No Readgrets Book Club Discussion on: Why Palestine?

If youโ€™ve ever wondered why people keep talking about Palestine, or the point of keeping up with a long-drawn conflict in the Middle East and what difference you could possibly make, this book is for you ๐Ÿ“–

Political analyst and podcaster Walid Jumblatt Abdullah takes on questions that Singaporeans have often raised about Palestine and examines myths (โ€œCould Gaza Have Been Singapore?โ€) and sheds light on the double standards of Western powers, to whom human rights seem to matter, except for where Palestine is concerned.
