- How is the genocide in Gaza impacting the Palestinian public opinion in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem?
- How is the regional geopolitics in the middle east informing the Palestinian Authority’s policies in the occupied West Bank?
- How has been the role of the media in portraying the Palestinian narrative in the West?
- Has International Law been rendered obsolete when it comes to the question of Palestine?
- Given the unconditional American and Western support, has the Boycott Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) Movement been an effective tool in pressuring the Israeli regime?
- How does the genocide in Gaza factor in envisioning the future of a liberated Palestine? What are the main obstacles in the way of such a vision?
