challenging informative reflective sad slow-paced

5.0

 

part family story, part theory, part history, The Hundred Years’ War on Palestine by Rashid Khalidi was an incredible read. 

 

rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 

 

four things i now know to be true: 

 

1️⃣ from its very inception, israel has always been a white supremacist colonialist project. 
. 
2️⃣ israel has never been interested in palestinian statehood. 
. 
3️⃣ the genocide happening in gaza right now is not an anomaly. in fact, israel has been refining their tactics over time on palestinians and the middle east for decades. 
. 
4️⃣ the creation of the state of israel would not have succeeded without the direct support of Britain and the U.S.

🍉 everyone should read this book at least once. ceasefire now. palestine will be free.
