The War in Gaza through the Prism of History: An Interview with Rashid Khalidi
from Understanding Israel Palestine · host KKFI 90.1 FM
Send us Fan MailHistorian Rashid Khalidi discusses the current Israel-Hamas war in the context of the past century of Israeli settler colonialism and Palestinian resistance. The current war has seen Israel push Palestinians in Gaza from the north to the south and is another step in a process of ethnic cleansing and depopulation long pursued by Zionist forces and the state of Israel, supported first by Great Britain and then by the United States. An advisor to the Palestinian delegation to the 1991 Madrid Conference, the Columbia University professor says the 30-year failed U.S.-sponsored peace process opened the door to Hamas. While the United States has brokered peace beetween Israel and Arab countries, it has never made resolving the Israeli-Palestinian a strategic concern and has undermined peace by its one-sided support for Israel.
