19 May 2025
Who, instead of Hamas, could represent a peaceful Palestinian leadership? Why does Marwan Barghouti remain the most popular leader in Palestine despite being in jail for over 20 years, a period during which more than 50% of the population was not yet born? How do the Occupied territories remain hopeful during the ongoing war in the region?
Rory and Alastair are joined by Marwan Barghouti's son, Arab Barghouti, to discuss all this and more.
