The Break Down (Extra): Oil, Palestine and the Climate Crisis w/ Adam Hanieh
Manage episode 422769056 series 3439881
At the time of this recording, over 35,000 Palestinians had been killed, 80,000 wounded and 1.7 million internally displaced as a result of Israel's assault on Gaza. Alongside this profound loss has been the deliberate destruction of infrastructure and the 'ecocide' of Gaza's environment, from its cropland to its water and sewage systems.
In this extra episode of The Break Down, Adam Hanieh, a Professor of Political Economy and Global Development at the Institute of Arab and Islamic Studies, University of Exeter, and a founding member of the Centre for Palestine Studies at SOAS, University of London, explains the threads linking the global oil economy; more than a century of Western imperialism; contemporary American interests in the Middle East; and the response of governments in the US, UK and much of Europe to the ongoing genocide. Ultimately, he explains why these overlapping histories make mutual solidarities between the climate movement and movement for a free Palestine so essential.
