Occupation, war crimes, human rights infringements.
As war rages in Ukraine, it can be easy to forget that Ukrainians and other victims of war now share these experiences with the longest-standing group of world refugees, the Palestinians.
Here in Britain, discussion of the intersections between Israelis/Jews and Palestinians, has so often turned toxic, that most people have given up. There is a huge amount of misinformation circulating. There’s also fatigue. ‘Why should we care about something that is happening over there that has little to do with us?’ The reality is that this is the biggest lie of all, because Britain played a huge role in the Holy Land when the first seeds of spiralling violence between Israelis and Palestinians, were sown.
