Who’s Arming Israel’s Wars?
from Understanding Israel Palestine Hosted by KKFI 90.1 FM Kansas City Community Radio
Since October 7, 2023, Israel has dropped explosive power equivalent to seven times the Hiroshima bomb on Gaza. Where does this lethal arsenal originate, and which nations and corporations fuel this crisis? Hine-Wai Loose joined the show to discuss the organization she directs, Control Arms and the Arms Trade Treaty which it championed over ten years ago. We examine the contents of this treaty and how it bears on states party to the treaty. Hine is the moderator for the upcoming Voices from the Holy Land roundtable examining the global arms trade network supplying weapons used against civilians, tracing supply chains, transit routes, and complicit entities. Set for Sunday, October 18, the panel will unpack international legal frameworks meant to prevent these transfers—including the Arms Trade Treaty and humanitarian law—while assessing enforcement failures. People can register to attend at www.VoicesFromtheHolyLand.org.
