'Palestine Is a Case of Criminally Postponed Decolonization': Indian Author Pankaj Mishra on Gaza, Censorship, and India's Parallels to Israel
from Mehdi Unfiltered · host Zeteo
Indian Author Pankaj Mishra has spent much of the past year advocating against Israel's war on Gaza, and has now even gone as far as to write a whole book on the subject – The World After Gaza: A History. The book is of course inspired by Mishra's London Review essay and lecture, 'The Shoah After Gaza' – which drew up controversy last year, after the Barbican backed out of hosting Mishra's lecture, all before he even gave it. Hear Mishra discuss the implications of Israel's impunity, US President Donald Trump's re-election, and his spats with far-right writers Jordan Peterson and Niall Ferguson, as well as parallels between the state of Israel and his home country of India, specifically in relation to what India is doing in Kashmir.
