long as actual facts or points of contention aren't included.
It's incredibly frustrating as it either intentionally or unintentionally squashes debate.
@@gerhard7323 its getting increasingly difficult just to describe things guns for instance iv realized it really doesnt like
the part that frustrates me the most is this isnt unique to YT free platforms are becoming more and more scarce
@@torengallagher8368 Case in point.
My reply to you has disappeared.
Please see above.
Thanks Chris for telling the truth!
What a FANTASTIC interview!
I don't understand what makes this woman an expert on Hamas and the Palestinians. Very strange choice of Chris. It is funny that she refers to their terrorism not armed struggle although they are occupied and resisting occupation.Why can't a Palastenian expert speak on this topic?.
You are so right. But probably the choice is because the western audience unfortunately would not listen to Palestinians who would be labeled by westerners (at least subconsciously) as "biased" before they utter a single word.
Academics who write a book are often suddenly " the expert "
I am not sure about that. People are listening to Palestinians now and they want to learn and support them for the first time in history. Plus, Chris has interviewed a number of American/Palestinians. There are a number of Palestinians who were born in the West and more suitable to speak on these issues without the Westerner unconscious bias. @@hebaelwa
Leah Rabin wrote a book, but is no longer with us!@@singingway
Hedges and his guest are not experts nor scholars !
More and more truth needs to be revealed about israel and it's sordid affairs.
Agree💯
Great work sir we really appreciate your support.
I am astounded by people I know don’t want to know the truth, but have this cognitive dissonance about the subject and refuse to hear the facts and the truth.. It’s very remarkable and I can’t understand this mindset..
When Netanyahu stopped financing Hamas?
Never!
As an alternative to the Palestinian Authority Government, to contend against the Settlers!
Thanks Chris
Amazing analysis, very informative and educational. Thank you both 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Bonne Journée Á Vous!
The interviewer dodged valid questions about the atrocities of Oct 7, 2024.
What is the name of the song at the beginning
Willie King - Terrorized
Lookup low-key who has three songs named free Palestine 1, free Palestine 2 & then the theird is free Palestine 3.
They should really find a way to sell their books without having to transfer to another app.
We innerstand all of it ...during ww2 it was called Resistance....in Italy we called the regime fighters partisans and never considered them terrorists....only the Israelis and the Americans have used that term without considering that only an occupying force is considered such...just to set the records straight....long live the Palestinian Partisans ❤🇯🇴
What’s the song he plays in the introduction? Who is singing?
Very useful analysis, thank you so much Paola and Chris!
Excellent interview! Thanks
Great conversation Chris
Excellent guest. Thank you.
Fascinating.
Why don't you start explaining the background history of the "Ghaza band", the status of Ghaza city before 1948?
excellent digging journalism!
Excellent guest. Thank you, Chris.
Very informative and enlightening interview
FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸
Free from Hamas
free them from evil crazy hamas
Thank you Chris and Paola Caridi for this great discussion giving so many historical details on the history of Palestinian movements and Hamas, so very valuable.
I just bought the book, it's top tier
Great show.
Thank you ✊

Please whoever reads this read these 2 books besides the good overview books like Ilan pappe and Rashid Khalidi's.
My People Shall Live - Leila Khaled (she's an old school PLO later PFLP however she supports all resistance with the IR,DFLP, PFLP and Hamas)
Hamas A history within - Azzam Tamimi (another good book like the one discussed here)
I hope the brilliant Hedges realizes he ought to have her speak in Italian and have an interpreter's voice over because Paola's unmastered English. IT is so confused, so abstruse in lexical and verbal imprecisions that it deepens our dismay, the already hard task to deploy when one really wants to understand Hamas, Gaza, the political factions, the struggle, hence the mess since 1948. Even the several interruptions of Hedges for elaborate clarifications is not a task Caridi can accumplish because of her extremely poor English. It's a poor promotional -service - for her book as one thinks "If that book is written in that disordinate confused grammatical sentence construction...well I won't be able to benefit from it and finally get a clear idea of the messy politics out there. " Many times I wanted to flee this painful entangled spider-web kind of interview. We are overwhelmed by the quantity of reports on you tune and the web. Replaying over and over such and such section is not an option.
people forget that the leader of the PLO which was a peaceful government was killed bye the opposite side.
Very impressive… Respect to real journalist … who ever watches this video is enlightened on topic with truth and integrity
