Stop saying ‘modern day Israel or Palestine.’ There is no modern state of Palestine. Saying so suggests historical illiteracy and rank partisanship. It’s a made up nationality.
Another great noisier podcast ps I will kill you if you rate this podcast under five stars ⭐️
As usual, it is a delight to listen to John Hopkins. His delivery is a joy to hear. The material is thoughtful and, (hopefully), very well researched.
