45 The Bomb Thrower

Recorded in May 2024, seven months after the deadly 7 October Hamas attacks on Israel, Clare and Yves are joined by Walkley Award-winning investigative journalist Antony Loewenstein, whose book The Palestine Laboratory was first published in May 2023. The dates matter, as numbers of Palestinian casualties grow and the genocide in Gaza continues to unfold. Where did Antony’s instinct to be an irritant germinate? How does researching against the grain of hegemonic power put him in the literal firing line? Why is WikiLeaks his go-to archival ground zero? And how do you document a genocide that is being livestreamed while the archives of a people are being reduced to rubble in an act of ‘politicide’?
