The professor cites Zohran's "refusal to budge, to soften his critique of the state of Israel" as a critical aspect of his rise to power.

We speak with the acclaimed academic and writer Mahmood Mamdani, who has just released a new book, Slow Poison: Idi Amin, Yoweri Museveni, and the Making of the Ugandan State. Mamdani, who has taught at Columbia for decades, was raised in Uganda and first came to the United States in the 1960s to study. He and his family were later expelled from Uganda during Idi Amin's dictatorship. The book "is about the reversal of the anti-colonial movement" in Uganda, says Mamdani. "The anti-colonial movement fought to create a nation out of a fragmented country … and I speak of slow poison as a gradual, piecemeal, step-by-step cutting up of the country so that you no longer have a single citizenship."

During a controversial Oval Office meeting last week, President Trump defended Mohammed bin Salman when a reporter asked about the Saudi crown prince's involvement in the 2018 murder of Washington Post opinion columnist Jamal Khashoggi. "The man sitting in the White House next to President Trump is a murderer," says Sarah Leah Whitson, executive director of DAWN, an organization founded by Khashoggi in 2018. To Whitson, Trump's main motivation for cozying up to Saudi Arabia is financial. "The U.S. government [is] promising to deploy American men and women soldiers to defend the Saudi crown prince … in exchange for profits for U.S. companies, U.S. businesses and U.S. officials."
