In this episode, we continue our discussion of the Nakba and the Israeli War of Independence, focusing on the critical period between March and May 1948 when Israeli forces went over to the offensive. This included not only the collapse of Palestinian resistance, but also the intentional expulsion of the majority of Arabs living in what would become the new Jewish state. The episode discusses the horrific massacre of Deir Yessin and the ethnic cleansing of cities like Haifa and Tiberias. As always we place these events in their proper historical context, showing the rationale behind them and how they laid the foundation for the contemporary Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
