The Palestinian Anti-Apartheid Struggle

The Palestinian Anti-Apartheid Struggle:

The Axis of Resistance and the Fragile Ceasefire Deals - Teetering on the Brink of a ‘New Middle East’

• Can the ceasefire deals in Lebanon and Gaza be considered a victory for the axis of resistance?
• What perspectives does the ceasefire deal in Gaza present about the state of Israel, the prospects of a Palestinian state and the future of the wider region?
• Is there still a chance for unity within the Palestinian political ecosystem? How is the current situation in the West Bank impacting the unity efforts?
• Should there be a place for 'uncompromising' parties like Hamas in any future Palestinian polity?
• How will the concept of ‘resistance’, in support of the Palestinian struggle for justice, endure in the face of another Trump administration?

To answer all these questions and more, please join us in this in-depth discussion with Abdaljawad Omar.

Abdaljawad is a Palestinian assistant professor and writer based in Al-Bireh, Palestine. He teaches in the Department of Philosophy and Cultural Studies at Birzeit University. His work explores questions of colonialism, resistance, and ideology, with a focus on Palestine.
