Thank you, Tom, for interviewing Dr. Khalidi. Your enthusiasm, Tom, towards the information in the book, as well as the mutual respect towards one another, was heartfelt. I am excited about reading the book, so, I, too, can intelligently, and calmly, discuss the issues that many people say is "too complicated" to understand. Perhaps that's just a dismissive excuse to avoid a pertinent conversation.
Really glad you used your platform to spread truth and information. You have my upmost respect!
Read his book, The Hundred Years War on Palestine. No longer can I say the issue is complicated. I’ve been eager to learn more about the war on Palestine and am learning about even more issues going on in the US. Not only am I more curious about how I’m able to live the life I lead but am more cautious about information I consume and what I participate in. Thanks again for a great video Tom.
Issue is certainly not complicated. Whether from Biblical or Islamic point of view, Palestine or more appropriately Holy Land is given to only one group of people. That is Israel and Jews.
Anyone else, come directly against God Almighty and His promises to His people Israel.
@@truthprevails5173😂 those are just white western people excuse to colonize land in Asia, Africa and America.

@@truthprevails5173 I am sure God Almighty would approve how Zionists are starving and murdering children. Revelation 3:9 - Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do LIE!!! Revelation 2:9 - I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews!!! God's chosen people, by who? Satan?
My gosh, how this beautiful man has stuffed the most important facts and understandings into one podcast for us is phenomenal. Thanks to all of you! Terrific helpful podcast!
That’s because he has left out lots of facts that could tell a different narrative.
I have studied this subject for over twenty years and can say honestly that everything the professor says is true.
He is the protege of Edward said
@@den264 Truth by omission you mean. He left out key facts that vilifies Isreal. For instance, Israel did not "invade" Lebanon for no reason. It began with an attempted assassination of the Israeli ambassador in London, Israel attacked PLO targets in Lebanon on June 4, 1982. The PLO responded with rocket and artillery barrages, and Israel retaliated by sending ground troops into Lebanon, in a mission titled “Operation Peace for the Galilee.”
There's always "cause and effect", lots of "effects" being mentioned here with the "cause" intentionally left out. Only idiots never ask "why".
@@bri_____1970And he is telling of weaponed power of Israelis, but do not mention the fact that in1948 the biggest and most powerful Arab states started big war against new established state, it was not Arabs of Palestine who fought, it was Transjordan, Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Egypt. Saudi Arabia, Yemen. United Arab whose forces was double of Israelis. USA didn't supplied Israel with weapon, it was bought from Czech Republic, remnants of old weapons after the war between the USSR and Germany, and everything that could be bought from private sellers of weapons. Israelis was poorly weapons, in the minority, but it was the question of existence, and they won. From Khalidi I did not hear anything near the truth. The result was Israelis gaining of some territories in accordance of international war right as far as the Arabs started it and lost. The other parts of Palestine was taken av Egypt and Jordan, and it was no longer the will of Arabs of Palestine to establish of own start. So it was until in 1968 Arab countries decided to get rid of this tiny problem - Israel. And lost again.
I doubt that he does know nothing of it. He just does not give the all facts.
Why?
The same with other episodes: not whole truth.
I am so sorry, because he is not the worst of those who present the story of questions of this region.
I expected more honesty, really, from a decent man.
I enjoyed this interview with Prof Khalidi. Thanks Tom
thats because you dont have knowledge on the matter. He gave very misconstrued information
@@madcatter1 One sided.
@@annaan8232 too bad people have such little understanding of history and are fooled by these so called professors who speak calmly and seem to be knowledgeable to the unsuspecting individuals
@@madcatter1 You are incorrect. Everything he's saying agrees with what Israeli historians have discovered after the declassification of Israeli and British documents from the mid-40s. See books by Ilan Pappe, Avi Shlaim, and Simha Flappan. (Pappe and Shalim also have RUclips vids.)
@@danaplaczek9664 No, its actually not true. Why cant we find any history on such a nation? Their leaders, kings, rulers, currency, flag, Day of Independence? Biblical sources, Archaeological artifacts etc. Makes you wonder doesnt it?
Wonderful interview! Thank you, Tom and Prof. Khalidi.
Tom this is awesome.. thanks for doing this.. I will share with many
Wasn't expecting a post like this from you but it's absolutely brilliant and I'm pleasantly surprised.
I will take one of your tours for sure.
Thanks again
Tom, thanks for taking a huge risk to do this very excellent interview with esteem Professor Dr. Khalid. I have shared it on X. 🌟🌟🌟
Me too !
All respect Tom from Egypt, you have done a great efforts to prepare and read about the conflict, thank you for such a great interview and I am one of your followers and admirers from now and on. Thank you again
Great video, Tom! Incredibly informative. I would love to see more videos like this from you in the future
Very elucidating. Thank you for this interview with Professor Khalidi.
Professor Khalidi sprinkles truth in his lies. His tenure will finish.
❤ good to get the story summarized by one who really knows. This was the best khalidi interview -for my needs - that I have heard.
Lol, very one sided partisan narrative of history.
The truth doesn't take sides.
The heart-breaking betrayal of the Palestinian people is that Professor Khalidi, for all his fluency and eloquence, does little more than perpetuate the false promise that the clock can be turned back to pe-1948.

