I brought on Jasmine El-Gamal to discuss:
* Why Palestinians bear arms under Israeli occupation.
* Zohran Mamdani’s political and moral bravery.
* The dehumanization of Palestinians in the U.S. government and media.
* Should the U.S. be so involved in internal Lebanese affairs (i.e disarming Hezbollah)
* The pros and cons of engagement with the new government in Syria. Is it within American interests to do so.
* The U.S. unwillingness to reign in Israel’s destructive policies.
* What role Arab-Americans may play in the U.S. government in the years ahead.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
