The Palestinian Diaries with Dr Peter Slezak: Why Being Jewish Doesn’t Mean Being Zionist

31 Jul 2025 08:52am

In this unflinching episode, we speak to Australian philosopher and academic Professor Dr Peter Slezak, a philosopher and outspoken anti-Zionist advocate that has spent decades defending Palestinian rights.

As the child of Holocaust survivors, Dr Slezak offers a powerful moral lens on the crisis in Gaza, challenging the idea that support for Israel is synonymous with Jewish identity.

From the dangers of religious framing to the weaponization of Holocaust memory, he breaks down why Gaza is not a religious war, but a humanitarian emergency.
