This is a good episode on right wing Anti-Zionism and how it has nothing to do with Palestinian liberation. One aspect that wasn't mention is its parallels to right wing Zionism which co-opts Jewish suffering the same way Fuentes, Carlson, and Owens co-opt Palestinian suffering for white supremacy.
Confronting the Anti-Zionist Right
Jewish Currents discusses Nick Fuentes on Tucker Carlson, Norman Finkelstein on Candace Owens, and the newfound influence of the anti-Israel right.

African leaders push for recognition of colonial crimes and reparations
Algerian foreign minister says African countries and peoples continue to pay a heavy price for colonialism
African leaders are pushing to have colonial-era crimes recognised, criminalised and addressed through reparations.

This is all true but
1) under no definition are we currently at war with Venezuela under domestic US law
2) since we aren’t, the initial strike was just as much a murder as the follow up
The failure to understand this by a huge range of actors is really driving me up the wall.

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime.
If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder.
It’s that simple.

Netanyahu "asks" the Israeli president Herzog to cancel his trial.
This is not a pardon request, in any meaningful sense. Netanyahu has not accepted any wrongdoing, and is not planning to step down.
There's a good chance Herzog accepts the request. Netanyahu made him president for this role.