This was really great. Really appreciate you doing this, and orofessor Khalidi for being so generous with time.
Congrats Tom, you're raising the bar with each video. It seems like the law degree is coming in handy after all 😊 Keep up the great work 👏👏👏
as a social scientist, congratulations for posting this video, Tom! cheers from Brazil
Came for the neighborhood tours. Staying for the enlightenment on current events. You are becoming something more, Tom. Congrats
If the United Nation's continues to waffle on the creation of Palestine, it too deserves Accountability.
The UN created Israel.
It gave half or more of the Palestinians' territory to Israel.
The UN had no right to do this.
Ever since the war in Palestine
Has been a civil war.
The Palestinians are not terrorists.
The Palestinians are the legitimate
RESISTANCE.
ZIONISTS ARE THE INVADERS.
THEY ARE COLONISTS.
THEY HAVE NO RIGHT TO BE IN PALESTINE.
Thanks. Wasnt expecting this from you, Tom. Made me smile.

Great interview, Tom. Thank you for acknowledging and having the guts to address the this oppressing situation.
This was a fantastic interview. Highly recommend the full interview. Its so eye opening
It is unbelievable how little of the truth is known. I now believe that most news we consume is generated by PR concerns.
You won’t get this perspective in the mainstream media!

The mainstream media is full of propaganda that is controlled by corporate interests… and corporate interests also control government, because the US is an oligarchy, not a democracy!

This is BS please try to look at other sources
Such an important interview - to understand the history / background of the war in / on Palestine, and to hear about Dr. Khalidi's own experience. We need more such conversations, and more voices to be heard / featured.
So much suffering has been imposed on innocent Palestinian people - and between 30 000 and 40 000 killed since Oct 7, on top of the years of occupation. How can this be justified???!
Urban warfare is a horrible thing
Please try to find examples of urban warfare being “humane” or better targeting fighters vs civilians.

hes wrong in his history, its obviously a biased view and not factual. How can they be considered occupied when there is no history of such a people, no declaration of Independence, flags, currency, archaeological facts or anything else to back any of these claims?

Greetings from Spain! I enjoyed so much this conversation with the professor of Columbia University.
My knowledge on this conflict was broadened!
Thanks for this opportunity.
Thank you so much for posting this.
A brilliant professor of History of Israeli Palestinian conflict.
I'm Italian and until October, I knew nothing about what was
really going on, between Palestine and Israel .
The Israeli propaganda in Italy is unbelievable. They never taught us about Palestine in school ,about zionism, the partition ,the Nakba.
I since have been educating myself ,and I've read 4 essays, and personal experiences of people who were tortured in Israeli prisons, at the end of the seventies.
I now have a clear picture of reality,military occupation ,apartheid ,settler colonialism etc .Thank you very much for this informative interview ,I stopped watching mainstream news.
I am italian too and now I realize that have been completely manipulated for years.
you still know nothing if you listen to this BS .

In fact Palestine does not exist. Palestine is the name given by Roman Emperor Hadrian in the year 134 ad in remembrance of the Philistines who were Mycenaean Greek and Cretan Greek and was the old enemy of the Jews. Emperor Hadrian renamed it from Judea Israel to Palestina as an insult to the Jews after the destruction of the 2nd Jewish temple. Arabs didn’t arrive till 6th century!!!! Jews where there from at least 5,000 years before it is their ancient homeland.

