Episode notes
In this edition of No Power Panel, Noam unpacks the week’s most urgent stories with clarity and conviction.
Headlines Unpacked:
Israel’s “double-tap” strike on Nasser Hospital in Gaza killed at least 20 people—including five journalists—sparking global outrage.
Mark Carney greenlights the Churchill port project, fast-tracking LNG exports to Germany under his new “major projects” bill.
Quebec plans to ban prayer in public, raising alarms over religious freedom and the targeting of marginalized communities.
Cultural Reaction & Personal Insight:
Noam reacts to Lindsay Ellis’s video essay, “The Unforgivable Sin of Ms. Rachel”—standing with Ms. Rachel against the wave of bad-faith criticism. As a Jewish anti-Zionist, he explains why anti-Zionism is not antisemitism, discusses the antisemitic roots of Israel’s founding, and makes the case for a one-state solution in Palestine. He also shares personal experiences of encountering real antisemitism, contrasting it with the weaponization of the term by Zionist defenders.
