Future Perfect: Antony Loewenstein Exposes the Machinery of Oppression
Dylan Bird speaks with investigative journalist Antony Loewenstein about his new podcast series, The Palestine Laboratory Podcast.
With his two decades of reporting on Israel-Palestine and the bestselling book The Palestine Laboratory: How Israel Exports the Technology of Occupation Around the World, Antony has investigated Israel using occupied Palestinian territories as a testing ground for weapons and surveillance technology.
Antony's new podcast expands on that research, examining the unsettling financial gains for Israeli arms manufacturers and how anti-Palestinian racism fuels a dangerous military mindset. He says: “The reality is that they have made Gaza unliveable, and ultimately they should be held accountable for that.”