Extraordinary interview. Thank you.
Appreciate you expanding your channel to have experts and friends in these recent discussions on history and social issues. I am really engaged by your eye for niche content and expanding outside of the NYC tours. Would love to see some walking tours with guests involved. Keep up the great work!
So looking forward to watching this very soon, Tom! Just saw it posted & want to wait to watch when I could give it my undivided attention. I got as far as “sorry I’m talking so fast, I drank a lot of coffee.” 😅 I can relate! Hehe
I’m a Hispanic with Jewish lenient on my father side. I know nothing of this conflict, but I was interested to learn more about it so I asked an Israeli. I told him that I know it’s a complicated situation and he replied “ no it’s not complicated at all. It’s very simple , Israelis expect Palestinians to get up and leave Palestinian Territories so the Israelis occupy them and Palestinians fight back and that’s why you have the conflict.”
Thank you for this great interview about an important subject.
very educational. thank you both.

“I want my legs back,” the girl cried in Arabic.
“I want my legs back.”
You can’t have your legs back, little girl.
They have been eaten by a hungry machine
who needs them for fuel to power its gears.
The machine needs your legs to keep the sky raining bombs
and to make its death robots fly.
Your legs power the bulldozers digging mass graves
and the tanks blowing holes in the hospitals.
A glorious kingdom is held together
by the amputated limbs of children.
A pentagon-shaped castle is built from the bones
of the amputated limbs of children.
Wall Street werewolves and bank boys dine
on the amputated limbs of children.
Movie stars treat their wrinkles with creams
made from the amputated limbs of children.
Suburban families prop up their smiles
with the amputated limbs of children.
The news man lies and in his eyes
you see the amputated limbs of children.
The podium man smirks and between his teeth
are the amputated limbs of children.
And the little girl cries,
and the news man ignores her,
and the podium man smirks at her,
and the bank boy bites her,
and the machine rolls on,
limbs fed into its furnace with pitchforks,
crushing houses and blackening the sky,
poisoning the oceans and bloodying the earth,
while the air fills with the crying of children,
for limbs that will never come back,
for homes that will never come back,
for mothers that will never come back,
for childhoods that will never come back,
for brightness that will never come back,
for innocence that will never come back,
for dreams that will never come back,
for joy that will never come back.
And we are here,
eating cheesy meatcarbs and watching funny haw-haws
and gossiping and prattling and wishing we looked better
and trying not to think about all the tiny arms and legs
we see covering the earth
whenever we step outside.

Wonderful conversation. Thanks.
Ireland here. This is what education should be like.
💚🇮🇪💚🇵🇸💚🇿🇦💚
We know from several CENTURIES of occupation, dispossession and repression my sept’s lands in Gleannfeisc
The Irish aren’t Muslims. Ridiculous comparison. The Irish don’t groom their children to become martyrs. Unless I missed something?
@@rolandthethompsongunner64 You did miss something. Prof Khalidi described why the Palestinians are resisting Israeli, and it's not because they're Jews. He uses the hypothetical of Nationalist Danes invading Palestinian lands instead of the Zionists. The Palestinians wouldn't resist based on religion (roughly 20% of Palestinians are Christians), but because resistance to land theft is a natural response to others stealing your land.
And your implication that "Muslims" groom their children is rather Islamophobic, and wrong historically. Again, Palestinians are resisting their Occupation, just as the Irish resisted the British occupation. Religion is incidental (though making a good dividing line for lazy thinkers.)

