Conflict in the Middle East

Conflict in the Middle East

This may be a fools errand but Episode 180 is a complex and controversial one, maybe I should stay out of it but we've tackled difficult subjects before on the podcast and I did one on the war in Ukraine so this is my attempt to explain the historical context behind the current conflict in the Middle East. It's not full of hot takes, although there is some spice here and there, but more an attempt to create some kinda timeline, and look at some of the reasons why we are in the state we are in right now. It's not meant to take one particular side over the other, and I realise of course this is not what people want....they want good vs. evil binary reactionism but that's not the style here on Agitators Anonymous, so you'll hear about the Bible to the Balfour declaration!
