Tariq Ali highlighted a remarkable political divide in contemporary society, claiming the current support for Palestine versus the West's backing of Israel is reminiscent of the Vietnam War's social upheaval.
Ali posited that the current political landscape and support for Palestine are indicative of a deeper underlying crisis that is 'challenging the very nature of democracy' on a global scale.
In discussing South Asia, Ali noted Imran Khan's claims against U.S. interference in Pakistan's politics, while also pointing to the successful student-led uprising in Bangladesh as a significant movement.
Commenting on European politics, Ali pointed out the controversial appointment of Michel Barnier as France's prime minister by Macron, framing it against the rise of extreme right and anti-migrant sentiments.
