Today's show offers several perspectives on the upcoming bid in September by the Palestinian Authority to seek recognition and statehood for Palestine.We also look at the impact of this strategy on the wider struggle for peace, justice and self determination in Palestine. The show includes a taped interview on Palestine Studies TV with legal scholar Victor Kattan followed by readings of excerpts from various news articles offering a counterpoint to his legal analysis.
Despina, Victor Kattan, program founder Sherif Fam (1936-2010), producers Martin Voelker, Stan Robinson, Steve Cornie, and the entire staff of WZBC
