Ilan Pappe
About this listen
Renowned Israeli historian Ilan Pappe's groundbreaking book revisits the formation of the State of Israel. Between 1947 and 1949, over 400 Palestinian villages were deliberately destroyed, civilians were massacred, and around a million men, women, and children were expelled from their homes at gunpoint.
Denied for almost six decades, had it happened today it could only have been called "ethnic cleansing." Decisively debunking the myth that the Palestinian population left of their own accord in the course of this war, Ilan Pappe offers impressive archival evidence to demonstrate that, from its very inception, a central plank in Israel's founding ideology was the forcible removal of the indigenous population. This is an indispensable book for anyone interested in the current crisis in the Middle East.

Drawing on a wealth of untapped archival materials and the reports of generations of family members - mayors, judges, scholars, diplomats, and journalists - The Hundred Years' War on Palestine upends accepted interpretations of the conflict, which tend, at best, to describe a tragic clash between two peoples with claims to the same territory. Instead, Khalidi traces a hundred years of colonial war on the Palestinians, waged first by the Zionist movement and then Israel, but backed by Britain and the United States, the great powers of the age.

Published on the 15th anniversary of the Six-Day War that culminated in the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip, Pappe offers a comprehensive exploration of one of the world's most prolonged and tragic conflicts. Using recently declassified archival material, Pappe analyses the motivations and strategies of the generals and politicians-and the decision-making process itself - that laid the foundation of the occupation. Pappe paints a picture of what is to all intents and purposes the world's largest "open prison".

This landmark book, first published in 1978, remains one of the most influential books in the Social Sciences, particularly Ethnic Studies and Postcolonialism. Said is best known for describing and critiquing "Orientalism", which he perceived as a constellation of false assumptions underlying Western attitudes toward the East. In Orientalism Said claimed a "subtle and persistent Eurocentric prejudice against Arabo-Islamic peoples and their culture."

Ahed Tamimi is a world-renowned Palestinian activist, born and raised in the small West Bank village of Nabi Saleh, which became a center of the resistance to Israeli occupation when an illegal, Jewish-only settlement blocked off its community spring. Tamimi came of age participating in nonviolent demonstrations against this action and the occupation at large. Her global renown reached an apex in December 2017, when, at sixteen years old, she was filmed slapping an Israeli soldier who refused to leave her front yard. The video went viral, and Tamimi was arrested.

Necessary reading
This is necessary reading for anyone wishing to understand the seemingly complex yet actually simple reality taking place in Palestine.
I would highly recommend reading Rashid Khalidi’s The Hundred Years’ War on Palestine first.

Horrifying But Accurate truth
Fantastically researched. My only criticism is that I wish it didn’t jump back and forth in time but I think for the point of the book, it was necessary. Pappe even learned Arabic in order to get the full stories from the Palestinians. Although difficult in content, this is extremely important to bear witness to how the Zionists weaponized their trauma against another population. We must bear witness and reconcile the fact that the truth has been deliberately obscured from us. 10/10 read (or listen)

The Subjugation of Palestinian Arabs
Good presentation ! The books reader did a great job. This book refutes a lot of the material I’ve read that was written by Israeli authors.

absolutely loved the clarity and the insights
very insightful and honest look at the history of Israel by a Jewish author. to me the capacity to honestly look at the history of ones country deserves a tremendous amount of respect.
if we had more courageous people like him, we would not have wars. I am inspired and hope to be able to bring this courage and honestly into my life.
deep thanks.

Excellent history, unfortunate narration
This is a captivating book, based on primary sources and bravely told. The narrator's reliance on accents when quoting from sources is ridiculous and borders on the offensive. Never in all the non-fiction books I have listened to have I encountered this choice. Unfortunate and detracts from the listening experience. The consistent mispronunciation of the word "Nakba" is egregious. Still, I recommend the book. Well done.

A must-read on the history of Palestine
This is one of my favourite books on the subject. Understanding how the issues in Palestine started are key to understanding what is happening today. This is my go-to book when I recommend a book to anyone.

sloppy work in providing factual sources
This book travels thru events mostly between 1940-1948 , providing important oral history of Palestinians. However, since this book aspires to be a historical work, I expected it be accompanied with supporting data to reinforce the claims. Especially regarding the "established history", there was no effort made to provide contradicting sources that would support the new points of view offered by this book - except for in very few cases.
I was hoping to be presented with neutral and honest information that would help the reader paint a full picture, but the writer interprets the events while talking about them, without any explanation on how he arrived at those conclusions.
To conclude, if this book was named "Palestinians talk about 1948" that would be a valid title, as their story should be told. But for a historian to present this work without explaining the gaps and contradictions to other sources, does not do any favour to the individuals whose experiences should be told.
