The 100 Year History of Israel-Palestine

11/12/23 • 88 min

The history of Israeli colonisation of Palestine is often described as too complicated to learn, and so when looking at events that occur in contemporary Palestine, everything lacks necessary context. In this episode of the Let's Talk Palestine Podcast, we try to give you a simplified description of key events that have occurred since the colonisation of Palestine began. Namely, we'll be taking you through the origins of the Zionist movement, the colonial period under the British Mandate, the Nakba (Palestinian Catastrophe), as well as more modern history such as the 1967 war, and the Oslo Accords.

The Israeli government is currently taking advantage of the fact that everyone's eyes and ears are fixed on the Gaza Strip by accelerating its own agenda in the West Bank to completely ethnically cleanse it. All of these details (+ more) are discussed in this episode so that we can shed light and expose the Zionist state for what it is; a genocidal, settler-colonial regime. Join us!
