Acerca de esta escucha

In spring 1936, the Holy Land erupted in a rebellion that targeted both the local Jewish community and the British Mandate authorities. The Great Arab Revolt would last three years, cost thousands of lives, and cast the trajectory for the Middle East conflict. The revolt was the crucible in which Palestinian identity coalesced, uniting all in a single struggle for independence. Yet the rebellion would ultimately turn on itself. British forces' aggressive counterinsurgency took care of the rest, finally quashing the uprising on the eve of World War II.

To the Jews, the insurgency would leave a very different legacy. It was then that Zionist leaders began to abandon illusions over Arab acquiescence, to face the prospect that fulfilling their dream of sovereignty might mean forever clinging to the sword. The revolt saw thousands of Jews trained and armed by Britain. This is the story of two national movements and the first sustained confrontation between them. The rebellion was Arab, but the Zionist counter-rebellion—the Jews' transformation—is a vital element in how Palestine became Israel. Today, the revolt's legacy endures.

Palestine 1936 is the origin story of the world's most intractable conflict, but it is also more than that. It reveals world-changing events through extraordinary individuals on all sides.

Important history-Horrible narration

The Great Revolt of 1936 is an important piece of history to understand contemporary Arab (Palestinian) vs Jewish (Israeli) history. The narration here is mechanical (probably AI) is horrible. I had to listen at 1.5 speed

Fascinating pre-play of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict

I did not know before listening that the two-state solution is an old idea from the mid 1930s. The reasons for vagaries of the policy of the British colonists Kessler makes clear. Although I am well versed in the conflict I did not know the extent to which the British kept switching sides. The section on the White Paper of 1939 is spellbinding. The analysis of the long term effect of the 1936-39 Arab uprising on their economy and culture is interesting.

The more things change, the more they stay the same

Astoundingly fascinating and well-written history of the past hundred or so years of the conflict. Highest recommendation. Unfortunately, many of the toxic attitudes that gave rise to the conflict are virtually unchanged today.

Good book. Poor performance.

Poor narration. Stilted, monotone, almost like an AI voice in timber. Would have been a 4star overall with a better narrator.

Excellent

Gained an even deeper understanding of the relentless Palestinian religious jihad/war against Israel, Zionism and the Jewish People.

Who is this narrator?

This is a meticulously researched book on a difficult subject; it is balanced and clearly based on well-established facts and first hand accounts. But the person narrator is doing the book such an injustice- he speaks in a monotone and puts emphasis on weird parts of sentences- he almost sounds like a robot! Audible, can you find a better narrator for this fantastic and important book? It’s very dense and would benefit from a (much) more dynamic reader!

The people with the deepest pockets win the war.

This is a story of cash poor Palestinians with property who sold it to Jews at inflated prices. Over time the Jews continued to purchase property until the Palestinians were about to become a minority. The poor Palestinians without property got the short end of the stick. After a while they were willing to die to get “their” land back.

Multiple perspectives

I liked how the events were often told using Jewish, Arabs and British accounts in this book.
