In this compelling episode of *Downstream*, host Ash Sarkar sits down with historian **Rashid Khalidi**, author of *The Hundred Years’ War on Palestine* and the Edward Said Professor of Modern Arab Studies at Columbia University. Their conversation offers not just historical insight, but a piercing indictment of colonialism, propaganda, and the systems of occupation that continue to shape Palestinian life and global politics. Khalidi reframes the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as a **century-long colonial war**, not a symmetrical dispute between two equal sides. He traces its origins to the **Balfour Declaration of 1917**, when Britain—then the imperial power in Palestine—pledged support for a “national home for the Jewish people” in a land overwhelmingly populated by Palestinian Arabs. This act, Khalidi argues, was not a neutral gesture but a declaration of war against the indigenous population, laying the groundwork for decades of displacement and denial. The episode follows the structure of Khalidi’s book, which outlines six “declarations of war,” each marking a new phase of imperial aggression—from British colonialism to American complicity, from the **Nakba of 1948** to the ongoing siege of **Gaza**. Khalidi emphasizes that this is a **settler-colonial project**, backed by global superpowers, designed to erase one people and replace them with another. This framing helps explain why peace talks fail, why international law is ignored, and why Palestinian resistance endures. A key focus of the interview is **U.S. foreign policy**, which Khalidi critiques for shielding Israel from accountability while funding its military campaigns. He highlights the role of lobbying groups like **AIPAC**, which have entrenched bipartisan loyalty to Israeli interests and silenced dissent within Congress. From vetoing UN resolutions to enabling war crimes, the U.S. has played a central role in sustaining the occupation. Ash Sarkar also explores the role of **media and propaganda**, prompting Khalidi to expose how dominant narratives invert reality—portraying Palestinians as aggressors and Israeli violence as “self-defense.” This distortion, Khalidi explains, is the result of decades of manipulation and cultural erasure. He calls on journalists, educators, and activists to challenge these narratives and center Palestinian voices. The conversation turns to the **current crisis in Gaza**, where Israeli airstrikes have devastated civilian infrastructure and displaced thousands. Khalidi describes this as **collective punishment**, aimed at breaking Palestinian will. Without sustained international pressure, he warns, the violence will continue—and the cost will be measured in lives lost and futures stolen. Yet Khalidi also offers hope. He speaks of a growing global movement for **Palestinian liberation**, from student-led divestment campaigns to mass protests. He emphasizes that change will come not from governments, but from **grassroots resistance** and a new generation that refuses to be silent. The episode ends with a call to action: educate yourself, challenge the dominant narrative, and commit to justice. Because solidarity is not a slogan—it’s a moral obligation.

Earlier this month, Israel bombed Qatar’s capital city targeting the Hamas negotiating team which had been meeting to discuss a U.S. proposal for a ceasefire in Gaza. Professor Sami Al-Arian joins hosts Nora Barrows-Friedman and Asa Winstanley to talk about the consequences of these strikes. He also gives his take on the escalating and intensifying crackdown on political activism and speech in support of Palestine. On the Resistance Report, the Electronic Intifada’s contributing editor Jon Elmer describes resistance operations in Gaza, the West Bank and by Yemen as Israel’s decimation of Gaza City continues. And we highlight an article from the Electronic Intifada’s contributor Hazem Alghosain on art, starvation and the end of dreams during the genocide in Gaza.

Imagine the human habitat in which we all live changing so rapidly that life as we know it is extinguished. Temperatures that are getting hotter than ever, decades long droughts, catastrophic fires, melting polar ice, rising sea levels, and unprecedented winter storms are expected to radically limit food production and availability of potable water. In this, the first of a series on near term extinction of the human species, we visit with Dr. Guy R. McPherson, Professor Emeritus of Natural Resources, Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Arizona. Professor McPherson is co-author with Carolyn Baker of “Extinction Dialogs: How to Live With Death in Mind.” Together they present what appears to be overwhelming scientific evidence that our environment is headed for swift apocalyptic collapse. Not only is this extinction likely, it is occurring every day. “How to live with death in mind” is the goal; living with urgency is the practice. The point from which average global temperature rise is measured dates back to 1750, the beginning of the industrial revolution–the time at which the ever increasing use of fossil fuels began. Since 1750, the planet has warmed by more than 1 degree centigrade. McPherson’s book “Extinction Dialogs: How to Live With Death in Mind,” explains how this small global rise in temperature is leading to a large scale mass extinction on the planet. When Guy McPherson and I visited by phone on September 14, 2015, while he was traveling near New York, we began our conversation when I asked him to describe the indicators that reveal we’re in an era of unstoppable climate change.
