On this episode of Going Underground we speak with renowned writer, filmmaker and activist Tariq Ali. He discusses the mass protests sweeping the US, UK and EU against Israel’s slaughter of the Palestinian people in Gaza and the indifference of governments to the demands of their masses, along with the leaders’ refusal to call for a ceasefire. He says Netanyahu’s government is trying to quash any possibility of a Palestinian state while the US is fuelling Israeli arrogance, as US carrier strike groups stand guard to defend Israel against possible intervention from Iran.
