I’m Jeremy Scahill from DropSite News, DropSiteNews.com. This weekend, there is going to be another exchange of captives. Some are going to come out of Gaza and be returned to the Israelis. We’re also expecting scores of Palestinian captives. The last round, the prisoners who were released from the Palestinian side included women and children that have been held by Israel. As we wait for this next round of exchanges, the Israeli government and the Israeli military have launched a significant attack on the West Bank, centering on Janine. There is a lot to talk about, and we are going to be joined by a leading Palestinian political figure in just a moment. But first, I want to welcome my colleague Sharif Abdel-Kaddous. Sharif, good morning. Good morning, Jeremy. Good to be here. And we are joined right now by Dr. Mustafa Barghouti. He is the general secretary of the Palestinian National Initiative. That’s a Palestinian political party. He’s also been deeply involved with discussions about what is going to happen in the immediate future in Gaza, as well as the long-term future as well.

CRITICAL ACTION

Critical Action is a longtime friend of Z and a music and storytelling project grounded in liberation, solidarity, and resistance to authoritarian power. Through music, narrative, and multimedia, the project engages the same political realities and movement traditions that guide and motivate Z’s work.

Z is in the most precarious financial position in its history.

Z is a place to think beyond the limits of the present.

For decades, Z has brought together political analysis, movement reporting, debate, and visions of a different future from writers and activists around the world. That work is more than journalism. It is movement infrastructure: movements need places to develop ideas, test arguments, learn from experience, and imagine what comes next.

In the first two days of this fundraiser, 19 donors and 8 new monthly sustainers stepped up. Help us reach 1,000 donors who keep Z independent, for everyone.

For decades, Z has published the analysis, debate, and visions movements need, free of paywalls, ads, and billionaire owners. If that work should continue, Z needs your support now.
