25. The Hundred Years' War on Palestine-Dr Rashid Khalidi

A war is never a mere conflict or struggle between two or more people or communities. It is larger than that. It starts way before it has actually began and ends way after its designated termination. The Israeli–Palestinian conflict is one of the world's most enduring conflicts, with the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip reaching 54 years of conflict. While a lot of scholars also deem that the conflict has a history of  more than 100 years. Rashid Khalidi's 100 Years'  War on Palestine is one such account that elaborates the history of the region not from the observers standpoint but from the first person's experiences. Khalidi explains how the conflict in Palestine is a waged war  and why Palestinians continue to pose a stiff challenge to Israel’s growing ambitions. To dive further into the other perspective of the conflict our host @chauhanritika_  conversates with Dr Rashid Khalidi,  Edward Said Professor of Modern Arab Studies at Columbia University, and director of the Middle East Institute of Columbia's School of International and Public Affairs.----------------------------------------------- We invite you to engage with us on social media, share your thoughts and experiences, and join the conversation.
