Has the "Uncommitted" Vote Moved Biden?
We invited Omar Baddar, an analyst of the Israel-Palestine conflict and a prominent voice critiquing Israel’s ongoing genocide of Palestinians in Gaza, on the show for Episode 148, just before the end of last year. Now we’re having him back to provide urgent, necessary updates on how the genocide has progressed, how American politicians have changed their stance on US support of Israel (if they have at all), longer-term critiques of Biden’s comments from State of the Union and his overall approach to Israel-Palestine, and more. We hope you’ll join us for this essential deep dive with a respected voice on this crucial issue.
The last time Omar came on the show, he pointed out how some progressives have risen to the challenge of opposing Zionist war hawk colleagues in Congress — and how others have fallen short. Especially after Democratic primary elections that showed strong support for non-commitment to the party in the face of Biden’s bankrolling a genocide, it seems more important than ever to check in on how those who publicly identify with the progressive movement have actually allied themselves with the interests of the international working class.
