Today, we turn our attention not to headlines, but to the human question of neighborliness. Too often, Palestinians are spoken of as if they are unworthy reduced to caricatures, painted as “bad neighbors,” or dismissed as a threat. Cities like Dearborn, Michigan, with its vibrant Arab and Palestinian community, are stigmatized as places of hostility rather than celebrated as centers of resilience and care. But what does it truly mean to have a Palestinian as a neighbor? Would they throw trash at your door, scratch your car, or break your windows? Or would they do what Palestinians have done for centuries—offer hospitality, share food, and treat the neighbor, whether Muslim, Christian, or Jewish, with dignity? To challenge the myths, we bring you a clip titled “Jewish Rabbi Gives an Islamic History Lesson.” In it, Rabbi Dovid Weiss of Neturei Karta reminds us of a deeper truth: that Jewish and Muslim communities lived side by side for generations, often in peace, often in solidarity. He recalls how Jews found refuge in Muslim lands after being expelled from Europe, and how coexistence—not suspicion—defined centuries of shared history. So today, we ask not whether Palestinians can be good neighbors, but why the world has been taught to believe otherwise. And we listen to voices—like Rabbi Weiss—that remind us of the dignity, hospitality, and humanity that Palestinians have always carried with them. Stay with us. This is This Week in Palestine. And this is where the silence ends.

This second highlight episode from our COVID-19 series journeys through San Francisco and the North Bay’s food-security ecosystem at its breaking point. Frontline leaders share how they moved entire meal programs outdoors, expanded pop-up pantries, built new hygiene hubs and hotel-based shelters, and kept elders safely fed at home—often with fewer volunteers and greater risk. We explore: How food banks built pop-up pantries and data-driven “daily essentials” programs. Why seniors, families, Black and Latinx communities bear the brunt of food insecurity. Mobile showers, hygiene hubs, and hand-washing stations as public health. Hotel-based shelters, sobering centers, and drop-in hubs for unhoused neighbors. The emotional impact on staff and volunteers who “never closed” Featuring voices from SF-Marin Food Bank, Glide Memorial Church, Meals on Wheels SF, Redwood Empire Food Bank, Simply the Basics, Hayes Valley Bakeworks, St. Anthony’s, Lava Mae X, Community Forward SF, Tipping Point, and Project Homeless Connect. Listen in, then visit voicesofthecommunity.com to explore resources, support the featured organizations, and help us match donations for three regional food providers.

Eric Kirk, David Frank and Matthew Owen discuss the politics of the week.

On November 17th, the United Nations Security Council adopted the so-called Trump peace plan for Gaza. Resolution 2803 effectively makes the United States and Israel the joint rulers of Gaza, aided by complicit governments from the region and around the world. Former senior UN human rights official and international human rights lawyer, Craig Mokhiber, joins hosts Nora Barrows-Friedman and Ali Abunimah to discuss the resolution adopted by the United Nations Security Council and what may come next. Ali Abunimah reports on Palestinians from Gaza, recently released from Israeli detention, who have given harrowing descriptions of sexual torture by their Israeli captors. The Electronic Intifada’s contributor, Donya Abu Sitta, reports on the return of medical patients who had been receiving treatment outside of Gaza. Amid the joy and relief of their families, these patients come back to a landscape of utter destruction and a collapsed health care system with limited access to basic medication and treatments. On the Resistance Report, Jon Elmer covers the latest exchange of fallen captives and the Israeli military’s use of the Yellow Line as pretext to continue destroying eastern Gaza.

I once had the good fortune of seeing “If Animals Could Talk,” a movie made by Jane Goodall. A segment was about The MacLaren Youth Correctional Facility in Woodburn, Oregon. The boys incarcerated there have committed serious criminal offenses; some of them are given an opportunity to train dogs, develop relationships with the dogs and in doing so learn responsibility, patience and respect for other living creatures. There is a zero recidivism rate among the juvenile inmates who spend time training dogs at MacLaren. Joan Dalton is the founder and executive director of Project Pooch, a non-profit corporation linked with MacLaren, where incarcerated youths train shelter dogs and find them homes. We visited by phone from her home near Portland, Oregon on February 15, 2010 and began our conversation when I asked her to tell us how Project Pooch came about and then about Project Pooch itself. The books that Joan Dalton recommends are “Children And Animals: Exploring The Roots Of Kindness And Cruelty,” by Frank R. Ascione and “Rescue Ink: How Ten Guys Saved Countless Dogs and Cats, Twelve Horses, Five Pigs, One Duck,and a Few Turtles,” by Rescue Ink and Denise Flaim.
