No State Solution?: Palestine, UNRWA, Gaza, Ukraine, Iran, & Why Borders Are Failing the Middle East

In this gem of an episode at the Habibi House, we break down the idea of a “No State Solution”  and why the future of Palestine may lie beyond both the one-state and two-state frameworks.Our guest Charles McBryde returns after traveling to the West Bank, Lebanon,  Ramallah, Nablus, T*l Av*v, and Bethlehem while finishing his upcoming documentary on UNRWA and the war on Palestinian identity. From collapsing in the Church of the Nativity to navigating the West Bank hospital system, he shares firsthand experiences inside occupied Palestine and why he believes the war on Gaza and the war on UNRWA are part of the same political project.We go deep into:• Why the two-state solution is collapsing• The rise of Israel’s far-right political generation• UNRWA and the erasure of Palestinian refugee identity• The difference between supporting a government and supporting a people• Ukraine vs Russia and the geopolitics of resistance• NATO, imperialism, and mineral politics• Borders, sovereignty, and the limits of the nation-state• AI, tech monopolies, and the future of digital powerThis conversation challenges mainstream narratives about Israel, Palestine, Gaza, Zionism, imperial power, and global conflict. If you’re looking for nuance beyond slogans... this is it.Resistance, sovereignty, and identity are not simple binaries. We unpack the gray areas.Subscribe for long-form conversations on Palestine, the MENA diaspora, geopolitics, media, and cultural power.—#Palestine #Gaza #UNRWA #Israel #Ukraine #Zionism #TwoStateSolution #MiddleEast #Geopolitics #HabibiHouse
