Is Israel an Occupying Power? | The Israeli-Palestinian Context | Unpacked

Israel’s presence in the West Bank, or Judea and Samaria, has a laundry list of labels, many of which have been built on historical assumptions and modern ideas. At the top of this list is one word that has been capitalized on by the Palestinian cause, political left, and anti-Israeli groups for decades: Occupation. In this episode, we seek to thoroughly understand how “Israeli Occupation” came to be synonymous with the call for Palestinian statehood and what this means for peace between Jews and Arabs.

About The Israeli-Palestinian Context: Learn about one of the most contested issues of our time, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, through a nuanced exploration of multiple perspectives. In this series we put radical and superficial opinions to the side in order to ask highly debated questions about Zionism, discuss accusations of apartheid, explain who Israelis really are, and more—all in hopes of leading to a better future for both sides.

About Unpacked: We provide nuanced insights by unpacking all things Jewish. People are complex and complicated — yet we’re constantly being pushed to oversimplify our world. At Unpacked we know that being complex makes us more interesting. Because of this, we break the world down with nuance and insight to drive your curiosity and challenge your thinking.
