Stunning series.

I’m now at the Bomber-Harris and Ord Wingate stage of arab repression.

Absolutely horrific.
In this episode @anitaanand.bsky.social & I are joined once again by Eugene Rogan, Prof of Middle Eastern History at Oxford, to discuss the War of 1948 which led to the creation of Israel, the bulldozing of 500 Palestinian villages & the ethnic cleansing of 750,000 Palestinians

Asked a dozen different people today if they thought Maccabi Tel Aviv fans should come to the UK.

No one said they should.

Jews so violent that Jews have to ban a football match, in Israel, between Jews & Jews.
