In Gaza now, it’s worse than ethnic cleansing | Centre Stage

In this episode of Centre Stage, our guest is Ilan Pappé. He’s an Israeli historian and professor at the University of Exeter. Pappé is known for his outspoken views on the Israeli-Palestinian question - drawing both praise and criticism. He’s the author of several books including "The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine", in which he challenges the traditional Israeli narrative over the establishment of Israel in 1948.
In today’s episode, Pappé discusses the dangers of the Zionist ideology and its impact on Israel and Palestine, the historical context of October 7, and his vision for a one-state solution.

Pappe is a great historian. He has deprogrammed himself unlike the Zionist. Fantastic interview.

[@paulgibby6932]

We need de-programming in the US also. It's in process, but not organized. We have historians like the late Howard Zinn, Daniel Immerwahr ("How to Hide an Empire") but there is an active resistance (of course) to revisionist history re: treatment of indigenous people and the racism that goes back to slavery and to the present. It seems many (all?) nations develop narratives and educational systems to keep their myths alive. More power to Pappe

[@aviava7097]

It's really hard to do it as Israeli Zionist without any incentives (from my own experience :) Might be more beneficial to 'deprogram' westerns so they will change the current conditions, which will give Israelis a incentive to change.

[@jenkins7459]

It's merely reprogramming. He's a propagandist not a historian.

[@mariaejose4437]

@@jenkins7459 I think you never read one of his books. His assertions are the result of logical deduction from facts and sustained answers to questions raised from proven sequences of facts. A propagandist just uses slogans and even false facts to force others to accept their ideology. I don't think Ilan Pappé is a propagandist at all. He is a scholar historian who cares about facts, not about ideology. He knows that ideologies themselves are just facts shaped by history and you need to be aware about that or you will be fooled by them.

Zionist? So does Israel not have the right to exist? Is that how Europe responds to their uninvited immigrants, by attacking them as occupiers? Jews have been in Israel for over one hundred years. 80 percent of Jews in Israel were driven there from neighboring countries in the Middle East. Palestinians have to start taking some of the blame and responsibility for their predicament. Most Jews would love a peaceful and prosperous Palestine.

Thanks for this insightful interview. It is nice to see a positive vision of the future coming from a very wise man. I live in South Africa, and have since 1983. The other day I was at the Barber Shop, it is owned and run by a Muslim man from Indian heritage. His staff is young Zulu men and women. During my haircuting session, the clientele that came through were Indian males, white males, and me an American expat male. To listen to the banter and leg pulling amoungst all ensundry was heart-warming and cheering to the spirit. In 1983 this group would not have ever been allowed to even assemble. South Africa, with all its warts, has made the transition that Professor Pappé envisions for Palestinians and the Israelis that want to stay as equals. Right now they don't know what they are missing. Free Palestine and freedom for the Palestinians ❤️❤️❤️🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

Britain didn't give away any land, this is an Israeli invention. The British goal was to create a Jewish ruling class in Palestine, just as the French were doing in Syria with the Alawites. This is about territory for governance, not land. Land ownership is private property, at no point was this "given away". As Britain became aware that the zionists had no intention of living along side the existing population, and were going to be violently removing them, Britain did actually start to put the brakes on... not very hard, we're still talking extreme racist times, but the zionists started getting support from Stalin, getting huge weapons imports from Czechoslovakia, and there was a lot of violence between the zionists and the British. But, after the war, there were some 300,000 holocaust survivors stuck in camps in Germany, and this was a real problem, as the population was deeply indoctrinated into the idea that it was Jewish people who were responsible for all the problems, and nothing would be better until they were gone. The zionists didn't really want the survivors going there, seeing them as probably the "bad ones" who saved themselves by selling out others, so couldn't be trusted, but Ben Gurion was basically bribed with getting legal recognition of the state in return for accepting a load of the survivors. The zionists began the massacres in november 1947, as British forces were preparing to leave. We turned a blind eye, to get peace in Europe, we condemned the Palestinians to eternal violence and terror. When the holocaust survivors arrived, they had empty homes to stroll right into. The zionists lied to them, exploiting their experience in Europe to control them, telling them "they hate us, we defended ourselves", trapping Palestinians in a narcissistic relationship where everything they do to try and escape punishment is interpreted as aggression that requires further punishment... ie, victim inversion. But make no mistake, the zionists stole the land with guns, they were extremely brutal, nobody gave it to them.

