History of Israeli-Palestine: the Nakba (part 2/3) [3.9]
Description
This episode continues our discussion of the Nakba and the Israeli War of Independence, covering the initial phases of the civil war between Jews and Arabs in Palestine from November 1947 to March 1948. The episode highlights the ways in which sporadic acts of violence in the wake of the passage of the UN partition resolution created an inertia towards civil war, while also evaluating some of the strengths and weaknesses of both sides in the conflict. We'll also discuss some of the early massacres in the war, and learn how the notion of "retaliation" increasingly pushed the boundaries of what was thought of as acceptable acts of violence.
