A Very Short History of the IsraelāPalestine Conflict
'Ilan Pappe is the most original, radical and hard-hitting of Israelās "new historians".' Avi Shlaim, author of Three Worlds
The devastation of 7 October 2023 and the horrors that followed astounded the world. But the IsraelāPalestine conflict didnāt start on 7 October. It didnāt start in 1967 either, when Israel occupied the West Bank, or in 1948 when the state of Israel was declared. It started in 1882, when the first Zionist settlers arrived in what was then Ottoman Palestine. Ilan Pappe untangles the history of two peoples, now sharing one land. Going back to the founding fathers of Zionism, Pappe expertly takes us through the twists and turns of international policy towards IsraelāPalestine, Palestinian resistance to occupation, and the changes taking place in Israel itself.
