Audio: Crossing the Line interviews author Ramzy Baroud
Podcast, Crossing the Line, 14 August 2007
This week on Crossing the Line: Independent journalist Ben White joins host Christopher Brown to discuss the Israeli Ministry of Education's "inclusion" of the Palestinian Nakba into students' textbooks. White points out a number of concerns regarding the supposed enlightenment of the Israeli school system and its broader implications.
Next Brown speaks with author, editor and activist Ramzy Baroud on the notion of "peace talks" between Ehud Olmert and Mahmoud Abbas, the continued exclusion of Hamas from talks with Israel and Fatah, and the neo-cons and AIPAC's attempts to get Bush to go to war with Iran.
As always, Crossing the Line begins with "This week in Palestine," a service provided by The International Middle East Media Center.
