"Partition was about creating a settler colonial state" w/ Abdel Razzaq Takriti (pt.1)

The brothers welcome historian Abdel Razzaq Takriti, the author of Monsoon Revolution: Republicans, Sultans, and Empires in Oman 1965-1976 (2016) and “Before BDS: Lineages of Boycott in Palestine,”  and co-creator of Thawra, a series from The Dig on modern Arab and Palestinian revolutionary history.   They take a deep dive into the history of Palestinian resistance in the 20th century, explore the difference between eliminationist and genocidal forms of settler colonialism, discuss the mutilation of Palestine in 1948 to make way for the last settler-colony in a world on the brink of an anti-colonial revolution, the subsequent rise of Fatah and the Palestine Liberation Organization, and the role of Arab states in helping and hindering the quest for Palestinian liberation.