Yes indeed start with the British, they dont call the Union Jack flag 'the butchers apron' for nothing!
I find it interesting that the holocaust is a big topic in the U.S. , even though it didn’t happen in the U.S. and lasted about 6 years. But 250 years of slavery, that did happen in the U.S., is rarely discussed and is actively shunned in some places. There are significantly more holocaust museums and monuments in the U.S. than museums and monuments re. slavery.
EXACTLY! As if Juice are the only ethnic group who experience mass gen 0 cide during the war. Gypsy, Socialist Germans, Croatians, Libyan, Chinese of Nanking, Filipinos, Korean, Indonesian, Malays, Indian and many more group that were mass massacred during WW2. The casualty of the Russian Slavic people alone were more than any Jews who died in the holocaust, they literally burned Russian ethnic group alive in their churches when the Naxi invaded Russia. Unfortunately only Jews are allowed to claim victimhood.
That’s because the US is full of hypocrisy! When people say MAGA, I wonder when was it great, according to them? During the Trail of Tears? When only white men had rights? During slavery, Jim Crowe? When the National Guard gunned down innocent students during a rally for peace? When was this mysterious period in which the US was great??
@@wewenang5167 Palestinians seem to be very good at claiming victimhood.
Slavery "rarely discussed" in the US? Only if you simply ignore all the times it is discussed!
Great interview🔥🔥
Wow... the truth prevail
Something interesting that I’ve observed about this conflict is that there is little regard given towards the “native” Jewish population that we know had continual existence in the land throughout all of the conquests over the last 2000 years. I think this is fascinating because while some people use Zionism to frame the situation as colonial, the existing minority makes the endeavour repatriation. Nothing is ever put forward to suggest whether the native Jews also saw the Zionists as coloniser others, or whether they saw it as the diaspora helping free them from (an extended timeline wise) the remnants of past colonial efforts.
The second thing that also makes the conversation interesting is that the Arabs are taken to be natives despite there being a lot of migration under mandate and the ottomans. Why does their increase in population (granted smaller, but also UNRESTRICTED) via migration never come up in these conversations.
The territory is far more nuanced than most academics will say. The weird thing is, picking sides is the problem in this conflict.
Divide and rule used by western powers and zionists example berbers vs arabs in north africa, christians, druze lebanon those were mercenaries
Jews in muslim world were safe and During the Reconquista both Muslims and jews were kicked out from Spain
You don’t have to pick sides, just issues. Such as Genocide is bad. People have right of return. Occupation bad. Apartheid bad. Colonialism bad.
@@bosnianlady10 Genocide is bad, yes. Does a war campaign automatically equal genocide?
People have a right of return? Ok. Did the European Jews have a right of return also, or do you see it as colonialism? Why the distinction? Muslim rule caused the Jewish and Christian populations to dwindle.
Apartheid is bad. So far the only place where this regime has been found is South Africa. It is not enough for the state to have different rules for its citizens vs non-citizens (every country does: eg. I live in the U.K. on a visa and I am not entitled to benefits, whereas all British citizens are). To say it’s apartheid is also to say there’s only one state from the river to the sea - Israel - and is itself a denial of Palestinian statehood in a portion of the land.
Colonialism bad. Yes. So you hate the Arab conquests that put the Arab Muslims in the region in the first place, right? We’re on the same page. Great.
@@zosiawane8235 Unlike you, I can say all those things are bad without being biased. Whoever does it , it’s bad. No exceptions. My people were colonized by Ottomans, that was bad. It was not the worst colonialism in history but no one wants overlords. Israel is not just a colonial state, they are a settle colonial state, which means people will be displaced. So great we agree colonialism is bad, who ever does it.
As for Apartheid, most human rights groups have said that Israel has an Apartheid. Having two different license plates, two different freeways and a law that clearly says Jewish ethnicity is superior are all evidence of apartheid. Thousands of Palestinians have lost their right to live there just for living abroad for few years, while Jews living in Texas and have no family ties to Isreal are offered paid tours to persuade them to come with full citizenship promised. Laws make it clear that Jews are regarded as a superior ethnicity explicitly underlining that “ Israel is the historic homeland of the Jewish people and they have an exclusive right to national self-determination in it”.
As for Genocide , it’s true that a war doesn’t make genocide automatic. But when you cut water, electricity, food, medicine….that is. When you destroy most of the homes, roads, educational, medical, cemeteries and openly talk about killing all people, then it is. "There are no innocent civilians in Gaza," Herzog said. "Bring down buildings!! Bomb without distinction!! Stop with this impotence. You have ability. There is worldwide legitimacy! Flatten Gaza. Without mercy! This time, there is no room for mercy!," wished Revital Gottlieb, a member of the Israeli Knesset.
"If all of Gaza are refugees, then let's scatter them in the world. There are 2.5m people there, each country would take in 20K people, 100 countries, it is humane, it is required," suggested Ram Ben Barak, member of the Israeli Knesset. That is ethnic cleansing which often accompanies genocide.
Yeah people have right to return, what Israel is doing is only allowing anyone with a hint of Jewish ancestry to return. Jews posting their DNAs and being shocked that most of their genetics come from Europe and some none from Middle East , yet they get automatic entry. I was driven out of my home. One thing we got was right of return. Those that drove us out made it hard to regain back out homes, our land but we were lucky that we don’t have something like a Israeli lobby and the international community put pressure for right of return to be enforced.
Loved this session, it was so powerful, detailed and yet not boring or off topic even for one moment.
Rashid Sir was just so lucid and thanks Tom., amazing job
