The Interview
/ 2026 / … In a powerful and deeply personal conversation, political scientist Dr. Norman Finkelstein sits down with MP and former UK Labour Leader Jeremy Corbyn to analyse the ongoing crisis in Gaza, Western diplomatic inaction, and the media’s framing of the conflict. From evaluating ICJ proceedings to dismantling mainstream media “gatekeeper” tactics, Finkelstein and Corbyn provide an unsparing critique of current geopolitical realities and explain why Gaza has become a defining moral touchstone for a new generation. Beyond foreign policy, the pair explore the broader societal shifts shaping world politics today. Drawing on four decades of political activism, they compare today’s student movement to historical anti-Apartheid and anti-Vietnam War struggles, while examining the decline of social mobility, the commercialisation of higher education, and the impact of digital media on critical thinking and long-term political engagement. đ Norman Finkelstein’s new book ‘Gaza Gravediggers: An Inquiry into Corruption in High Places’ is out now: https://orbooks.com/catalog/gazas-gra… â Support Independent Journalism: Double Down News is 100% funded by viewers like you.
