Kuttab Brothers Debate the Future of Palestine: Where are We Now and Where are We Going?
The situation in Palestine is becoming increasingly dire. Daily ferocious and deadly attacks on Palestinians in the Gaza Strip continue, alongside the blockade of humanitarian aid and medical care for those most in need. In the West Bank and East Jerusalem, ongoing violence from settlers and the Israeli army against Palestinians persists, including harming civilians, land confiscation, and destruction of property. In Israel (1948 territories), Palestinians are facing unprecedented levels of discrimination and violence.
Public declarations and positions by Israeli officials are undermining efforts not only for a ceasefire but also for a genuine and viable solution that ensures peace and security for all residents of the region. Subjugating the Palestinians seems to be the only solution offered by these politicians and there seems to be wide support for them.
Additionally, many experts warn that the Palestinian Authority is on the verge of collapse, rendering it even more powerless than before to provide for its population and protect it from these relentless attacks and violations, even in statements of condemnation.
The ongoing struggle has left many around the world with questions about the future of Palestine and the nonviolence resistance movement.
The Crucial Questions:
Where is the Palestinian movement for liberation standing now?
What is the future of the Palestinian political leadership?
Is there any viable solution to the occupation and what does it look like?
Joining us to answer these questions and many more are two brothers who have dedicated their lives to Palestinian liberation and peace.
