Another Nakba Day for Palestinians

The APC team apologises for the recent 6 weeks interruption of APC podcasts This was due to issues beyond our control.We are now back :-) It has been 71 years since the founding of the state of Israel in West Asia and the problems arising from the dispossession of hundreds of thousands of Palestinian from their lands have not been resolved. The struggle by the Palestinian for their land, their rights and the right to return has taken many forms over this time. Every year on May 15, Palestinians mark Nakba Day (Day of the Catastrophe), the commemoration of the displacement that preceded and followed the proclamation of Israeli Independence.APC talked to Hilmi Dabbagh from the Australian Chapter of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) Campaign about the situation for Palestinians in Israel, the Occupied Territories, and the current campaigns for the right of Palestinians. Asia Pacific Currents provides updates of labour struggles and campaigns from the Asia Pacific region.
