Episode first aired: December 2020
For decades we have spoken of the ‘Israel-Palestine conflict’, but what if our understanding and framing of the issue has been wrong all along?
That’s the argument of our 2021 book, Decolonizing Israel, Liberating Palestine. Joining us in conversation this month is the author, Jeff Halper, former Director of the Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions (ICAHD) and a founding member of the One Democratic State (ODS) Campaign.
We discuss the characteristics of a settler-colonial project, the unfeasibility of a two-state solution, Palestinian refugees’ right to return, and the ODS campaign’s call for a decolonial approach and a single democratic state.
