But also, what do you think of the tension then that poses for the Palestinian National Liberation Movement that still wants a state?

Behind the Bastards
It Could Happen Here Weekly 208

I agree 100%.

Behind the Bastards
It Could Happen Here Weekly 208

And I think that the continuation of this framework, the statehood framework that a lot of our kind of political elites in the Palestinian landscape continue to use.

Behind the Bastards
It Could Happen Here Weekly 208

And a lot of these, you know, countries in the global north use also to bypass the

with work that actually needs to be done after a genocide.

Behind the Bastards
It Could Happen Here Weekly 208

It's certainly a distraction in my view, but it also speaks to the renewal that needs to happen within Palestinian politics and within the PLO.

Behind the Bastards

But that's a bigger matter.

My next question was going to be on the Palestinian American diaspora.

Behind the Bastards
It Could Happen Here Weekly 208

In what ways do you think the Palestinian American diaspora is alike with people in historic Palestine, with other diasporas?

Behind the Bastards

I'm also wondering how well you think the Palestinian organizing groups and spaces, how well integrated are they into other activist issue areas?

Behind the Bastards
It Could Happen Here Weekly 208

Yeah, right, right.

Behind the Bastards
It Could Happen Here Weekly 208

I think we're definitely seeing more of an acceptance of that.

Behind the Bastards
It Could Happen Here Weekly 208

I agree with the limitations that you referenced.

Behind the Bastards
It Could Happen Here Weekly 208

I also sometimes do reflect on how matched the discussion is in the United States with the discussion in historic Palestine and what activists can do to kind of bridge some gaps that might emerge.

Behind the Bastards
It Could Happen Here Weekly 208

But of course, understanding that we do exist in a different political reality and we obviously will develop different views as a result of that.

Behind the Bastards
It Could Happen Here Weekly 208

Yep, I think I agree with that analysis.
