I have often been asked about the reasons for the Czech Republic’s uncritical support of Israeli actions.

I am happy that I can now refer to the forum published by the Czech Journal of International Relations that features a range of experts on different aspects of the Czech policy on Israel 🧵 1/7

Some time ago, @rola-husseini.bsky.social presented a fascinating keynote lecture focusing on the double standards of Western promotion of women's rights in the Middle East as opposed to the debate on freedom of religion in the West.

However, how does this debate resonate elsewhere? 1/x

A little late on this site, but happy to share my new article in Middle East Critique!
The article explores the Preventing Violent Extremism agenda in Lebanon and politics of its focus on the (assumed) link between violent extremism and weak social cohesion.
