Damages Israeli Media WON'T Show You: Full Broadcast - Aber Kawas, Ollie Vargas & Sina Toossi

Here is the full broadcast of my discussions with Aber Kawas, Ollie Vargas & Sina Toossi — exclusively for YouTube members and Patreon supporters!

Aber Kawas is a community organizer and democratic socialist running to represent parts of Astoria, Sunnyside, Woodside, Ridgewood, Maspeth, Long Island City, Elmhurst, Glendale, and Jackson Heights. For more than 15 years, she has been at the front lines of the fight for working class New Yorkers — from the Fight for 15 to raise the minimum wage, to countering police surveillance and harassment, and organizing for immigration reform. Aber helped to develop and launch the Not On Our Dime Campaign alongside mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani to stop NY-based organizations from exploiting their non-profit status to fund Israel's human rights violations against Palestinians. She is the daughter of Palestinian refugees, born and raised in a working class family in New York City. Aber's father was detained by ICE and deported from the U.S. by the same cruel immigration system that is harming the people of Queens today.

Ollie Vargas is a Bolivian reporter now based in Beijing.

Sina Toossi is a Senior Non-Resident Fellow at the Center for International Policy, where he focuses on U.S.–Iran relations, Middle East foreign policy, & nuclear nonproliferation. His writing has appeared in Foreign Affairs, Foreign Policy, The Guardian, Al Jazeera, & other leading outlets. He regularly provides expert commentary in international media & has been recognized by the Middle East Policy Council as one of its "40 Under 40" rising leaders.
