The recent Israeli assault on Gaza lasted three days, from August 5 through August 7th. Before a ceasefire was concluded on the 7th of August, 49 Palestinians lay dead, including 17 children, with more than 360 injured. Israeli occupation raids in the West Bank, in particular in Jenin, coincided with the attacks. And now, in all too predictable pattern, we see that the Western media has once again failed to ask difficult questions in the aftermath of the attacks, and instead resuming its deafening silence on the questions of the Israeli occupation and on the 15-year siege on Gaza. For this episode we speak with two young people in Gaza to gather their first-person perspectives. We deliberately chose to wait until several days after the attacks before releasing this episode, in order to highlight the role that the press plays in forgetting the ongoing violence towards Palestinians in Gaza.  Support us on Patreon Support the Palestine Podcast Academy
