Hello and elcome to Colonial Outcasts, the anti-imperialist podcast that needs a vacation, but is unlikely to get one. Today we are going to be doing a round table of the conflicts arising in the West Asia which I am calling the Global War on Terror 2.0 - and we’re doing 2.0 because 1.0 only lasted twenty years, killed millions from Afghanistan to Lybia, and accomplished pretty much nothing. AQ is still around, the Taliban are still around, there are open air slave markets in Lybia and the Islam...

An emergency episode with Dr. Altalla of the al-Aqsa Hospital in central Gaza who returns to provide a brief update on the latest influx of casualties as the result of Trump’s continuation of Biden’s blank check policy to supply Israel the tools it needs to “finish the job”. In the past 24 hours an estimated 400+ civilians have been slaughtered along with hundreds more injured.

It will be if insane if this totally reasonable interview gets taken down...

To that end, we are joined by James from Comrade Workwear. He runs Comrade Workwear which recently got into hot water with nearly every major corporation and the NYPD for a deck of playing cards he design...

So what we are talking about today is the state of the Democratic Party and how much they love to lose. If y’all took a break from the news cycle over the weekend you may have missed the story broken by politico about this DNC operative retreat where a bunch of democratic “strategists” gathered at an east coast resort to talk about how to win mid terms in 2026 and to take the Whitehouse in 2028 by doing the exact same thing they’ve been doing since 2015….

In the end, the shrieking chain-rattling ghost of Henry Kissinger is always right “It may be dangerous to be America enemy, but to be America’s friend is fatal.” He also said “America has no permanent friends or enemies, only interests.” Ukrainians and to a lesser extent Europeans are figuring out what it means to be Kurdish, and they are spiraling. Western Europeans, liberal elites and establishment figures are seeing the face the US presents to nations of the global south, and the truly shocki...

The Gaza ceasefire stands on the edge of a knife. This political and military reality brings back into focus, though it’s never gone away, the humanitarian situation in Gaza in the wake of the Israeli state policy of systematically dismantling medical infrastructure with the use of US weaponry and clumsily orchestrated direct action IDF raids on hospitals and hospital staff in the name of “finding Hamas.” To that end, we are joined by Dr. Mimi Syed, a board-certified emergency medicine physician...

Hello and welcome to Colonial Outcasts, the Anti-imperialist podcast that has way too much crap to talk about and not enough time to do it. It is February 18th and we are seeing titanic policy shifts in Europe, and West Asia - East Asia as well, but we won’t have too much time for that as the Trump Administration takes a more aggressive diplomatic stance towards Taiwan Independence as the Island Nation, territory, whatever you consider it to be, explores $10bn US arms deal to secure Trump’s supp...

This episode was structured off of the article "Imperialism in Crisis: Gaza, Trade Wars and Trump's Geopolitical Mayhem" by Elina Xenophontos, joining us tonight from London, England. An unstable West Asia security situation has global ramifications and this talk about a voluntary mass exodus of Palestinians from Gaza is unworkable, stilly, and as detached from reality as anything else the United States has done in the Levant over the past 20 years. Why is this scheme doomed to fail: well, we ar...

We weren’t going to do an episode today. They take a lot of research and prep, but we felt that we couldn’t not do an episode because President Orange Blob (aka Donal Drumpf) has said some completely asinine things, which he always does, but this instance is about Gaza. I spent a lot of last night talking to people who were rightly terrified by Trump’s remarks about the US occupying and controlling Gaza, but now is not the time to freak out - yet. So we are going to have a free-form conversation...

"Whiteness” is being used as it always has been: to separate exploited working class white people from intersectional solidarity and serve as buffer between marginalized peoples and the Elites. Today we are going to be talking about the new Trump administration and the driving force behind all their policies, its blitz of executive orders, the perverse need to control women’s bodies and their obsession with nativism - ie the policy of protecting the interests of native-born or established inhabi...

The thing I appreciated about the IOF is that they name their operations after their actual objectives: Operation Iron Wall = Operation increase apartheid. Today we discuss the new West Bank operation and the Palestinian Authority, which is neither Palestinian nor an Authority. Also we mention tech oligarchs. Cheers!

It's 2025 and Imperialism will now turn localize in the American continent and turn in on its own citizens, boomerang style. Today we are gonna be talking about oligarchy, Corporate liberal media enabling far-right politics, and the potential resurrection of the global war on terror in this new American Dark age. Gonna be fun!

Welcome to Colonial Outcasts for an impromptu Ceasefire episode. We may repost segments of this to MintPress News but for right now we are going to dive right in because there is a lot to talk about. What is this ceasefire? Is it viable? Why is it happening now? I know a lot of people are confused right now, and we also need to talk about how this ties into the Lebanese presidential elections, and the US Iran policy under the Trump administration, to that end we are joined by Batool Subeiti, ene...

Hello and welcome to or welcome back to Colonial Outcasts, the anti-imperialist podcast where we generally discuss the dirty work our governments are doing overseas.

I guess the intense emotions swirling around are a mixture of elation that Assad is deposed and despondency that the Axis of Resistance and the state of the Palestinian cause look to be in a pretty bleak state right now. Things looked like they were going well in terms of the Israeli state destroying itself and the US losing massive influence in the Region, and then within a week all this pressure that was building got released and the entire situation has taken a 180. Literally the Empire Strik...

This is a repost of my interview with Ghadi Francis and Batool Subeiti - follow @MintPressNews for more content like this! Many out there are confused by the sudden Ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah in Southern Lebanon, given that one of Hezbollah’s initial early operational imperatives was to not relent its military pressure on Israel until a ceasefire was reached in Gaza. That prospect, one of a ceasefire, seems more unlikely now, though some hold out hope that this ceasefire in Lebanon w...
