Palestinian Revolution - Fanning the Flames of a Global Class Struggle? The Protagonists.

Palestinian Revolution - Fanning the Flames of a Global Class Struggle?

Most want peace in the State of Palestine, however the prospect of this is highly uncertain, despite the hoopla surrounding Trump's Peace Plan.

So it seems to many that drawn out negotiations and the struggle of the Palestinians will continue - for some time yet.

While the world watched the deprivations and unspeakable suffering of the Palestinian people at the hands of Israel and its allies, something changed. A growing number, including past supporters of Israel demanded the end of the cruelty and violence in Gaza and importantly, self determination .

With deteriorating economic conditions and millions around the globe subjected to the oppression of corporate statism - is Gaza a wake up call?

Hopefully our erudite guests will have a view on whether the prospect of peace in Palestine and self determination are possible or if those in power will instead double down to extinguish the flames of a growing revolution.

Mike Ryan HOST.
