Episode notes
This episode examines the use of Palestinian bodies—living and dead—as test subjects in a wide range of Israeli military, pharmaceutical, and psychological experiments. From psychotropic drug testing in prisons to the deliberate flooding of Gaza with synthetic opioids, we investigate how addiction, trauma, and medical deprivation have been engineered as tools of control.
We analyze the systemic withholding of medical care, the destruction of hospitals, the role of pharmaceutical firms, and the Israeli research infrastructure that turns human suffering into data. This isn’t neglect. It’s methodology. And the results are being exported.
Palestine is not just a site of occupation—it is a laboratory. And the refusal to be a clean result is itself a form of resistance.
