Since the ceasefire was announced late last year, Gaza has faded from the headlines. But the horror of life there has not stopped.

More than 1,000 Palestinians have reportedly been killed in Gaza since the ceasefire was announced in October, and thousands more have been wounded, as people continue to face a daily struggle for survival.

Independent journalist Antony Loewenstein, author of The Palestine Laboratory, has recently travelled through the Middle East, including the West Bank, and has been speaking to people in Gaza.

Today, Antony Loewenstein tells us what he saw in the West Bank, what he’s hearing from Gaza, and what it means for the future of Palestine 1,000 days on from the start of Israel’s war.

But some experts fear the bank may have gone too far – risking tipping Australia into a recession.

Today, Australia Institute chief economist Greg Jericho on why the RBA may have got it wrong, and the big corporate inflation-driver no one seems to be talking about.

“It’s dissent that will save us”: Amy Goodman’s mission to fight the power

When Donald Trump returned to the White House, he promised Americans a new era of prosperity.

Now, as Americans prepare to vote in midterm elections, that promise is being tested, and the voters who put Trump in power could determine how much of that power he has left.

With polls showing Democrats well placed to retake the House, and the Senate also within reach, Republican candidates are wrestling with the political cost of the president's unfulfilled promises, while Democrats hope to turn disillusionment into a political comeback after years of MAGA.

Today, Director of the Australia Institute’s International and Security Affairs Program, Emma Shortis on an election that will test how deeply Trump has changed America, and whether another vision of the country can take hold.
