Ilan Pappe | What’s Next for Israel & Palestine
Sun 27 Apr 2025 | 4:00pm – 5:00pm

The devastation of 7 October 2023 and the horrors that followed astounded the world. But the Israel
Palestine conflict didn’t start on 7 October. It didn’t start in 1967 either, when Israel occupied the West
Bank, or in 1948 when the state of Israel was declared. It started in 1882, when the first Zionist settlers
arrived in what was then Ottoman Palestine.

Ilan Pappe untangles the history of two peoples, now sharing one land. Going back to the founding fathers of Zionism, Pappe expertly takes us through the twists and turns of international policy towards Israel Palestine, Palestinian resistance to occupation, and the changes taking place in Israel itself.