I would love to see AJ have Professor Rashid Khalidi on this series. His work complements Professor Pappe’s nicely.

May god have mercy to Palestinian and god bless this man for standing up with humanity 😢

I love both Israelis and Palestinians and I pray one day they will both live in peace .This man is wise and brave he should lead .

[@meetings3071]

Indeed.

[@Simon.the.Likeable]

Everyone who was there lived in peace side by side for centuries. Then something changed when an "-ism" was imposed.

[@shamim621]

​@@Simon.the.Likeableexactly 💯 that

[@mariahewitt9787]

​@@Simon.the.Likeable Yes, Zionism.

[@dianacasey6002]

[@DomanToha]

[@user-cs8zc6gf6t]

[@coronato7988]

illan pappe is a courageous voice for truth

[@ghalibgalant9750]

À very thoughtful insight into what is possible. Thank you Prof Pape

[@user-qf1zg4zz8j]

Ilan Pappe has such a clear, quiet understanding. I so want to believe his vision can come to pass. His book "The ethnic cleansing of Palestine" is requisite reading for people on a journey of understanding.

[@blackbird3297]

What a bold individual on his own people... when they are up to flipflop in what is necessary...

[@MohamadHadi-vs6ww]

This man convinced me and answered the questions I have asked myself, why, why people hate each other like this. Because of the school system and the teachings. Wow

[@yasserel-harmil535]

What a man! Great thoughts

[@WaseemSahal]

Nice truthful person..

[@Thewestslope]

This is the most compelling argument for a one-state solution that I have encountered to date.

[@ice-cream313]

You know it's a genocide when Palestinians are labelled biblical Amalek and 1 samuel 15:3 is used to justify it.

[@aniankh]

Zionist mindset.

[@meetings3071]

​@@user-it5fr4ol5f Alan White, surely you are not trying to justify Genocide? ❤️ 🇵🇸 🤍 🇵🇸 🖤 🇵🇸 💚

[@myrtillesm3532]

1948 plus years of mistreatment and disrespect led unfortunately to Oct 7th. It's a consequence not a cause

[@Simon.the.Likeable]

Psalm 110 tells them that their enemies will be their footsools. Isaiah 61 tells them foreigners will be their plowmen and vinedressers. Deuteronomy 15 tells them how to reign over many nations. Their Tanakh is full of useful information for them.

" The first time the phrase “human animal” was recorded in history was by himmaliar, in The Posen speech to SS officers (6 October 1943) - On the 7th, it is crucial to understand that there were no direct attacks on civilians, only collateral damage. Out of the 1148 total names on haaret dataset, 473 military and 675 were civilians. Ratio of civilians to military personnel killed on the 7th was 1 . 4 : 1 - lower than any of the iTf "mowing" operations, which has a ratio of 7 : 1 According to UN OCHA data from 2008 to 2022; The collateral damage on the 7th was significantly lower than any of the ITf "mowing" operations, which had a ratio of 7:1 with 1,023 military personnel out of 6,541 total. On the 7th, with 473 military (418 were iTf military personnel, 55 belonged to the police) out of 1148 total, the ratio of civilians to military personnel was a mere 1.4:1 When including all casualties, not just deaths, the collateral damage ratio of the "mowing" operations is a staggering 162:1 From the 161,233 accumulated civilian casualties over only 14 years of "mowing" operations. A 162 :1 ratio means that for every 162 civillians, 1 military personnel is a casualty. The 7th had a ratio of 1.4:1, more than a hundred times lower. The 473 are - 55 soldiers, 13 privates, 59 corporals, 200 sergeants (45 of whom were sergeant majors), 48 commanders, 32 lieutenants, 5 lieutenant colonels, 6 colonels, 37 officers, 10 inspectors, 6 intendents, and 2 Lance Corp.
