David and Sayeeda discuss the pro-Palestinian protests in London where the head of the Campaign Against Antisemitism clashed with police, as well as chaos on campus at Columbia University across the pond.

Are antisemitism and Islamophobia being ‘weaponised’ to shut down debate about Israel and Islam? And is having an ‘Islamophobia’ definition doing more harm than good, asks a top think tank?

2. How can Israel protect itself from Hamas without causing a catastrophe in Gaza? (10:55)

4. Why don't British Muslims and Muslims worldwide collectively mourn for the 377, 000 Muslims recently killed in the current war in Yemen or China, or Pakistan or Myanmar in the same way that they mourn the deaths in Palestine? (33:30)
5. If I condemn Israeli policy regarding settlements, does that make me an anti Semite? (45:28)

This week our hosts tackle the Queers for Palestine led boycott of Eurovision, gay rights in the Middle East and accusations of Israeli “pink-washing”, as well as the government's anti-BDS bill.

David and Sayeeda tussle with accusations thrown at the beleaguered broadcaster from all sides and then tackle the thorny subjects of freedom of speech and blasphemy. Should anything be off-limits in comedy and culture?

The Academy Awards were mired in controversy last weekend as the conflict in Gaza took centre stage. David and Sayeeda discuss director Jonathan Glazer’s speech and why there’s still a way to go when it comes to Jewish and Muslim representation on screen, from Oppenheimer to Borat. And, as Ramadan begins, Sayeeda explains why it’s taken on a new poignancy this year due to the conflict and starvation of civilians in Gaza. David explains why Jews in Britain must not be held accountable for Israel’s actions. Things got so heated, Sayeeda had to cool down...

A week on from George Galloway’s victory in Rochdale, Sayeeda Warsi and David Baddiel discuss why Gaza seems to be THE issue for so many British Muslims. And in a week when the Prime Minister made his state of the nation speech about extremism, is the government ready to act on threats against Jews? Or is this just a way to muzzle Muslims?
