“Israel is disintegrating from within,” Ilan Pappé says. In conversation with Mehdi Hasan and an audience of paid Zeteo subscribers on Zoom, acclaimed Israeli-British historian Ilan Pappé explains why Zionism is collapsing. In an intriguing conversation, the two touched on a wide range of topics, including:
- Pappé’s vision for a decolonized state for both Palestinians and Israelis, as discussed in his new book, ‘Israel on the Brink: Eight Revolutions That Could Lead to Decolonization and Coexistence’.
- Diet Zionism (“You cannot be a progressive colonizer, and you cannot be a socialist genocider.”)
- Whether he believes popular Palestinian leader Marwan Barghouti will be released from Israeli prison
- Israel as a settler-colonial project (“If the Jews are indigenous to Palestine, then so are all the Christians and the Muslims in the world.”)
- Plus, what Palestinians really want, models for non-violent decolonization, the fallout from alpha-male politics, fighting Nakba denial, and more.
In this Zoom Q&A, Pappé and Mehdi took questions from Zeteo’s paid subscribers.
