Dispossessing Palestinians, a talk by Ilan Pappe

To understand current events in Israel/Palestine and the reality on the ground underneath the so-called “peace process,” it’s essential to understand how the Israeli state was founded in 1948 by dispossessing hundreds of thousands of Palestinians. There’s no better guide to this history than Israeli historian Ilan Pappe, author of books including A History of Modern Palestine and The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine, so check out this radio broadcast on Against the Grain of a recent talk by Pappe.
