What Do We Talk About When We Talk About Palestine? Part 6: Gaza and The Fake Security vs. Equality Dichotomy

As I'm recording this, Gaza is being bombed by the Israeli forces. In short, a lot has happened since last week. A lot needs to be unpacked. In this episode, trying to further answer the question I have asked myself in this series - what do we really talk about when we talk about Palestine? - I talk about the abstract but often used concepts of security and self-defence. What I do exactly is the following: use the concepts from my previous episodes as prisms to analyse this situation, talk more about the mainstream media narrative and, more importantly, where it starts, explore the concept of security and self-defence by mentioning what the International Humanitarian Law has to say about it, point to potential hypocrisy that might surround any talks about Gaza.
