In this episode of MEMO Conversations, we speak with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Benjamin Moser about his book Anti-Zionism: A Jewish History. We explore one of the book’s central arguments: Jewish opposition to Zionism has a long history, yet many of the people who voiced it have been written out of the story. We also discuss the history of Arab Jews and what it reveals about the idea that Jews and Arab have always been in conflict. Our conversation asks what this history can teach us at a time when opposition to Zionism is often conflated with anti-Semitism.

In this episode of Conversation with MEMO, Professor Avi Shlaim discusses the Britain Owes Palestine campaign and its legal case demanding that the UK acknowledge its historic responsibility for Palestine. He examines Britain’s role during the Mandate, the repression of Palestinians, the road to the Nakba and what meaningful accountability and reparation could look like today.

MEMO spoke to Motasem A Dalloul, a survivor of Israel’s genocide in Gaza, in the first of a new series of regular updates from the ground. Dalloul describes the daily struggle to survive: hunger, cold, the collapse of healthcare, and ongoing Israeli violations despite the so-called ceasefire.

In this episode of Conversations with MEMO, we explore a growing fracture inside the US right wing, particularly the MAGA movement, over Israel. While united for decades in its hostility towards Islam and Muslims, the American right now finds itself at a crossroads. The once seamless coalition is splintering between “America First” nationalists and staunch “Israel First” loyalists. Author and commentator Jamal Kanj joins us to unpack how this division came to be, and how pro-Israel voices in the US are attempting to reassert dominance over the national narrative on Palestine. We discuss the illusion of US-Israel “shared values,” the role of institutionalised propaganda, and the power of lobby groups like AIPAC in shaping foreign and domestic policy.

What if the global definition of anti-Semitism wasn’t only about protecting Jews — but also shaped by surveillance of Muslims and the politics of the War on Terror? In this MEMO conversation, Professor James Renton — historian of anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, empire, and global politics — uncovers the hidden history behind the IHRA definition of anti-Semitism, now adopted by governments and universities around the world.
