Since October 7th, the day of the Hamas \u201cterrorist attack\u201d on Israel, western media has been trying to push a specific narrative about what\u2019s happening in Gaza, by repeating to the Grand Public that Israel has the right to defend itself under international law. But what does that mean? Who exactly does Israel have the right to defend itself against when more than 40% of people living in Gaza are under 18? What is there to defend when Palestinians do not have an army and Israel possesses one of the strongest armies in the world? &amp;nbsp; With the help of our guest Samah, a Palestinian writer living in Montreal, we explore the history of Palestine and Israel\u2019s occupation of their land. We also address US imperialism and the connection that we must make between the Palestinian people\u2019s struggle and other genocides like the one currently happening in Congo. &amp;nbsp; What is our role as involuntary founders of this genocide?   \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014   Dans cet \u00e9pisode, nous abordons le g\u00e9nocide qui se d\u00e9roule actuellement en Palestine. Depuis le 7 octobre, jour de \u00ab l\u2019attaque terroriste \u00bb de Hamas contre Isra\u00ebl, les m\u00e9dias occidentaux tentent de passer un message sp\u00e9cifique sur ce qui se passe \u00e0 Gaza, en r\u00e9p\u00e9tant au grand public qu\u2019Isra\u00ebl a le droit de se d\u00e9fendre en vertu du droit international. Mais qu'est ce que \u00e7a veut dire? Contre qui exactement Isra\u00ebl a-t-il le droit de se d\u00e9fendre alors que plus de 40 % des habitants de Gaza ont moins de 18 ans ? Qu\u2019y a-t-il \u00e0 d\u00e9fendre lorsque les Palestiniens n\u2019ont pas d\u2019arm\u00e9e et qu\u2019Isra\u00ebl poss\u00e8de l\u2019une des arm\u00e9es les plus puissantes du monde ? &amp;nbsp; Avec l\u2019aide de notre invit\u00e9e Samah, une \u00e9crivaine palestinienne vivant \u00e0 Montr\u00e9al, nous explorons l\u2019histoire de la Palestine et l\u2019occupation de leur terre par Isra\u00ebl. Nous abordons \u00e9galement l\u2019imp\u00e9rialisme am\u00e9ricain et le lien que nous devons \u00e9tablir entre la lutte du peuple palestinien et d\u2019autres g\u00e9nocides comme celui qui se d\u00e9roule actuellement au Congo. &amp;nbsp; Quel est notre r\u00f4le en tant que fondateurs involontaires de ce g\u00e9nocide ?
