Summary of the Show:
The podcast episode, hosted by Roifield Brown in London, delves into the historical complexities of the Six-Day War of 1967, its aftermath, and its impact on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The episode features two main guests: Benny Morris, an acclaimed Israeli historian, and Mitchell Newmark, an associate professor in the history department at the College of Arts and Letters in Sacramento, with a history PhD from UCLA.
Benny Morris on the Six-Day War's Outcomes:
"It shows that Israel has emerged as a dominant military power in the Middle East... but it also subordinates the Palestinians to Israeli rule... this triggers a reawakening of Palestinian nationalism."Mitchell Newmark on Israeli Settlements:
"Israel controls most of the borders with Jordan... but it transforms from a security issue about the West Bank into a greater Religious Jewish issue."Roifield Brown on the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict:
"I fervently believe that the Palestinian people do deserve a viable state somewhere which they can call home... and I fervently do believe that when there is a viable peace for the Palestinian people, the Israeli state will then also have peace."Hosted on Acast.
