This week on The Thinking Muslim, we have Dr. Finkelstein to discuss Gaza two years after October 7, 2023. We explore the moral and political legitimacy of Palestinian resistance, Israelās military response, and the role of the U.S. in enabling it. Dr. Finkelstein also examines Netanyahuās motivations, the collapse of the two-state solution, and what a just, post-Zionist future could look like for Palestinians, Israelis, and the wider region.
