Beyond Palestinian Vs. Israeli Thinking
We talked to Sam Shoman, a Palestinian from the West Bank who has worked in Israel and is capable of seeing both sides, to explore the nuance and intricacies of this complex narrative. More of a discussion and a learning exercise, than a debate, this was a fantastic opportunity to hear an all too rarely told story. Check out his book here.
The Israeli occupation of Palestine has been the longest military engagement in Modern History. The Palestinians have received more financial aid than any group in history (larger per capita than the Marshall plan). There's no shortage of news coverage nor opinions on Israel, Palestine, Zionism, Anti-Semitism, and Islamophobia.
Whatever you think you know on this highly controversial topic, take the time to listen to someone that's prepared to admit the failings of his own side, while being pragmatic about the future.
