#RashidKhalidi: ‘Israel’s Nightmare Scenario’ (1 of 2)
[Interview with Haaretz]
from #WorldOutlook
December 11, 2024
The following interview first appeared in the #Israeli daily #Haaretz on November 30, 2024. “#Khalidi has been described,” wrote Haaretz, “as the most significant #Palestinian intellectual of his generation, as the successor to Edward Said, and as the preeminent living historian of #Palestine.”
In this wide-ranging interview, Khalidi returns to important themes he has discussed at other times in the 14 months since the October 7, 2023, Hamas-led attack on #Israel. (World-Outlook has previously published four such interviews.) “One of the problems we have today,” he explains, referring to the Palestinian struggle, “is disunity and the absence of a unified national movement and of a clear, unified strategy. Without that, you’re not going to liberate anything.”
