I’ve just finished a 3 city, 8 day book tour in Indonesia for my just released Bahasa Indonesian edition of The Palestine Laboratory.

It started at the Jakarta International Literary Festival and then moved onto Yogyakarta and Bandung.

So many highlights and memories including a warm response to my work and book and deep connections to the injustices inflicted in Palestine:

During my recent book tour across Indonesia, discussing and promoting my book, The Palestine Laboratory, I spoke at the wonderful venue, Warung Sustra, in Yogyakarta. It was a fascinating conversation about Israel, Palestine and Indonesian attitudes towards the Middle East.

My latest monthly column for the UK outlet, Middle East Eye:

There’s a desperate need for a moral reckoning among the global Jewish population after more than two years of Israeli-inflicted horrorsin Gaza.

From the mass starvation of Palestinians to AI- and cloud-enabled killing, Jewish complicity, both in Israel and across the Diaspora, has been a profound moral failure.

I write this as a Jew who has opposing Israel’s suffocating hold on the Jewish Diaspora, and as a man whose family was murdered by the Nazis in the Holocaust.

Since 7 October 2023, we have witnessed a genocide on our watch, as Jews and as citizens.

Now is the time for accountability – including international war crimes trials – not only for those who actively participated in it, but for Jews who wholly embraced the carnage from London to Sydney out of racism, fear, revenge or sheer bloodlust.
