Friday the 13th Special ‘The Labour Party Conference’ and ‘Israel at War’ / with David Pratt Thank you for all your questions for David Recommendations: Stuart: The Reckoning Factual drama examining the crimes of Jimmy Savile, with testimony from survivors. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/p0g4swnr/the-reckoning Eamonn: Race across the World In a frenetic race across the world, travellers can choose any route they like - but no flights or phones are allowed. On the trip of a lifetime, which pair will finish first? https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0002tvs  David: We Could Have Been Friends, My Father and I: A Palestinian Memoir The author and activist Raja Shehadeh reflects on his complex relationship with his late father - fellow activist Aziz - in this searing and emotionally candid memoir that views the Palestinian struggle through the prism of a singular family dynamic. A vocal and fearless opponent, Aziz resists under the British mandatory period, then under Jordan, and, finally, under Israel. As a young man, Raja fails to recognise his father's courage and, in turn, his father does not appreciate Raja's own efforts in campaigning for Palestinian human rights. When Aziz is murdered in 1985, it changes Raja irrevocably. This is not only the story of the battle against the various oppressors of the Palestinians, but a moving portrait of a particular father and son relationship. https://www.waterstones.com/book/we-could-have-been-friends-my-father-and-i/raja-shehadeh/9781788169974  This is the news media and article that David mentioned Israel Can’t Imprison Two Million Gazans Without Paying a Cruel Price https://www.haaretz.com/opinion/2023-10-09/ty-article-opinion/.premium/israel-cant-imprison-2-million-gazans-without-paying-a-cruel-price/0000018b-1476-d465-abbb-14f6262a0000
